SUVs are fast becoming to define motoring this decade. They're massively popular and their appeal is not hard to understand: they're good to drive, practical, stylish and little more expensive to buy and run than a saloon or estate. Here we've picked four of the best mid-sized upmarket SUVs on sale, and put them through their paces. While we've ordered them, the truth is that they're all exceptional vehicles and you'll be very happy with any of them.

One of the best "condensed" reviews I have ever seen....oh, with a tiny bit of humour thrown in. Very well done.
the most biased review I have seen!
Mercedes may look distinctive on the road but it doesn't amongst other Mercedes. They're all way too similarly looking for my liking, but that's my opinion
Same story for bmw. their fronts look exactly the sane
Same story for audi. their fronts & back look exactly the same. plain,dull,boring. just different in sizes.
Doodie Berry While this is true, I do think Mercedes is still the best at copying and pasting car designs
I'd go for the GLC or the new Q5.
A great and very grown up review, better than anything on tv. Well done both of you.
Carbuyer please stop promoting british car manufacturers... the jag is not a car to compare with a merc a bmw or a land rover, because with a british point of view especially it humiliates the other cars because of that sporty way of driving and slick and expensive look, and dont get me wrong but with all those expensive options it will have a higher price tag. For instance compare it's petrol power engine version with a porsche macan or a maserati levante, that would have been more interesting, and fare as the jaguar is promoted as a sporty suv. Also, a better video is comparing x3 glc the new q5 the disc sport the evoque or the nx because they are not cars that are all about rapidly fast engines sport driving position and etc but, they show how practical they are, how comfortable and convienient they are for families, how economic they are and even their off-road capabilities. For me this video is pointless because having said that the jag is more expensive, it has the worst interior and it's really ugly from the back. Did the fancy plastics and the stupid standard infortaiment system of the jag made you more excited than the gorgeous glc's interior or the perfect bmw's system? Also, who the hell who ownes a jaguar will go off road, as the land rover is a thousand steps far away in off-roading. You can't avoid that the germans are the best in the business as they nailed the mid size, very good overall suv game, beacause of their great driving experience in town or highway(like the x3), stylish exterior or interior(like the glc) and their practicallity. And for me the true and honest ranking for the video without including the f pace is: 1.GLC 2.X3 3.Discovery Sport. I haven't said that the f pace is not a good car, actually is a great sporty fast suv in my opinion. But with making this video you brought it at another car category which makes it not as shine and special, and the main purpose of the video is getting lost. I can tell that you must take few lessons from Matt Watson at carwow....
The jag F PACE and the DISCO SPORT are the same car, engine all the running gear the floor panel are exactly the same. Its the same story with the jag E PACE and the RANGE ROVER EVOQUE. And are both Indian owned by TATA
The X3 is the best. Period.
Excellent video - my favourite of the year, I think. You two are a great double-act!
Really? The jaguar best looks? Well unless you pay over 60k for the top trim, you get your standard everyday soccer mom car.
Woody Brits testing British cars = fuck everything else
Aaarrrggghhh!
nosecomosellama Not sure if you watched the same video but there was a BMW and MERCEDES being tested(obviously Greman!)
Marko Polo thank you so much for proving my point!!! You made my day!!!!!!!!!
Woody you don’t have to pay £60,000 for the nice looking one you can get that for around £38,000 and that’s the same for the other pretty much but in the trim they had there looked horrible, especially those wheels
I agree with there reviews actually. I just turned in the land rover discovery sport off a lease and got put in a jaguar f pace. The handling on the road and interior are a notch better. In the winter will be the true test when we get snow, the land rover drove through everything I want to see how the jaguar makes out.
A good balanced review. I personally think it's GOOD that each car (along with others not reviewed here - XC60, Q5) all have their place and are slightly different to each other. Comfort, sport, off road ability, image, practicality etc.. each one excels at some but not all. My choice is still currently xc60 and the new one should be excellent.
can you do a review of the national express travel card? these cars are a little out of my price range
Bus w@anker
Your mum
@@prayerpowersr854 I think if you are looking for a good car you should go for the honda crv it is a perfect car and it is so practical but if you have just a little higher budget you should go for either a skoda kodiaq or a skoda kamiq (notice: I tried all of these cars)
Totally agree with this order, u gotta love the F-Pace
British always praise their own
Nonsense.
that is the problem for Brits reviewers
Doodie Berry. It actually isn't. It just seems to be a problem for people like you.
