The Infiniti QX50 is one of the most driver-focused and enthusiast-oriented vehicles in its segment, and its distinctive styling sets it apart from the crowd.
The BMW X3 is more fuel-efficient, drives well, and offers more room in the back seat and cargo bay.
The Audi Q5 looks and feels great, but it can get expensive quickly, and the ride skews a little harsh at times.
The Volvo XC60 isn't as much fun to drive, but better accommodates the family in a very sleek, stylish crossover.
And, the Acura RDX is like the value choice here, with lots of technology, a nice enough cabin, and decent driving dynamics, without the risk of hitting $60,000 after options.

Among compact crossovers, the 2015 BMW X3 doesn't try to be rugged; instead it's one of the sportiest and most fuel-efficient in its class, and this year's new sDrive and diesel models add to that while the lineup gets even more tech and active-safety options. |
