Pros Strong off-road capabilities Wealth of customization options High-tech safety and off-road features Smooth ride for an off-road-oriented SUV
Cons Options can get pricey Cargo door is heavy and opens toward the curb
Pros Modern design looks cool Awesome off-road capabilities Lots of personalisation options
Cons A Discovery is better at seating seven Top models are Range Rover money Land Rover's poor reliability record
Land Rover is introducing a V-8 engine into the Defender lineup for 2022: the 518-hp Supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 that's found in the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport models. The V-8 will be available on both the two-door 90 and four-door 110 models; a high-end Carpathian Edition model will also sport the V-8 engine.
Pros Ultra-capable off-road, surprisingly refined on-road, well-equipped interior.
Cons Disappointing fuel economy, desirable features carry high price tags, six-cylinder isn't as quick as we'd hoped.
Wi-Fi hotspot now standard,no other significant changes for 2021.
Pros Tremendously powerful six-cylinder engine Grip and handling are excellent Sleeker styling than the related X3 M
Cons Excessively stiff ride Rear headroom is a bit tight Sloping roofline compromises cargo space and visibility
Like several other BMWs, the X4 M gains Android Auto and SiriusXM satellite radio as standard features for the 2021 model year. Otherwise, the flashy fastback SUV remains unchanged.
Pros Abundance of horsepower, impressively quick acceleration, deft handling.
Cons Stiff suspension can be harsh over bumps, not as practical as X3 M, polarizing rear styling.
Pros Balanced power delivery Impressive grip and balance Fun on tap in 4WD Sport setting Transmission refinement
Cons Punishing ride Only subtly different next to regular X4 Not as pointed as a full-fledged M4
