2022 BMW 4-Series Get Pre-Approved 2021 BMW 4-Series vs. 2021 Acura TLX The 2021 Acura TLX is sought after for its sharp looks, top tier performance, and opulent cabin. But is it enough to beat the 2021 BMW 4-Series, a car which is prized for its dynamic and responsive engine, advanced technology and uncompromising comfort? Design & Style The newest BMW 4-Series comes in the form of a coupe or convertible which is compact and impressive. While it uses the identical platform found in the 3-Series, it has been modified to be longer, wider and lower, which results in extra space and even better performance. In the cabin passengers will be presented with a ten inch touch display with seats that feel wonderful to sit in. The kidney grille in front is stretched vertically and those that purchase the M4 variant will get extra vents to distribute air to the engine. While past Acura TLX models used the same platform as the Honda Accord, the 2021 version uses a dedicated one. It has revised engines and a sleek, sharp exterior which is extremely aerodynamic. Its cabin also comes with a ten inch touch display and is lit by ambient lighting and its seats are powered and can be adjusted in many ways. Technology & Safety The Acura TLX has received a perfect 5 stars NHTSA rating, along with an IIHS Top Safety Pick. It is equipped with an extensive array of safety functions, including pedestrian detection, automated emergency brakes, cruise and lane control and the ability to monitor the attention of the driver. It can also identify traffic signs automatically, and luxuries within its cabin include an ELS audio system with thirteen speakers, a camera with surround view and wooden trim that is open pore. The BMW 4-Series is equipped with all the countermeasures found in the Acura, including blind area monitoring, the ability to detect pedestrians, high beams which are automated, emergency automatic brakes and parking sensors. Luxuries within its cabin include iDrive multimedia, a moonroof, climate control, wireless mirroring for smartphones and seats made with carbon fiber. Performance Those that purchase the Acura TLX Type S will get standardized all-wheel drive with a V6, 3 liter engine that is turbocharged and capable of generating 355 horsepower. Those that purchase the BMW M4 Competition can get a dual turbo 6 engine that is 3 liter and capable of generating 503 horsepower. The Bottom Line Though the Acura TLX is a good looking car that is well equipped with safety features and accolades, the BMW 4-Series is equally equipped yet has a significant performance edge, and this combined with the Acura’s hard to use infotainment system makes BMW the winner.

2022 BMW X6 Get Pre-Approved 2021 BMW X6 vs. 2021 Bentley Bentayga When it comes to a large stylish SUV with a coupe-like feel, the 2021 BMW X6 delivers that and then some. This iconic SUV from BMW checks all the boxes when it comes to speed and handling. Despite its sloping roofline, the X6 still has a roomy cabin and large trunk, making it perfect for family trips or shopping runs. Equally decked out in luxury features is the 2021 Bentley Bentayga. The 2021 edition is just as luxurious as its predecessors and delivers a superb driving experience as well. Though not as sporty as the BMW X6, this is a car that most drivers will be happy to drive, assuming that they can get over the eye-popping price tag. Design & Style When it comes to styling, there are few SUVs that match the 2021 BMW X6. The road-hugging body with its beautiful contours stands out anywhere. But most recognizable of the features is the coupe-like rear that skillfully combines the sportiness of smaller coupes with the stance of a large SUV. The cabin is equally well decked out and the instrument panel is well organized. The 2021 Bentayga is equally luxurious with quilted materials and leather all over the cabin. The exterior styling is a little problematic though as it borrows from Bentley’s sedans. While the design theme looks great on the sedans, it somehow does not translate as well in the SUV. Technology & Safety Tech features in the BMW X6 include a 12-inch infotainment display that is easy to use and features crisp clear graphics. Also standard in the X6 are features such as smartphone integration, satellite navigation, and much more. The vehicle also comes with a premium 12-speaker audio system as well as phone charging outlets. In the Bentayga, you get a host of features as well including satellite navigation and more. Performance Under the hood, the 2021 BMW X6 is motivated by a large turbocharged V6 engine with the provision to upgrade to a V8. Both engines deliver superb performance and the X6 feels like a sports car rather than a large SUV. Ride dynamics are equally impressive with the cabin insulation delivering a quiet ride. The Bentayga is equally fast, powered by a turbocharged V8 engine. The large box shape however affects ride dynamics, making the Bentayga somewhat unwieldy around corners. The Bottom Line While the 2021 BMW X6 and the 2021 Bentley Bentayga are both superbly engineered vehicles, the Bentley is not a vehicle that is designed to offer thrilling rides. Instead, it is a luxury SUV that is more at home outside an art gallery. The BMW X6 on the other hand delivers comparable luxury with excellent ride dynamics. It also comes at a far less price than the Bentayga, offering more value for money. It is without a doubt the better of the two vehicles. Ready to Schedule a 2021 BMW X6 Test Drive Today? At Competition BMW of Smithtown, we give you a chance to experience the pure thrill of driving a 2021 BMW X6 for yourself. Come and visit us today or give us a call at (888) 734-3331 to schedule a test drive.

