TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2017 BMW X5 boasts a solid set of powertrains and features that move the sedan toward the top of any list of luxury SUVs.

Few vehicles match the 2017 Range Rover's luxury and performance on pavement; fewer still can keep up with it when the pavement ends.

TCC Likes

Bright and stunning interior cabin
Very advanced safety features available
Strong powertrains, top to bottom

Stunning accommodations for all
Stellar ride, handling, and performance
Wide range of engine choices

TCC Dislikes

Exterior is languishing, a bit
Very small third row
Price can balloon up to six figures (!) now

Touchscreen interface lacks finesse
Perhaps too easy to drive off road
Shockingly expensive when loaded up
