Main theme: BMW 3 Series vs. Volvo S60
The BMW 3 Series and Volvo S60 are luxury compact sports sedans that match up closely on paper. But there's more to a car than just its specifications. That's why we put every car, SUV, and truck we buy through an intense battery of tests. And we learned a lot about these sedans by also living with them. Our panel discusses why people buy luxury compact sports sedans, how these two match up, and which one they would buy with their own money.
Audience Questions:
- Is the 2019 Toyota RAV4 interior smaller than in the previous generation?
- Should a viewer who leases a Volkswagen eGolf keep the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid on his consideration list?
- Would all-weather tires be a good choice for a Southern Californian who also likes to drive where it snows?
- Will Volkswagen diesels ever be forced off American roads?
