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". 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". 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". 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". 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". 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". Lipshutz opined that the single connected Louisville and Memphis "over a rattling beat", and provided "an effective contrast of mic approaches" between Harlow and Shiesty. Charts
