Reviews Summary

Since its inception in 2003, the BMW X3 has grown to become one of the brand’s top sellers. And starting with its second generation (circa 2010), the luxury compact crossover has been built at BMW Spartanburg—the automaker’s only United States manufacturing facility. Incidentally, because Spartanburg is the global producer of every gas-powered BMW crossover besides the X1 and X2, the plant also boasts the highest production numbers of any BMW plant worldwide. One can speculate that the popular X3 has a lot to do with that.

Last redesigned for 2018, the X3 receives a rather hefty mid-cycle refresh for 2022. Although the xDrive30e plug-in hybrid has been dropped from the lineup, updates to the remaining models include design tweaks, new engines, more technology, and an expanded suite of safety features.

Reviews Summary

In 2012, Jaguar sold only three models, none of which attracted anyone seeking practicality. Low to the ground, rear-wheel drive, and packed with big V8 engines, these cars were expensive—and incredible to drive. Today, Jaguar's lineup is double the size and offers everything the modern luxury buyer wants: All-wheel drive, fuel efficiency, and lower price tags. The new 2018 E-Pace, a compact version of the midsize F-Pace, is Jaguar's second SUV. Even as an entry-level car, the E-Pace can still be prohibitively expensive. But as the alternative to German and Japanese brands, it's also one of the most fun and stylish small luxury SUVs.
