This week, Mercedes-Benz announced pricing for its redesigned compact crossover and new electric midsize crossover SUV. Both will be arriving in dealerships soon, giving shoppers the choice of either the affordable Turbo 4 or the tech-electric value onboard. It’s the epitome of an era for luxury car shoppers.
We also review the BMW iX electric crossover SUV and the brand’s flagship three-row SUV. The bright red mid-duty truck segment remains in our scope as we pit two classics against each other before an impending redesign.
This is what got us going this week.

If you’re happy with, or in love with, the electric crossover SUV’s distinctive exterior, it might be a much higher rated car for you, but we give it a TCC rating of 7.4 out of 10. .
