10. Buick Enclave

This car must be satisfied on number 10 because of inadequate design. Buick Enclave is a car that has the style and slim, but unfortunately the car design hampering the visibility and even when the car was under the sun, the eye was blinded by the chrome is applied in the car. On the positive side, spacious interior and cargo space is quite good. Prices start at US$ 35,515.

9. Lincoln MKX

MKX crossover was the baby of the Lincoln vehicle lineup. This car’s interior is less attractive because it is made of cheap plastic and the brakes are fewer grips. But the interior and the trunk are wide enough, but are not enough. Prices start from US$ 38,845

8. Infiniti EX35

Like Lincoln, EX35 don’t have a good appearance. But the car is built with well enough quality to provide good driving experience. But for a car costing US$ 33,000, you don’t get a lot of spacious cabin and trunk. EX is not bad, but you will be forced to sacrifice practicality.

7. Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class

For matters of parking, this car is the best. But is it enough? Mercedes GLK has the handling and driving way with this car also comfortable. But unfortunately like Infiniti, practicality is behind.

6. Cadillac SRX

Styling and sleek are two words that can describe this Caddy crossover. The interior is comfortable and very luxurious. However, you don’t get a very good machine with a price. If you want a good machine, you must modify its V6 engine with a lot of money. The car prices start at US$ 33,830.

5. Volkswagen Touareg

VW that larger than Tiguan. However, its fuel consumption is to wasful. The interior is less spacious but the plus side, the engine is very strong. Touareg car is very fun to drive, and the car was built to perfection. Prices start at US$ 40,850.

4. BMW X3

X3 form looks mediocre, and the basic price was not the original price of this car since BMW always provide the option of special features for prospective consumers. The good thing, this car to comfortable drive, its interior is made from high quality materials. Back seat was wide, and was quite spacious cargo. The prices start at US$ 38,850.

3. Lexus RX350

Finally back again to the Japanese car. RX350 is very Lexus, delicious driven and stunning interior. The chair was very comfortable, not to mention the electronic features are tempting. They cost from US$ 37,625.

2. Acura RDX

Acura RDX is a true crossover. Some people may not like the design. But the driving experience was very sensational. Acceleration is strong, and high comfort. Buyers of this car will get an appropriate price. This car was a good score for the crash test. Unfortunately, fuel consumption is less good. Prices start at US$ 32,520.

1. Audi Q5

This is the champion of Topspeed version crossover. The interior is brilliant and the quality of car manufacturing and exceptional handling. One thing that less from Q5 is the baggage that less extensive but still it’s a good car to take the top spot for mid-level crossover.
