TCC’s Bottom Line

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

The 2022 Infiniti QX50 and QX55 crossovers have a sense of style and stand-out features, but they’re uninspired to drive.

TCC Likes

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

Curvy bod
Impressive driver-assistance tech
Turbocharged power

TCC Dislikes

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

The QX55’s more costly
So-so infotainment setup
Mostly devoid of fun
