Plus-size whips so comfy you may never want to arrive

TOURING SEDAN, MAYBACH LANDAULET Regarded as one of the world’s most exclusive luxury cars, Maybach is a name that inspires awe the world over—or at the very least prompts some catchy Jay-Z lyrics. The Landaulet has raised the bar even higher with an open-top rear seat, so pampered passengers can catch some sun while the chauffer remains undistracted. A powerful V12 engine means the Landaulet can get you to your destination fast, but since it also comes with reclining seats with built-in footrests and pulse massagers, you may not care. (Starts at $1.3M; maybach-manufaktur.com)
CROSSOVER, BUICK ENCLAVE Not only is this luxury crossover one of the quietest around, but it can also seat up to eight people. Its one-touch power liftgate makes it easier to unpack that picnic basket you loaded in for the trip, and for those ladies dressed to kill, there’s an elevated footrest, which “adds comfort for drivers with high-heel shoes.” As a GM vehicle, Enclave also comes with access to OnStar—a virtual in-car assistant for all your travel needs. (Starts at $33,505; buick.com/enclave)
CONVERSION VAN, EL KAPITAN Luxury conversion vans are one of the most understated ways to shuttle around in opulence. Conversion companies such as El Kapitan can outfit your van with everything from the standards—flip-down flat-screen TVs and heated seats—to the more exotic, including power sofa beds, writing desks, iPod charging stations, and ice chests to keep food or drinks cool.

SPORT UTILITY VEHICLE, LINCOLN MKX
Imposing enough to not be bullied while merging into traffic, but sexy enough to raise eyebrows at the valet parking kiosk, Lincoln’s MKX will easily make your trip more memorable. Plus, with in-seat heating and cooling to keep your body temperature just right, reclining rear seats for the comfort of your passengers, and Microsoft’s SYNC software that allows you to perform tasks like making phone calls using voice commands, you just might want to move in. (Starts at $35,605; lincoln.com/mkx) For more plus-size vehicles, click here. For an extended review of Lincoln’s MKX, click here.
