TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2021 Alfa Romeo Stelvio sexy looks match its agile moves, but the interior package is compromised. The 2020 Audi Q5 has become the default luxury crossover SUV for many drivers for a reason: it’s very good. The 2021 BMW X3 is a do-all small crossover loaded with luxury, technology, and usability, with a dash of sporty personality.
