Drive All the AMG Rides You Like with Mercedes-Benz’s Upgraded Vehicle Subscription Service

Some things like pizza, dogs, and underwear are best to own outright. For others, however, it makes better financial sense to rent. That includes anything prone to rapid depreciation, like RVs, designer clothes, and luxury cars. Mercedes-Benz’s Vehicle Subscription Service aims to tackle the latter by providing discerning drivers with an all-you-can-drive luxury carshare program. This year, the service is getting a significant upgrade to include the carmaker’s elite AMG-badged vehicles.

Mercedes-Benz’s Vehicle Subscription Service provides subscribers with unlimited access to a set range of luxury rides. New for 2020, Mercedes-Benz is expanding its Atlanta collection with an AMG Exclusive tier. The flagship plan includes the iconic automaker’s most exclusive, high-performance vehicles. The means everything from fast but family-friendly options like the AMG C63 Sedan to the off-road-worthy AMG G63 SUV to the absurd AMG GT Roadster with a 0-60 time of just 3.6 seconds.

The Vehicle Subscription Service has been available in Nashville, Tennessee and Atlanta, Georgia for some time. Until now, however, the service has only offered three tiers of membership priced from $1,095 to $2,995. The entry-level Signature plan includes a dozen of Mercedes-Benz’s base-level — though still quite luxurious — rides from sedans and SUVs to convertibles and 8-passenger vans. The Reserve plan upgrades to more performance-minded vehicles. With the Premier plan, subscribers gain access to some of the German automaker’s best and fastest cars, including G Wagons, AMG Coupes, and SL550 Roadsters. The same three tiers are still offered in both cities.

The $3,595-per-month price tag for the AMG Exclusive tier might seem excessive, and of course it’s unrealistic for most of us. Consider, however, that the service is an all-in-one program that includes vehicle maintenance, 24-hour roadside assistance, and unlimited mileage. What’s more, every subscription provides a substantial insurance policy with $1,000,000 liability coverage. It’s all offered on a month-to-month basis with no long-term commitment. Every new booking is handled through a dedicated mobile app where subscribers can “flip” to another car at any time, and have it delivered cleaned and fully fueled — all with just a few taps.

For a slightly more affordable alternative, Audi Select is a similar luxury vehicle subscription service starting at just $995 per month.

Jeep unveils the all-new Cherokee to debut late 2025
New Jeep Cherokee coming late 2025

When the Cherokee left Jeep's lineup at the end of 2023, it created a noticeable gap between the smaller Compass and the midsize Grand Cherokee, leaving a lot of potential buyers wondering what happened. The Cherokee has always been a strong player in a super competitive field, going head-to-head with big names like the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, Chevrolet Equinox, and Hyundai Tucson. So, it was a bit confusing when Jeep pulled the plug on the last generation without having a replacement lined up. After two years of sitting on the sidelines, Jeep is finally bringing the Cherokee back.

Recently, Jeep shared the first teasers of the new SUV ahead of its big reveal and expected launch later this year. Fans of classic Cherokees might be excited about the new model’s design, which goes back to a boxier, more rugged look that feels true to Jeep's roots. To highlight this, Jeep put out a cool image showing the new model alongside the older XJ-series Cherokees from the '80s and early 2000s. The 2026 version sports a flatter front end and squared-off headlights that remind many of the classic models, and the roofline is more upright, giving it a tougher vibe.
“The all-new Jeep Cherokee headlines our efforts to deliver more product, innovation, choice and standard content to customers than ever before,” said Bob Broderdorf, Jeep CEO. “Jeep Cherokee will boast competitive pricing that strikes at the core of the largest vehicle segment and sits perfectly between Jeep Compass and Jeep Grand Cherokee to bolster our winning mainstream lineup.”
Right now, Jeep offers a mix of vehicles, including gas engines and plug-in hybrids with their clever 4xe technology available in models like the Grand Cherokee and Wrangler. There’s a chance the new Cherokee could include a basic gas engine—maybe the same turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder found in the Compass—alongside a 4xe hybrid model or even an all-electric version. For now, more details are still under wraps, but fans are eager to find out what Jeep has in store as the launch date gets closer.

The 2025 BMW X7 M60i may be the sportiest full-sized SUV on the market
Driving this, you forget you're in a full-sized SUV
Front 3/4 view of a a blue BMW X7 M60i

The luxury SUV market is a little crowded these days, so sometimes it’s difficult to stand out. There’s an argument that you should play to your historic strengths if you want to succeed, and that’s likely what BMW has done with the X7 M60i SUV. The vehicle is much larger than your average Blimmer, but at its core, it has all of the qualities that BMW customers tend to appreciate.

I recently spent some time looking at BMW’s biggest SUV, which has been enhanced with an “M” package. So, before hopping in the driver’s seat, I was already expecting a good amount of comfort paired with exceptional power. This is why the X7 M60i did not disappoint on either front.
It’s very aggressive, like a tiger on a leash
