The BMW X6 has powerful engines and a luxurious, high-tech cabin. You’ll forgo some space and practicality versus a BMW X5 though, and spend more doing it.
Pros SUVs don’t come much quicker Fantastic infotainment system Impressive interior quality
Cons X5 equivalent has better rear headroom Audi RS Q8 is easier on the eyes Smaller boot than every alternative
While the regular BMW X6 is in its fourth generation, the high-performance 2020 X6 M has just embarked on its third. It's hard to tell the difference between the all-new model and the one it replaces, but upon closer inspection there are noteworthy improvements. The 2020 iteration is more powerful for one, adding between 33 and 50 horsepower. Its bodywork received a subtle but sharper-looking makeover, and its cabin has been overhauled with a modernized aesthetic and better technology.
Pros Astonishing performance, unapologetically brutal design, long list of standard features.
Cons Hugely impractical, limited rear visibility, thirsty for fuel.
The 2020 BMW X6 M comes with all wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 8-speed shiftable automatic.600 horsepower in standard trim or 617 hp with the Competition package.All-wheel-drive system maximized for handling performance.Adaptive suspension with active roll stabilization.
Pros Massive power from both available engines Startling acceleration at any speed Impressive handling performance High-quality interior packed with features
Cons Stiff and sometimes unyielding ride Distinctive styling limits rear headroom and cargo capacity
The 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee impresses with style and performance, but lags behind in safety and fuel economy.
Pros Loads of style after all these years Plenty of powertrain options Capable off-road Trailhawk Five adults fit comfortably Hilarious 707-hp Trackhawk
Cons A $100,000 Jeep? Lackluster efficiency Subpar safety scores Aging interior
If it was good enough for 2019, it's good enough now: the 2020 Grand Cherokee SRT is unchanged.In a world where nothing succeeds like excess (and with apologies to Mr. Wilde), the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT is just enough. Under its hood is a 475-hp V-8 that partners with an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. With launch control, the SRT can rip from zero to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds. Aggressive bodywork, a sport-tuned suspension, and robust brakes help the SRT handle and brake well enough to make some sports cars jealous.
Pros Incredible acceleration, bold exterior design, more utility than SRT versions of the Dodge Charger or Challenger.
Cons Penchant for fuel, expensive, big-bro Trackhawk exists.
The 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT comes with four wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 8-speed shiftable automatic,Optional diesel engine is no longer available
Pros Plush interior with plentiful luxury and technology Enough off-road ability to conquer practically any trail Available V8 engines offer substantial power Impressive tow ratings for the class
Cons Firm ride quality may disappoint, even with air suspension Underwhelming acceleration with base V6 Modest quality of cabin materials can be hard to justify