2022 BMW X5 Get Pre-Approved 2021 BMW X5 vs. 2021 Cadillac Escalade If you are in the market for a large luxury SUV, the 2021 BMW X5 is the car for you. Decked with luxury features and offering superior driving dynamics, the X5 can handle just about anything that is thrown at it. It is perfect for your family camping trip thanks to its spacious cabin and generous trunk space. It is also at home outside a posh art gallery thanks to its good looks. When it comes to the 2021 Cadillac Escalade, you also get one of the top SUV models by GM. Comfortable to drive and with relatively decent handling, the Cadillac Escalade is an outstanding vehicle. Let us see which of these two cars should be in your garage. Design & Style For 2021, BMW has enhanced the iconic kidney-shaped grille to make it bigger and sleeker. This gives the X5 an outstanding presence that one would expect from a big luxury SUV. Inside the cabin, the vehicle’s premium look and feel have been enhanced by more luxurious materials on the inside. The attention to detail that is a trademark of BMW is extended to the layout of the cabin where everything is placed exactly within reach. On the other hand, the 2021 Cadillac Escalade is well designed as well and features a variety of premium materials on the inside. The boxy shape of this SUV makes for terrible ride dynamics although it does offer plenty of space in the cabin and the trunk. Technology & Safety Given that this is one of BMW’s top-range vehicles, the 2021 BMW X5 comes with a bevy of tech and safety features. A 12.0 display screen controls the infotainment system. Other tech features include smartphone integration and a 12-speaker audio system that delivers crisp sound. With the 2021 Cadillac Escalade, there is also a lot of tech features that come as standard. The infotainment in the Escalade is however not as responsive as that of the BMW X5. Performance When you decide to purchase the 2021 BMW X5, you get a choice of engines ranging from a turbocharged V6 to a twin-turbo V8. Both deliver superb performance and handling is great. Transmission is via an automatic 8-speed system that allows for smooth acceleration. The 2021 Escalade also features a powerful V8 engine with plenty of thrust. Power however must be properly harnessed in order to be of any value and this is where the Escalade struggles. Ride dynamics are not as good as those in the X5 and the Cadillac feels bulky around corners. The Bottom Line When comparing these two cars, it is clear that both are well powered and have a lot to offer any discerning driver. However, the BMW X5 is far better engineered and delivers a superior ride as compared to the Escalade. All said, the 2021 BMW X5 should be the vehicle you go for in 2021. Ready to Schedule a 2021 BMW X5 Test Drive Today? At Competition BMW of Smithtown, we give you a chance to experience the pure thrill of driving a 2021 BMW X5 for yourself. Come and visit us today or give us a call at (888) 734-3331 to schedule a test drive.

