The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating
6.8
8.0
7.0

TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2017 BMW X3 continues its run as one of the best compact luxury SUVs on the market—even in the face of much newer competition. The 2017 Jaguar F-Pace does an excellent job of putting just as much emphasis on sport as on utility. The Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class makes a terrific combination of the features and practical needs most buyers want in an attractive package.
