One of the most common comparisons in the past few months has been the one between the BMW X3, Mercedes-Benz GLK and of course, the new Audi Q5. Inone of ourwe dissected the three cars based on their exterior appearance, interior design, performance and pricing.Shortly after, we decided to takecompare it against the current X3, a comparison that will be more accurate when BMW will launch their second generation X3 next year.The fellows took the same approach of comparing the three vehicles based on similar criteria and it would be interesting to see what their conclusionwas.Which of these three is best for you? First, know that each of these three compact luxuryhas been introduced or revamped in the past two years. The BMW X3 was refreshed in 2008with an improved ride and a smoother shape; the Audi Q5 emerged brand-new in 2009; and the Mercedes-Benz GLK arrived late last year as a 2010 model.They’re state of the art, in the small-luxury-ute segment. They’re similar in size, equipment, and mission, too. Each of these compact utes has a six-cylinder engineavailable four-wheel drive (it’s standard on the Q5 and X3, an option on the GLK). Maybe most important to you, each wears a luxury-brand badge that conveys a certain standing in the world far more effectively than the badges on other very pleasant vehicles like the Volvo XC60, Infiniti EX35, even the Acura