2022 BMW X4 Get Pre-Approved 2021 BMW X4 vs. 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan With great looks and a practical cabin design, the 2021 BMW X4 is an all-rounded car than can still deliver a thrilling ride. The car features a large roomy cabin and generous trunk space. In the 2021 edition, this great SUV has been refreshed to enhance its sporty features. You cannot go wrong with the BMW X4. While the 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan offers a composed ride, it is hardly what can be called a sporty SUV. It is however roomy and practical. Let us compare these two vehicles and see which one you should purchase. Design & Style With a refreshed design that features a sloping roofline, the BMW X4 is as sporty as ever. BMW has also done an outstanding job with the body contours and the sleek tail-end of the X4. Despite this roofline, there is ample legroom and headspace in the back of the car. Unlike many other SUVs in this category, the car has plenty of trunk space as well making it a practical car for everyday use. When it comes to the 2021 Tiguan, you get a vehicle that is designed more for functionality rather than excitement. The interior is comfortable though a little bland. Technology & Safety The BMW X4 features a variety of tech such as a 10.0-inch infotainment system. Commands are swiftly executed and the fact that the system can handle voice commands only makes it better. Safety features include blind-spot monitoring as well as automatic emergency braking. The Volkswagen Tiguan comes with a 9-speaker audio system which most users will find satisfactory. You also get phone charging ports and smartphone integration. Most other features come as options. Performance The base model of the BMW X4 features a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine that makes the X4 very fast. Using BMW’s superior cabin insulation technology, the 2021 X4 delivers a quiet ride even at high speeds. Driving on rough surfaces is easy with the X4 as the suspension system is engineered to cancel out most of the surface imperfections on the road. When it comes to the 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan, you get a fairly composed ride although this changes as you move up the rev meter. The car handles poorly at higher speeds and the cabin can get very noisy. The Bottom Line When all is said, the BMW X4 and the Volkswagen Tiguan are two very different cars. The Tiguan is built for sedate functionality while the X4 delivers both functionality and driving thrills. With a superior cabin, superior-tech to boot, the BMW X4 is clearly the car you should go for. Ready to Schedule a 2021 BMW X4 Test Drive Today? At Competition BMW of Smithtown, we give you a chance to experience the pure thrill of driving a 2021 BMW X4 for yourself. Come and visit us today or give us a call at (888) 734-3331 to schedule a test drive.

2022 BMW X3 Get Pre-Approved 2021 BMW X3 vs. 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque With a remarkably sporty design and roomy cabin, the 2021 BMW X3 combines good looks and functionality that are hard to match. This is a car that is designed to thrill and it does so in spadefuls. For 2021, the X3 gets a few touchups that make it better than ever. On the other hand, the 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque is an equally stylish car with a sporty design. Space however is a problem and the design poses several challenges when it comes to everyday driving. Here is a comparison between these two cars and a verdict on which one is the best. Design & Style For 2021, BMW has retouched the front grille of the X3 making it sharper and sportier. Most other things remain the same including the sporty stance, sharp body contours, and much more. The cabin is also refreshed and features more premium materials than before. The rear seat offers ample legroom as well as headspace despite the sloping roofline. When it comes to the Range Rover Evoque, you get a unique look that certainly will make heads turn. Land Rover has added new sports rims to this car so buyers get to customize their Range Rover Evoque even more than ever. The downside to this unique body design is that this SUV has serious space issues. Another problem with the design is that the sloping roofline makes it harder to use the rearview mirror. Technology & Safety The 2021 BMW X3 features a 10-inch infotainment display that responds to both voice and touch commands. The system is fast, intuitive, and features excellent graphics. The voice command module also makes it easier to operate the system when driving. Other features that come as standard on the BMW X3 include smartphone integration among others. When it comes to the 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, standard tech includes a 10-inch infotainment system and many other features. Performance The BMW X3 is powered by a two-liter turbocharged engine that gives this SUV incredible power. Acceleration is swift and sustained. When it comes to ride quality, BMW’s superb cabin insulation technology helps to keep most of the road and engine noise out of the cabin. The X3 handles well ad corners are dispatched efficiently. When it comes to the 2021 Range Rover Evoque, you get a 2.0-liter engine that can be a bit sluggish. Still, the car delivers a fairly good performance and is good enough for everyday driving. The Bottom Line While these two cars are stylish and sporty, only the 2021 BMW X3 delivers the sort of ride quality that you would expect from a sports SUV. Fast, comfortable, and highly functional, the BMW X3 easily wins this comparison. Ready to Schedule a 2021 BMW X3 Test Drive Today? At Competition BMW of Smithtown, we give you a chance to experience the pure thrill of driving a 2021 BMW X3 for yourself. Come and visit us today or give us a call at (888) 734-3331 to schedule a test drive. Our dealership staff is always on standby to assist you, and we look forward to serving you in the best way possible.

