The new BMW X6 has a similar philosophy to the 2009 Infiniti FX--a coupelike body with crossover capability--but it's far more expensive than the FX, and less distinctive, we think.
The Land Rover Range Rover Sport is pricey, too, but its creased lines and British heritage stand out in opposition to the Infiniti FX's organically curved body.
Volkswagen's Touareg sport-ute seats five and offers a big diesel engine option--and some European cachet--for about the same price as the FX.
