The BMW X3 is most often compared to the Mercedes GLC Class for good reason: both are German, offer good luxury, with a wide range of performance potential.
The GLC is more stylish, but the BMW offers a slightly better base powertrain.
The Audi Q5 is relatively conservative next to both—it’s the understated one of the bunch.
The Acura RDX goes all-in on tech and an advanced powertrain that includes a 10-speed automatic.
The Lincoln Corsair offers stateliness instead of performance or flash.
The conservative style of the Volvo XC60 is our off-the-beaten-path pick.