2022 BMW X1 Get Pre-Approved 2021 BMW X1 vs. 2021 Honda CR-V When it comes to superbly engineered SUVs, nothing comes close to the 2021 BMW X1. This compact SUV features a roomy cabin and a generous trunk space, making it one of the most practical SUVs out there. Even more important is that this does not interfere with its sporty credentials nor its drivability. On the other hand, the 2021 Honda CR-V follows the long line of fantastic Honda SUVs that have proven to be practical and reliable. Though not as much fun to drive as the 2021 X1, the 2021 CR-V nevertheless ticks a number of boxes when it comes to practicality. Here is a comparison between these two popular SUVs. Design & Style The 2021 BMW X1 is a perfect blend of fun and utility. Styled to be a head-turner, the X1 features an aggressive stance and sharp contours across its body. With large sporty wheels and a road-hugging stance, this is a vehicle that will always stand out in any parking lot. The interior is equally tasteful with a well-designed instrument panel to ensure that nothing is ever out of reach. When it comes to the 2021 CR-V, you get a roomy SUV that also has been retouched for 2021. For this model, Honda has finally abandoned the boxy shape of previous models for a sleeker look. The interior is comfortable but very basic. Technology & Safety For tech and safety, the 2021 BMW X1 gets a generous amount of tech and safety features. These include a great infotainment system that runs on BMW’s iDrive software and features crisp clear graphics. Other tech features that come as standard include a lane departure warning system as well as blind-spot monitoring. For the 2021 CR-V, you get a very basic audio system that is controlled from a five-inch screen on the dash. Almost everything else in the 2021 Honda CR-V comes as an option. Performance The 2021 BMW X1 is powered by powerful turbocharged 2.0-liter engine that is connected to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Churning out an impressive 200hp, this keeps the 2021 X1 fast and nimble. Ride quality is superb and BMW’s superior cabin insulation technology ensures that the X1 delivers a quiet ride indeed. When it comes to the CR-V, the ride quality is of significantly lower quality. The Honda CRV is motivated by a smaller 1.5-liter engine that is mated to a CVT transmission. While this is adequate for basic motoring needs, this is not a vehicle that is designed to offer any thrills on the road. Ride quality is poor as well with road noises making their way into the cabin. The Bottom Line While the 2021 BMW X1 is a superbly designed SUV that offers both thrills and practical value, the 2021 Honda CR-V is oriented towards functionality. With a superior design, better performance, and more tech features, the BMW X1 easily wins this comparison. Ready to Schedule a 2021 BMW X1 Test Drive Today? At Competition BMW of Smithtown, we give you a chance to experience the pure thrill of driving a 2021 BMW X1 for yourself. Come and visit us today or give us a call at (888) 734-3331 to schedule a test drive. Our dealership staff is always on standby to assist you, and we look forward to serving you in the best way possible.

2022 BMW 7-Series Get Pre-Approved 2021 BMW 7-Series vs. 2021 Chrysler 300 The 2021 BMW 7-Series is the flagship BMW sedan and so no effort was spared to ensure that this large sedan reflects the best of BMW engineering. The 7-Series is decked out with creature comforts that make it an outstanding executive car. However, despite the large size the car is a thrill to drive and handles like a sports car. On the other hand, the 2021 Chrysler 300 is also fairly large and comes with a choice of a V6 or a V8 engine. Unlike the 7-Series, the 300 suffers from build quality. The cabin features plenty of sub-standard materials that make it hard for this car to compete with its rivals. Here is a comparison between these two large sedans. Design & Style Given its status on the BMW range of vehicles, the 2021 7-Series is an outstanding sedan that exemplifies what a luxury sedan should look like. From soft leather-covered seats to polished silver knobs, the 7-Series is a luxury hotel suite on wheels. The cabin is roomy with instruments exactly where you would expect them. For those looking to be chauffeured in this luxury sedan, BMW offers an extended wheelbase version with even more legroom at the back. When it comes to the 2021 Chrysler 300, the styling in the cabin is attractive but feels a little dated. In higher trims, you get a leather-covered steering wheel as well as some premium materials in other places. But the 300’s cabin is a far cry from the luxurious interior of the 7-Series. Technology & Safety The BMW 