The 2019 BMW X3 ranked #5 in Luxury Compact SUVs. Currently the BMW X3 has a score of 8.6 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 13 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Powerful engines
Nimble handling
Spacious, supportive seats
Above-average cargo capacity

Cons
Rivals are more opulent inside
Above-average starting price

Fifteen years ago, it might have been difficult to foresee the success of the X3. Back then, BMW's 3 Series wagon set the standard for the class and offered all the practicality you could want in a vehicle that size. Why get something that didn't handle as well and got worse fuel economy? But that original 2004 X3 helped pioneer the entry-level luxury SUV class, and the 2019 X3 is now a hugely important staple in the BMW lineup.

Pros
Both available engines are fuel-efficient and powerful
Wide variety of standard and optional features for personalization
Plenty of room for front and rear passengers

Cons
Android Auto is conspicuously absent from the options list

Kia makes a better BMW and charges less for it.

Pros
Gutsy optional V-6 engine,
flashy exterior styling,
big-time bang for the buck.

Cons
Nervous handling at the edge of its envelope,
won't satisfy badge snobs,
less than posh interior.

By:

The 2020 Kia Stinger ranks near the top of the luxury small car class. It offers a roomy and posh interior, intuitive tech features, composed handling, muscular engine performance, and good safety and predicted reliability ratings.

Pros
Punchy turbocharged engines
Balanced ride and handling
Large cargo area
Easy-to-use touch screen

Cons
Below-average fuel economy

By: 
usnews.com

Pros
Sporty and stylish appearance stands out
Entertaining levels of performance
Refined interior with hatchback utility
Generous warranty coverage

Cons
Limited space for rear passengers
Ride quality can get a little jittery at times
Sloping roofline hampers rear visibility
