Wi-Fi hotspot now standard.No other significant changes for 2021.
Pros Wickedly quick acceleration Grip and handling are excellent Still as practical as a standard X3
Cons Excessively stiff ride, even in the softest suspension setting Tire roar on the highway can be wearing on long drives
For 2021, the X3 M adds newly standard features and some fresh options. Most notably, its infotainment system now includes Android Auto, which had been conspicuously missing. Likewise, a Wi-Fi hotspot and a one-year subscription to SiriusXM satellite radio with 360L are now standard; a matte wood finish is a new interior option. BMW also changes the Competition designation from a model to a package.
Pros As quick or quicker than many sports cars, mind-boggling agility for an SUV, more practical than a sedan.
Cons Ride is stiffer than desired, fewer driver-mode settings would be fine, how much power is too much power?

It was quite possibly the first successful river crossing in a Lamborghini in decades. Not that others haven't tried. Plenty of curious things, we imagine, have happened in Lambo's road cars. And certainly someone forded a river in an LM002, back when the Rambo Lambo was fresh. But this was different. This Lamborghini, the Urus, isn't a devoted exotic. And it isn't a sworn off-roader. It's neither, and yet it's both. We went to Iceland to get familiar with the brand's second-ever SUV and to see if Lamborghini's carbuilding talents extend beyond its glittering wedges of decadent speed.
Pros Enormous spectrum of capability, exclusive blend of German temperament and Italian flair, Lambo quick.
Cons Complex, heavy, Lambo price tag.