Aaaaand the Landrover broke down.
nailed it.
The land rover disco was like the worst reliability of all luxury SUVs. That must count for something when you buy a car...
Don Lee Hi mate, had mine 3 years, not a single problem with it, been superb. Taken it off road a fair bit here in Australia too, sand, deep mud no problem, super comfortable on gravel bumpy dirt tracks also. Infotainment is a bit laggy but the meridian stereo more than makes up for it (better than Burmester in C63s Merc) Just thought I'd put this out there as there is so much negativity on LR vehicles.
J C people have cancers and survived, people have chain smoked for 40 years and are still alive. Don’t mean cancers and cigarettes aren’t bad
Don Lee Just saying mine isn't. Jheeez, bet you're a laugh down the pub
J C nope, cuz you won’t find me at the pub. Enjoy your car and good luck
Great insight guys, appreciated, i get my 18 plate Jaguar F Pace R Sport next week, fair to say your review helped me make up my mind 👏
I totally agree with this review, however, I ended up buying the GLC as F-Pace only offered dismal discount
I thought that the BMW would win! Since he said so many nice things about it! Great review btw!
Henning Vaule Berntsen i though the same and that made me happy BMW 😍 but the new x3 is coming so...
Land Rover is best;
Best looking, most customisable, and the best off road. After all, a 4x4's intentions are to be able to be good at off roading, rather than a 'false' off roader. Maybe I'm biased because I have bought into the Land Rover brand multiple times before, but you can look at it like this " next time there is a blizzard/ flood ect outside the supermarket, do you want to look like a div or not?
TCKZ Crew I love SUVs that are real 4X4s, but the kind of people that buy these vehicles are not interested in driving up a mountain or carving through dense forest. While a Land Rover has legendary off road capability, the majority of users won't use it. After all, would you take £40000 with you into the mud?
Crap reliability
Hahah! The worst Engine ever
The BMW does NOT have the best quality interior.. I don't know you you 'test' this metric.
I'm a huge BMW fan, but seriously the X3 should get more concern by BMW's engineer
1. F-Pace
2. GLC
3. X3
4. Discovery Sport
Really useful as making this decison currently. I've had to go with the 3.0 v6 diesel F Pace. I test drove the 2.0 (which is the same engine as all the smaller landrovers) and for me it needed a bit more power.
anoying as ever ! Happy new year
Jaguar is beautiful, but the Land Rover is the best. Britain wins in my eyes
Excuse me, what? Brits? You mean Indians?
26 March 2008: Ford agreed to sell the Jaguar and Land Rover operations to Tata Motors.
June 2008: Tata Motors finalised their purchase of Jaguar and Land Rover from Ford and put them into their new subsidiary, Jaguar Land Rover.
@@VYM so it became Indian when bought by Tata from British when owned by Ford? I dont get it, is Ford a British company? BTW, JLR is based and registered in Coventry and Tata even called JLR British in their website. The cars themselves are undeniably British being designed, engineered and made in the UK with little to no interference from Tata as JLR is very independent as a subsidiary, to the point that they didnt want to give opinions about the XF when it came out in 2008, and JLR even stopped reporting monthy sales to Tata shortly after that.
Outstanding review!!!
GLC is the best.
Value 21 i agree on that
@@giorgiegetashvili4924 it actually has a steering problem that juggered and bangs at full lock and eats up tyres, look up videos on youtube
Maybe some ppl actually like hearing the engine rawr, like me. First place is the Range, Jag, Benz, Beamer.
The Jag in that trim is UGLY, and that interior looks cheap. The trim you've chosen for the test in the Merc lets it down, the Land Rover is expensive. The X3 is the oldest and yet the interior is the best in terms of material used and how everything fits together. The exterior is dated but I'd still take the X3 over the others.
Sthembiso Lebuso thanks mate, I agree too
Looks like they were advertising the jagua
next year i want to see this also with audi q5 and the brand new volvo xc60 when she will come out.
