2020 Volvo XC90 Reviews SummaryThe XC90 has been one of our favorite family shuttles for 18 model years. This 3-row Volvo continues for 2020 as it was during its 2016 redesign, which brought dramatic new design language, chassis architecture, electrified powertrains, infotainment, and semi-automated driving capability. Among midsize SUVs, the XC90 is among the few I would recommend without any hesitation. Families who can afford to splurge will find a stylish and pampering truck that's built upon decades of safety research, which very few automakers can match. | |
2021 BMW X3 Reviews SummaryThe BMW X3 is one of the cornerstones of the luxury compact SUV market. Thanks to its combination of a spacious interior, solid driving dynamics, and wealth of technology, it’s one of BMW’s most popular offerings as well. For the 2021 model year, BMW enhances the X3 with more standard safety features and newly available in-car tech features. If you want an upscale, versatile crossover that’s just a bit more exciting to drive than most of its competition, then read on to learn more about the 2021 BMW X3. | |
