TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2016 BMW X6 stays ahead of the SUV curve with its graceful roofline and hard-charging M performance—but at what point is it not an SUV anymore?

The 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport adds two new dimensions to its performance profile: a turbodiesel V-6 and a supercharged HST edition.

TCC Likes

Fresh new face on a stylish body
More power for V-8 model
Available night vision technology

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

TCC Dislikes

Coupe-crossover styling is still a love it or leave it proposition
Ride isn't all that plush
Neither as luxurious nor as off-road capable as some alternatives

Big jump from base to Autobiography
"+2" seating is only for kids, only for very short trips
Still expensive
