TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2014 BMW X6 bends genres, in mostly successful ways; but whether you like it depends on what you're crossing over from.

The 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport has the most convincing answer to the sporty-SUV conundrum.

TCC Likes

Coupe-like profile
Front-seat space and support
Smooth-shifting automatic gearbox

Crisp styling blends Range Rover, Evoque
Rorty supercharged V-6, thundering supercharged V-8
Serene, stately cabin

TCC Dislikes

Bulky, trucklike lower half
Tight backseat headroom
Options add to the price quickly

Big jump from base to Autobiography
"+2" seating is only for kids, only for very short trips
No hybrid or diesel option--yet
