Pros Drives well, comfortable, high-quality. Not as compromised as you might think
Cons Still a bit compromised. Plus it's pricier. More testing required to measure efficiency
The Q4 e-tron and Q4 e-tron Sportback are all-new models for 2022. They join the larger e-tron SUVs and the racy e-tron GT sedan in Audi's fast-growing electric-vehicle lineup. With a base price of $44,995, the Q4 e-tron is actually cheaper to start than the gasoline-powered Q5 SUV. We recommend the more powerful 295-hp 50 model, but those who prefer a coupe-like look to their SUV can opt for the swoopier Sportback model, which is offered with the same dual-motor all-wheel-drive powertrain setup.
The Lexus LX is redesigned for 2022, LX 600 replaces previous LX 570 generation.
Pros Quick acceleration and impressively smooth power delivery Great-sounding Mark Levinson audio system Ultra Luxury trim brings first-class accommodations to rear passengers
Cons Big and top-heavy feel around turns Excessively floaty ride like a 1970s Cadillac Some driver aids can be overly intrusive Not as much cargo space as some rival SUVs
Following the last generation's 13-year run, the 2022 LX600 receives a ground-up redesign. Deliveries are set to begin in early 2022.
Pros Broad range of available trims, refined twin-turbo V-6 powertrain, more deluxe interior than outgoing model.
Cons Third row not standard equipment, F Sport model has a rough ride, not as rich looking as a Range Rover.