7-Series comes with so much tech as standard that most other cars in this category cannot keep up. Satellite navigation, 12-inch infotainment display that handles, voice, touch, and even gesture commands. You also get wireless charging, smartphone integration, adaptive cruise control, and a lot more. When it comes to the Chrysler 300, some tech is available as standard including an 8-inch touchscreen that controls the infotainment system, smartphone integration, and more. Most of the good stuff however such as wireless charging or satellite navigation are only available as options. Performance When it comes to what is under the hood, buyers of the 2021 7-Series can expect to get a choice of engines namely a V6, V8, and V12 turbocharged engines. All three are superb and propel this large sedan at an unbelievable speed. Acceleration is not only powerful but remarkably smooth, thanks in part to a finely tuned transmission. The cabin is comfortable, quiet and road imperfections are cancelled out long before they get into the cabin. The 2021 Chrysler 300 on the other hand comes with a choice of V6 and V8 engines. Power is not a problem here but ride quality is. The cabin is not properly insulated and the stiff suspension makes for an uncomfortable ride. The Bottom Line While these two large sedans have a lot to offer, only one is truly an executive sedan. The BMW 7-Series cocoons its passengers in a cloud of luxury while delivering ride dynamics that are comparable to a sports car. This makes it the undisputed winner in this comparison. Ready to Schedule a 2021 BMW 7-Series Test Drive Today? At Competition BMW of Smithtown, we give you a chance to experience the pure thrill of driving a 2021 BMW 7-Series for yourself. Come and visit us today or give us a call at (888) 734-3331 to schedule a test drive.

2022 BMW 2-Series Get Pre-Approved 2021 BMW 2-Series vs. 2021 Audi A3 If you are looking for a sporty sedan that will turn heads wherever you go, then the 2021 BMW 2-Series is the car to go for. You get many tech features that come as standard as well as a roomy cabin. For those long trips, you also get ample luggage room that can fit numerous travel cases. All said, the 2-Series is an incredible sports sedan. When it comes to the 2021 Audi A3, you get a well-styled sub-compact sedan that has been updated for 2021. With bi-xenon headlights and large sporty wheels, this is a car that is going to wow drivers. Design & Style The 2021 2-Series is a car that is designed with motor enthusiasts in mind. With its large wheel arches and handsomely contoured body, the 2-Series is at home on the race track as it is on a shopping trip. The cabin is also well done, with an ergonomic design on the instrument panel. This ensures that every button and knob is within easy reach. With the A3, you get an equally well-styled car that features LED taillights among other features. The interior is also well done in the understated style that is a feature of all Audi cars. Space is problematic though and the luggage area is tiny. Technology & Safety When it comes to tech features, buyers of the 2021 BMW 2-Series get a host of tech as standard. This includes an infotainment system that offers real-time traffic updates. Also standard is smartphone integration and a responsive infotainment system that is super responsive. The system runs on iDrive, BMW’s highly innovative software. This means you get crisp graphics and intuitive commands. With the 2021 Audi A3, you can expect a fairly decent amount of tech as well. This includes a mobile internet hotspot as well as adaptive cruise control. The only problem with the A3’s tech is that commands are not executed as easily as in the 2-Series. Performance The 2021 BMW 2-Series comes with a turbocharged 2-liter engine that ensures this sports sedan lives up to its billing. Acceleration is smooth and the vehicle is stable even when cornering. BMW’s superb cabin insulation technology ensures that the 2-Series delivers a quiet ride even under high revs. The 2021 Audi A3 on the other hand features a 2-liter engine that delivers a fairly good performance. Handling is a bit troublesome and the Audi is a little sluggish when launching from a complete stop. Still, this will not trouble most people as the A3 is quite ok for everyday driving. The Bottom Line These two sports sedans have a lot to offer drivers. While the differences may not be much, they are significant. For example, the 2021 BMW 2-Series is a far more practical vehicle thanks to its large cabin and generous trunk space. It also drives better than the Audi A3. For this reason, the BMW 2-Series easily wins this comparison. Ready to Schedule a 2021 BMW 2-Series Test Drive Today?