7:44 while reviewing the X3 they show the GLC's back end :D
BMW X3 !!!!
yeap... this review was like BMW X3 is better in all but tho dat design.. so 4th place :D
+Pure Cancer ikr I mean this will most probably be driven by medium-high class families who want a good badge, practicality, build quality, comfort and nice features. it is not like a convertible that has to have cool design. besides personally i like its design i mean it looks neat and aggressive.
glc the best!
U should say about the transmission tunnel in the middle seat
this should have included the Porsche Macan
Cool Maniac1989 It's too small to be put alongside these.
Make the same review pls but with the X5, range rover sport etc...
There was so much road noise in the jag and landrover
Fpace is the worst interior.. Its sooo plasticky...
It's not, check other videos of its interior especially the F Pace S it looks better with full leather/wood/alluminum interior material.
I have one and the only cheap plastic are the door bins at low level.
At 7:46 you were talking about BMW and the footage shows the back of the GLC. :D
I think the f pace is the best. It's not that loud inside, I personally think it's pretty quite
When will you review the ford kuga?
It really is time to replace the X3
ikr
2018
F-Pace looks gorgeous but the car I am looking forward to in 2017 is the new Volvo XC60. If Volvo gets the engine combination right, that cold be the 4x4 sensation of 2017.
Great review. But why no Porsche Macan?
The F pace sucks ass, test drove it last week and to be honest I wasn't impressed one bit. Furthermore, the navigation lags like a MoFo. For the money go for the Benz or BMW.
Yup, for me interior is vital!! I don't know y so many people don't care about them
can someone please tell me what colour was the f-pace here
f pace is the best looking End of Discussion
.
Great Review and I would say pretty accurate. My wife has the X3 35m diesel at the moment and it's been a fantastic car. Test drove the GLC recently and with the smaller engine it was way to underpowered and felt like a boat. We also looked at the bigger engined F pace and its great a huge amount of fun but as another comment states feels much more "plasticky". We have had a Range Rover sport before and it's unreliability has put us off Land Rover forever. In the end the winner for the new family car was the Porsche Macaan, yes its way more expensive and there is the excessive price tag you pay for Badge but it was absolutely wonderful in just about every respect. One thing which was a pain was all the buttons but other than that it wasn't possible to fault the car and the smile you get when you drive the thing makes the eye watering price tag worth while for us.

Jaguar and Land rover are now Indian TATA owned. I Like the BMWs.. though Audi Q5 is more refined
Everyone knows that now. But JLR is still based and registered in Coventry and Tata even called JLR British in their website. The cars themselves are undeniably British being designed, engineered and made in the UK with little to no interference from Tata as JLR is very independent as a subsidiary, to the point that they didnt want to give opinions about the XF when it came out in 2008, and JLR even stopped reporting monthy sales to Tata shortly after that.
Uhhh correct me if i'm wrong but isn't that the Mercedes shown at 7:46 while speaking about the BMW?
what about Audi Q5 and cayenne? which one is easy from maintenance point of view.
what about the q5 ???
Jaguar f -pace is the best looking car compared to other cars
1. Mercedes-Benz GLC
2. BMW X3
3. Jaguar F-pace
4. Land Rover Discovery Sport
I actually love the X3 interior design but the Jaguar takes my personal no°1 spot
7 seater SUV s please.
Nice review from Batch and Ginny, they work well together and appear to like each other
jags and rangeys are the best bye miles
2017 audi a5 coupe vs 2017 Mercedes c class coupe vs 2017 BMW 4 series pls!!!!!
Land Rover Discovery Sport is the best and Merc is last for me
I totally disagree as an Audi fan I am loathe to say the BMW X3 is best small SUV until the Audi Q5 gets tested..
1 jaguar 2 land rover 3 Mercedes 4bmw
how about Lexus nx?
While he tells about the interiors of all suvs, he says bmw but video screen shows the merc and vice versa. Also you tell us they are similarly priced but land rover is 10 grand expensive as tested. C'mon guys...
I got so nervous towards the end
For me GLC, F-Pace, X3 and Discovery Sport. Personally my favorite is still the BMW and it still holds strong even though the car is the oldest from all of them with a big margin.
The BMW engine must be exceedingly quiet... I recently (just over a fortnight ago) acquired an F Pace 2 litre... Used to a 3.0L V6 Jaguar...I have to say the engine/interior is quiet... and not lacking in power... in in dynamic and sport mode... very surprising.
