Pros Things we like Good electric/hybrid handover Fuel and battery efficiency Build quality Not so much
Cons Hefty price Compromised load area Under-servoed brakes Paranoid parking assistance
The X3 has never done BMW much credit, but the current one is a thorough enough job to take on the class best.
Pros Good ride and handling, fine engines, well-finished cabin, many high-tech options
Cons Note that word 'options'. And the steering is a bit numb, not helped by the thick steering wheel
PROS Good power and response in hybrid mode Premium styling and high-quality cabin Plenty of space for adults front and rear
CONS Not a lot of grunt in EV mode Short real-world EV range Battery packaging impedes on cargo space
Pros Great shape Wild Prime performance Hybrid efficiency Lots of standard active safety Many flavors of all-wheel drive
Cons Buzzy base inline-4 Not very powerful (except Prime) Small-ish rear seat Top trims cost how much?
Pros Quiet interior and comfortable ride quality Abundant cargo and passenger space Easy-to-use controls Extra off-road capability of the TRD Off-Road trim
