Jada Carson of Kazi Magazine wrote that the song's production "made for the perfect canvas for Jack Harlow and Pooh Shiesty to make their presence known in a flowing yet confident way", saying that "the wittiness of Pooh Shiesty gives the single an edge that he could only give".^[1] Carson also suggested that the song displays that "there's patience and more in-depth thoughts than just the surface-level perception for Jack Harlow", connecting it to Harlow's recent releases where he references "his position in this music industry" and "the doubt that people have about his rap career".^[1]

For The Fader, Jordan Darville called "SUVs (Black on Black)" a "catchy demonstration of Harlow's flexibility", and wrote that Harlow's brags "sound comfortable next to Pooh Shiesty".^[3] Writing for The Source, Shawn Grant said that Harlow and Shiesty "play off each other well for the banger that is soon to slide into your rotation".^[4] In GRM Daily, Courtney W said that, despite the differing styles of Harlow and Shiesty, "the two artists link up effortlessly on this track and go back to back on the bass-heavy production to flaunt their lavish lifestyles".^[5]

Billboard writer Jason Lipshutz contrasted the song with Harlow's previous single, "Industry Baby" with Lil Nas X, calling "SUVs (Black on Black)" a "grimier, more unforgiving affair".^[6] Lipshutz opined that the single connected Memphis and Louisville "over a rattling beat", and provided "an effective contrast of mic approaches" between Harlow and Shiesty.^[6]
