Acura TLX PMC Edition interior — The dual-screen dash layout makes the car's interior look a bit dated, but the sport seats do a great job of holding you in place.

<h2>Volvo S60 T6 R-Design ($55,490 as driven)</h2> In S60 parlance, T6 means all-wheel drive and a 316 horsepower four-cylinder.

Volvo S60 T6 R-Design interior — The interior features minimal clutter and is extremely comfortable, with thoroughly bolstered leather front seats.

<h2>Infiniti Q50 Red Sport 400 ($59,635 as driven)</h2> The Infiniti, in performance Red Sport trim, is the priciest and most powerful car in our comparison, but is worth the money for those who have it.

Infiniti Q50 Red Sport 400 interior — Also, it’s a high-end car with, mercifully, a standard mechanical shifter, meaning you won’t have to re-learn how to put your car into reverse.

The Bowie, Maryland, mother who was shot in the head by her romantic partner Thursday was holding the couple’s 2-month-old baby as they argued about school supplies, according to charging documents. The woman was rushed into surgery and, as of Friday afternoon, remained in critical condition, police said. Her partner, Kimball Hinton Jr., 41, has been charged with first- and second-degree attempted murder, first- and second-degree assault, three counts of reckless endangerment and other firearm-related charges in connection with the shooting. One of the couple’s six children, who were all in the house on Myrtle Avenue in Bowie when the shooting happened, called police at 4:16 p.m. Thursday and said her mother had just been shot by her father, the documents state. Hinton himself called police two minutes later, according to the documents, and admitted shooting her.
