TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2020 Acura RDX is a stylish, strong-performing crossover SUV worthy of a place on any shopping list. The 2020 Audi Q3 blends practicality, quality, and fun in a chunky but city-friendly package. The 2020 Cadillac XT4 hits the compact-crossover mark, but be prepared to spend up for optional extras that ought to be standard by now.
