The Car Connection's Take
TCC Rating
7.0 Read Our Full Review	6.6 Read Our Full Review
TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2021 Audi Q8 is an expansive–and expensive–full-size luxury crossover that doesn’t cut corners, it carves them.	The 2020 BMW X6 is the humpback version of the X5.
TCC Likes
Great space Superlative performance versions Good tech	Distinct shape Better look Impressive performance
TCC Dislikes
Conservative style Eye-watering price tag on top trims Not very fuel-efficient	Cramped rear head room Expensive Not practical for an SUV
