The XC90 receives a visual freshening for 2020 by way of a new grille and front bumper; Volvo also has restyled the XC90's wheels. Base Momentum models now come with low-profile roof rails and integrated tailpipes while sporty R-Design models swap matte silver exterior trim for gloss black. All XC90 models now come standard with a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, R-Design and Inscription trims gain front parking sensors as standard, and Volvo has tweaked the operation of both the rear cross-traffic alert feature and added active-steering support for the City Safety driver-assistance feature.

Pros
Sleek exterior, chic cabin, a plethora of standard driver-assistance features.

Cons
Unrefined engine sounds, flinty ride, laggy infotainment response upon startup.

Lincoln has given the Nautilus a thorough interior redesign for 2021, bringing the mid-size SUV in line with the rest of the company's lineup. A new dashboard design incorporates a larger 13.2-inch infotainment display running the latest version of Ford's Sync 4 operating system. Lincoln's now-pervasive piano-key shifter replaces last year's push-button setup.

PROS
Comfort-tuned suspension,
nicely-outfitted cabin,
large infotainment display.

CONS
Top Black Label model's eye-watering price,
lacks athleticism,
not as fuel efficient as other similar SUVs.
