NEW YORK AUTO SHOW: Who's Set To Take DOWN The BMW X1? Audi A4 Allroad OR Mercedes-Benz GLK?

After observing the big three German automakers at the 2012 New York Auto Show, it became abundantly clear that BMW's fast-selling X1 will receive some pressure from the likes of Audi and Mercedes-Benz.

Audi's all-new A4 Allroad marks the return of the rough and tough Allroad product that meshes the greatness of an Audi Avant in a more capable package. Note the contrasting body pieces and raised ground clearance.

Mercedes-Benz's GLK-Class has been out for sometime now but it's look was getting a bit stale, to say the least. At this year's New York show, the three-pointed star trotted out the new, updated look to combat BMW's new Stateside arrival. Though it may not look groundbreaking from an exterior perspective, note that it's interior has been completely revamped.

All of that being said, WHICH of the three catches your eye: The Audi A4 Allroad, BMW X1, or Mercedes-Benz GLK?
