Pros Cons of BMW X3

Pros

  • Genuine sports SUV performance
  • A highly futuristic cabin
  • Improved low-speed ride quality
  • Diesel engine option for high-mileage drivers
  • Massive legroom in the second row

Cons

  • Physical climate control buttons are gone
  • Lower dashboard plastics
  • Sub-par seatback pockets
  • Polarising exterior styling

Verdict

Removing physical AC buttons is a polarising industry trend the BMW X3 has embraced, and its flashy exterior styling might not suit everyone's taste, too. However, the rest of the mechanical package is incredibly strong. Also, switching to regular tyres makes it one of the most comfortable SUVs in its class over bad Indian roads. And the addition of the high-power 30 xDrive petrol variant finally gives enthusiast drivers a reason to look at the X3 again.

Bilal summarises,

“The X3 is not for the average buyer. It is for the enthusiast who still believes an SUV can entertain.”
