Reviews SummaryWithout a talented chef, the best ingredients from around the world can produce a mediocre meal. Thus, the redesigned 2016 Lincoln MKX comes across as half-baked, a stylish and remarkably well-equipped vehicle that is good rather than great. To better compete in an increasingly crowded segment, this Lincoln requires additional refinement and attention to detail. | |
Reviews SummaryWith the luxury crossover segment exploding, Cadillac is pushing to remain relevant. The outgoing SRX was a bestseller for this founding marque of American automotive, and the XT5 has a big job to do in replacing it. To that aim, Cadillac has fitted it with an excess of technology and luxury and the same lightweight construction that’s spelled success for its sport sedans. | |
