The latest Territory has the now familiar Ford trapezoidal grille with contrasting horizontal bars, a rugged lower skid plate and large rectangular foglamps with matching bezels.
Pros Smooth, powerful and quiet engine Much needed tech improvements Practical and large inside
Cons Dated interior design Heavy and not paticularly fuel efficient Age-related NVH issues
The latest BMW X3 is well worth considering if you’re looking for a family SUV with a spacious and plush interior that’s relaxing to drive.
Pros Spacious cabin Practical boot Quiet and comfortable to drive
Cons Desirable options cost extra Looks like the old car Cabin doesn’t look very exciting
The X3 also becomes a more full-fledged member of the BMW family with its upgraded interior. And at a time when some of the brand’s passenger-car offerings have strayed from BMW’s historically strong dynamics, the new X3 makes an encouraging showing there as well.
Pros Chassis tuning like BMWs of old, improved interior, plenty of passenger and cargo space.
Cons Imprecise variable-ratio steering, goofy electronic shifter, the entry-level four pales next to the six-cylinder.
