The iX is an all-new and all-electric model in BMW's lineup when it appears in early 2022.

Pros
Powerful electric powertrain,
excellent highway range,

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Roomy interior
Quick acceleration and nimble handling
Comprehensive set of luxury features and driving aids
Daring interior design

Cons
Starting price is quite high
Daring front-end design

By:

The Armada gets a significant makeover for 2021, starting with a squarer front end featuring prominent headlights. The design revisions reach out back, too, with a new bumper and taillights that are connected by a continuous trim piece. There's also a newly available Midnight Edition with blacked-out trim. Inside, Nissan redesigned the center stack and added a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay.

PROS
Serenely quiet and comfy,
smooth,
potent powertrain,
pillowy ride.

CONS
Dreadful fuel economy,
some dated interior elements,
wanders at highway speeds.

By:

The 2021 Nissan Armada is a big, comfortable brute that can tow the boat and haul the family all at once.

PROS
Spacious inside
Lusty V-8
Strong for towing
Good safety features
Value at the base level

CONS
Gas guzzler
Third row for kids only
Gets expensive
Plodding moves
