Pros
Intuitive infotainment features
Good V8 engine power
History of great predicted reliability
Quiet, comfortable ride

Cons
Cramped third row
Below-average cargo space and high load floor

By: 
usnews.com

The 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe carries over unchanged.

Pros
Seating for up to nine people
Impressive towing capacity from the standard V8 engine
Quiet and nicely trimmed cabin
Optional 6.2-liter V8 provides additional power and capability

Cons
Sluggish engine and brake responses
High trunk floor reduces cargo space and makes loading items difficult
Maneuvering in tight spaces is a challenge

The 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe carries the torch as one of the most capable SUVs out there.

Pros
Excellent V-8s
Good infotainment setup
Lots of customizability
Luxurious interior
Traditional SUV upsides

Cons
Traditional SUV downsides
Diesel or hybrid would be nice
Very, very large
Oddly high cargo floor
Crossover might make more sense

By:

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

By: 
thecarconnection.com

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.

By: 
caranddriver.com

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
