The value-oriented Select model has been deleted from the lineup for 2020, which now includes just three trims: Standard, Reserve, and Black Label. The mid-range Reserve and top-spec Black Label both come with a power liftgate as standard. In addition, the Reserve can now be had with the Lincoln Co-Pilot Plus package, which adds adaptive cruise control with lane centering, a 360-degree exterior camera system, evasive steering assist, and a self-parking feature.
Pros Cushy ride, refined powertrains, spacious and well-equipped interior.
Cons High-end models cost a pretty penny, dinky 8.0-inch infotainment screen, probably too cushy.

Volkswagen has given its compact SUV a handsome styling refresh for 2022 to help it look at home alongside the restyled Atlas and new Atlas Cross Sport mid-size SUVs.

Pros Sporty handling, spacious cabin, available third row of seats.
Cons Average acceleration, firm seats, underwhelming interior trimmings.
