The 2021 BMW X4 is a crossover worth coveting, though our money would be on the more practical, cheaper, and really not much different X3.
Pros Willing turbocharged engines Balanced handling Excellent interior tech Lots of available safety gear M versions especially fun
Cons Mega price tag So-so cargo space So-so rear-seat human space Style not for everyone
Newly standard equipment includes SiriusXM satellite radio, Android Auto compatibility, and several driver-assistance features. There are also some changes to the various option packages.The M40i’s turbocharged inline-six is impressive, but the 30i’s turbo four-cylinder provides plenty of power.
Pros Entertaining to drive, two powerful engine choices, design-forward exterior.
Cons Costs more than the X3, less cargo space than X3, tighter on rear-seat room than X3.
No significant changes for 2021.
Pros Both available engines are smooth, powerful and fuel-efficient Easy personalization thanks to abundant standard and optional features Impressive handling for an SUV
Cons Sloping roofline compromises rear headroom and cargo space
Given its price, in a sense you could argue the Everest deserves a better engine than the five-cylinder diesel under the bonnet. In our comparison of Everest against Prado, the Toyota had the quieter of the two powerplants, but the Ford provided more power and torque. That was an off-road scenario of course.
Pros Secure dynamics Well-controlled ride Capable drivetrain
Cons Limp power delivery Dim headlights No steering reach adjustment
The Ford Everest has an excellent diesel engine, can seat up to seven, and offers the option of full-time, dual-range, four-wheel drive.Ford has done a good job of hiding the ute DNA: the Everest is comfortable on all roads but still very capable off road in 4WD trim.
Pros Drives well on road, and excellent off road.
Cons Ride and handling less polished than in passenger-car based SUVs.
