TCC’s Bottom Line

Sporty and attractive, the 2022 Alfa Romeo Stelvio is fun to drive but has a compromised rear seat.

The 2022 BMW X3 crossover SUV has it all and does it all, from light off-roading to high-speed track scorching.

TCC Likes

Sensuous lines
A sport sedan on stilts
Powerful engines

The best BMW to buy
Strong engine choices
Comfortable, well-appointed cabin

TCC Dislikes

Wooden brake feel
Tiny back seat
Rising prices

More like a four-seater
A few cheap touches inside
iDrive interface isn’t to everyone’s liking
