While many vehicles in this class are similarly priced, the 2019 Land Rover Range Rover bucks convention and costs almost as much as larger compact crossovers.

PROS Striking exterior and interior design Available convertible variant is the only one of its kind Fun to drive
CONS Limited visibility, especially for the convertible Not a lot of backseat space Premium pricing compared to subcompact competitors

The newest ambitious project from Tesla is the all-electric Model Y compact crossover. Tesla founder and CEO Elon Musk touted a driving range of up to 300 miles and a zero-to-60-mph time of as little as 3.5 seconds when he unveiled the Model Y during a livestreamed event in March. The 2020 Tesla Model Y looks very similar to the compact Model 3 sedan but can be outfitted with a third row of seats for a total seating capacity of seven.
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.
