The luxury crossover segment is as crowded as ever, with each brand trying to outdo the next when it comes time for a new model.
The BMW X3 had an early start, and it's better than it ever has been–sized like the original X5 and powered by a turbo six, it's a top choice in the segment.
The Audi Q5 rides the wave of Audi's recently-discovered popularity; the turbo-four is an efficient alternative to the more expensive six-cylinder.
The Range Rover Evoque is attractive and more spacious than you'd expect–its turbo four is peppy, but it's not quite as quiet or relaxed as the rest of the Range Rover lineup.
The Volvo XC60 is exceptionally comfortable on the road and carries high safety ratings, handsome design, and a large cargo area, but falls short in fuel economy.
The Cadillac SRX has a powerful V-6 and distinctive style, but the powertrain isn't as refined and the interior isn't as nice as most of the European competition.
