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

The 2020 BMW X4 M comes with all wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 8-speed shiftable automatic.New high-performance variant of the X4.Turbocharged six-cylinder offers up to 503 horsepower.Adaptive dampers, anti-roll bars and BMW's Active M Differential increase handling performance.

Pros
Tremendously powerful six-cylinder engine
Unique styling stands out from other compact crossovers

Cons
Rear headroom is a bit tight
The sloping roofline compromises cargo space
Android Auto is not available

By: 
edmunds.com

Underneath their fastback bodies, the X4 M and X4 M Competition are both packing serious muscle. These hot rods are coming to BMW dealerships this fall to take their place among the rest of the brand's performance SUVs, including the new X3 M, which arrives around the same time.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Balanced power delivery
Impressive grip and balance
Fun on tap in 4WD Sport setting
Transmission refinement

Cons
Punishing ride
Only subtly different next to regular X4
Not as pointed as a full-fledged M4