2021 BMW X6 Get Pre-approved 2021 BMW X6 VS 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Velar 2021 BMW X6 vs. 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Velar Stylishly fashioned with the trademark sloping roof and coupe-like rear, the 2021 BMW X6 remains one of the most iconic vehicles in the BMW stable. The 2021 X6 is not just a pretty face but it delivers superb performance, thanks to its turbocharged V6 engine. This is a car that has it all; luxury features, sporty performance and ample space inside the car. For the 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Velar, the styling is excellent although given that the same design cues are used by Land Rover in a number of their models, it is starting to look dated. Still, the Range Rover Velar has a lot to offer. Here is a comparison between these two cars and which one comes out on top. Design & Style The 2021 BMW X6 is almost certain to beat every other car in its category when it comes to styling. This unique coupe features a unique design without compromising interior space or even luggage space. Unlike most other SUVs with sloping rooflines, using the rear-view mirror is not compromised either, a great feat of design by BMW engineers. The interior is spacious and even the people on the rear seat have enough space to stretch their legs. With the 2021 Range Rover Velar, space is problematic, thanks largely to the design of the car. Tall passengers in the rear seat would have a problem, especially over long trips. The interior styling is as one would expect, real luxury with premium materials used all over the cabin. Technology & Safety When it comes to tech features, the 2021 BMW X6 comes standard with smartphone integration as well as satellite navigation. There is plenty of more tech in the X6. The infotainment system is controlled by a 12-inch infotainment display that handles both touch as well as voice commands. This makes the 2021 X6 a much safer car to drive as you don’t have to take your eyes off the road to change radio channels or change the cabin temperature. The 2021 Range Rover Velar on the other hand comes with a ten-inch infotainment display. While easy to use and intuitive, the graphics are not as high quality as one would expect from a car of this pedigree. Performance The 2021 BMW X6 is powered by a V6 turbocharged engine although buyers can opt for a V8 version if they would like more power. However, this is hardly needed as even the base engine delivers power in spadefuls. The car handles like a true sports SUV and the suspension cancels out most of the surface imperfections regardless of the terrain that you are driving on. The 2021 Range Rover Velar on the other hand is touted as an off-roading car but with the sluggish base engine, one is likely to struggle making this a reality. The 2021 Range Rover Velar comes with a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine, replacing the turbocharged V6 that was in the 2020 edition. This is where the biggest problem with the 2021 Range Rover Velar lies. The Bottom Line All said, these two SUVs are likely to please most drivers. However, the Range Rover Velar falls flat when it comes to engine performance. The decision by Range Rover to switch to a 3.0-liter engine seems to have affected the Velar’s performance. Other problems such as cabin space make the 2021 BMW X6 a clear winner in this comparison. Ready to Schedule a 2021 BMW X6 Test Drive Today?

2022 BMW X5 Get Pre-Approved 2021 BMW X5 vs. 2021 Land Rover Discovery Sport The 2021 BMW X5 is a large and luxurious SUV that has plenty to offer. Being one of the flagship SUVs from BMW (the others being the X6 and the X7), the 2021 BMW X5 is suitably decked with luxury features. The large SUV has plenty of luggage and cabin space, which ensures that you can go for long drives with your family without any problems. The 2021 BMW X5 is a great choice when you need performance backed by excellent ride quality. The 2021 Land Rover Discovery Sport is also one of the top SUVs by Land Rover. The 2021 Discovery Sport is full of luxury features and tech. Here is a comparison between these two cars. Design & Style When it comes to design, the 2021 2021 X5 has been redesigned for 2021. It features a fresh and bigger grille thus giving it a sportier stance. The 2021 X5 retains its flared wheel arches as well as its large wheels. Inside, you get various leather trims and many other luxury features. The instrument panel is well designed and intuitive, meaning that everything is within reach. When it comes to the 2021 Land Rover Discovery, you get the same luxury feel that you can expect from a car of this pedigree. Everything feels premium and the car is stylishly designed in line with Land Rover’s most recent design cues. Trunk space is not generous though so this car may not be ideal as a family carrier, especially for long trips. Technology & Safety Tech features in the 2021 BMW X5 are understandably top of the range and come in plenty.
