What automatic petrol SUVs do you recommend with AWD?

I want to change my 2012 Subaru XV for a new car. I've tested a BMW X1 and a Peugeot 3008 but have now found out that the 3008 is not AWD. I'm looking for a petrol SUV, automatic, AWD 1.6 - 2.0. What do you recommend? At the moment I'm edging closer to the BMW.