For me:
Heart = Jaguar F-Peace
Brain = BMW X3 :)
Android Games & Tech- I couldn't agree more.
Would been nice if the Audi Q5 was in this review.
Is the Evoque not a better comp. against the Benz en de Beamer???
Marcel Boeltjes Evoque is more in the Q3, GLA, X1 Segment
Yeah the Evoque is a segment below these, it's a pretty small suv
Albert Arrabal Not, looking at his price!!!!
made a mistake with the x3. had a clip of the GLC while talking about the x3
I can imagine in 2020 Mercedes comes out with a 18 speed gearbox bloody hell only 5 years ago people thought 7 gears were too much but Lexus 10 speed like come on.
The music at the end.... anyone?
Sean lovi darude sandstorm
John Kyon Lol.. i just said the same thing to another guy just recently. Oh well..
the legend says that the bmw x3 is still stuck in 2015
where are the volvo and the q5?
What a cute couple !!! I can just imagine how there kids look like ...and the dog ...
1) Discovery Sport
2) Merc GLC
3) Jag F Pace
4) Bmw X3
K Uddin RIGHT NUMBER 1
SHOULD BE DISCO SPORT
The X3 isn’t really that bad. It has plenty or features and very nice interior quality. The interior design is nice, but now it looks a bit old. But still, respect goes to Land Rover, Mercedes, BMW, and Jaguar
Wind noise in the GLC is a serious problem.
Where have I been?
Driving over some rocks.
Erm, Audi Q5 please
q5 will surely win this test as Mat Watson said
I think the Landrover looks the best.
It would be a personal choice here i think rather than going by the review... personally i would of chose the Land Rover and my second choice would of been the Jaguar.
I am sorry,
But please don't put such an emphasis on how a family car for how it drives. The main emphasis should be placed on how the car feels (comfortability) so therefore the Mercedes should have won!!!
You are missing Q5 though. Please redo this once new Q5 is out.
And Lexus RX could also fit here.
when i see Ginny with a Merc, smile on my face, like her a lot.
"Oldie but a goodie"
And the relative price wasn't even mentioned! Not biased at all...
And then there's me... watching this video while not even being able to afford a clio.
Lovely like it
This segment is so full that you should've included double the competitors :p
Skyler91 The video would be an hour long if they did that.
Yeah, i know, but it would be a nice challenge-review ;)
you are copying carwow's head to head tests and whrere is Audi Q5
Aaand Porsche Macan and the new Q5 win.
Dmitry L ..I couldn't agree more!!
Dmitry L Porsche yes. The q5 is an overpolluting and lying expensive volkswagen.
Arven Tahtyan Porsche is part of VW as well.... And latest Audis aren't affected by diesel gate as well
Arven Tahtyan Typical anti Audi comment from someone who:
a) have no idea about cars
b) don't want to admit Audi is even better than Mercs and Bmw
That's your opinion , sales and reliability speak otherwise.
This is very biased, that Discovery and Jaguar are nowhere close to the same level as the BMW and Mercedes Benz.
Arctico leather is great way how Mercedes-Benz showing there is no need to slaughter poor cows just for bit if luxury. Arctico is also so easy to maintain and clean.
Wow OMG Beautiful Jaguar F -Pace 👊🏆🌟🚘🔝🌐🇬🇧
Does anyone know what happened to Matt? Did he punch the producer too?
DigitalDrifter Lol. He reviews cars on a channel called carwow (as if you didn't already know.)
what about Audi / Porsche / Lexus / Infiniti ? Aren't they any good ?
The video would go on forever if they included every competitor.
It would but they included quite old X3 instead of new Q5. X3 is due for replacement in 2017.
aysbg This is a UK video & James has said elsewhere that the new Q5 isn't available yet in the UK.
MrTrull1 Fair point but could have waited to include another proper competitor into comparison. All models, except for X3, are about 1 year old.
aysbg I don't think the solution is to just not do the video. These cars are just as test worthy as any others & the world does not revolve around Audi. Perhaps they should have just cut out the X3 from the test altogether - imagine the protest. It was included because they still consider it one of the best choices. Basically, they cannot win whatever they do.
Audi Q5?????
2:17 they're some nasty kerb damaged wheels😳
Where is the new Q5?
