Best midsize luxury SUV: Audi Q7

The Audi Q7 has really imposed itself on the segment since its introduction. Even with many years under its belt, it continues to be a standard-setter in its class, thanks in good part to the continual improvements Audi has made to it. The model that lent its platform to mighty figures like the Bentley Bentayga and the Lamborghini Urus offers more sportiness and better balance than any of its segment rivals. The 4-cylinder engine of the base model is a weak spot, however, as it struggles to properly power the nearly-5,000-lb Q7.
