2024 X3
The benchmark compact luxury SUV, perfected over two decades
The 2024 BMW X3 has dominated the compact luxury SUV segment for good reason: it's simply the best-driving option in its class. The xDrive30i's turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder delivers smooth, effortless power through an 8-speed automatic that shifts with telepathic precision. The X3's chassis tuning is a masterclass in balancing dynamics with daily comfort — it tracks corners with genuine enthusiasm, then soaks up potholes without complaint. The M40i adds a 382 HP inline-six for sports car performance in an SUV. The M Competition goes further still: 473 HP, 0-60 in 3.8s, from a BMW M3-derived engine.
248 hp starting at $47,700 is exceptional value.
