Like the RX, the Acura MDX can seat seven and comes as a hybrid, but the MDX offers more space.
The Cadillac XT5 doesn’t have the same level of standard features but is the dark sport jacket that can be used on any occasion.
The Lincoln Nautilus makes the Cadillac look like the Buick Envision or even the Chevy Equinox by comparison with a refined interior and cushy seats.
Spartan but alluring style graces the Volvo XC60, but the in-car tech can aggravate like the RX.
The aging Infiniti QX60 might be most similar to the RX but its attractive styling can’t hide the outdated interior.
