Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The Audi Q8 is a two-row SUV that radiates sportiness and luxuriousness.

Pros
Athletic enough to satisfy enthusiasts,
refined enough to coddle passengers,
great mix of luxury and technology.

Cons
Lower touchscreen can divert attention,
feels sluggish in city driving,
people-and-cargo room sacrificed to style.

Audi's big, aggressive Q8 is interesting and clever, with a side order of *whoa*

Pros
Interesting,
tech-laden SUV flagship that’s more practical and useful than it looks

Cons
It’s not exactly subtle. Or cheap

By: 
topgear.com

Pros
Handsome interior with spacious seats
Composed ride and handling
Powerful available V8 engines
User-friendly infotainment system

Cons
Below-average cargo capacity
Subpar fuel economy
High price

The 2021 Tesla Model Y's #7 ranking is based on its score within the Luxury Hybrid and Electric SUVs category. Currently the Tesla Model Y has a score of 7.6 out of 10, which is based on our evaluation of 15 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Quick and agile
Spacious, comfortable seats
Good cargo capacity

Cons
No physical controls for vehicle functions
Poor cabin assembly quality
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto not available

By: 
usnews.com

Introduced, and then discontinued, Standard Range version.Seven-seat configuration now available.

Pros
Plenty of range
Stunning acceleration, especially from the Performance model
Convenient Supercharger network for long-distance driving
Roomy seating front and rear

Cons
No Apple CarPlay or Android Auto smartphone integration
Performance model's overly stiff ride
Optional third row of seats is barely usable

By: 
edmunds.com

Other than the introduction of an optional pair of pop-up third-row jump seats, we aren't forecasting any major design or technology upgrades for the Model Y this year.

Pros
Peppy electric powertrain,
spacious cargo hold,
cutting-edge technology features.

Cons
Chassis isn't as taut as the four-door Model 3,
fit-and-finish needs polish,
too reliant on the touchscreen for simple vehicle settings.
