Edmunds says. The 2015 BMW X3 is an excellent, if somewhat pricey, choice for a luxury crossover SUV, with a broad selection of engines and wide-ranging talents.

The X3 has three available powertrains, including a 240-hp, 260-lb-ft turbocharged 2.0-liter I-4; a 300-hp, 300-lb-ft turbocharged 3.0-liter I-6; and a new 180-hp, 280-lb-ft, 2.0-liter turbodiesel I-4. Also new for 2015 is a rear-wheel-drive option, available on the X3 sDrive28i model.

Remarkable agility. Performance-minded drivers will love the BMW X3 M40i, with standard Adaptive M Suspension and M Sport Differential, as well as xDrive, BMW's intelligent all-wheel drive, for superior handling in a standout sport utility vehicle.

The F25 is the second generation of BMW X3. The vehicle was unveiled in 2010 at the 2010 Paris Motor Show. For this generation, production moved from Magna Steyr in Austria to at BMW's United States plant in Greer, South Carolina.

With the right kind of care, you can expect your vehicle to last for 200,000 to 250,000 miles - or even longer! Maintenance and care are key factors that determine a vehicle's long-term longevity, but as the aforementioned studies show, you can expect every BMW to deliver above-average results.

BMW X3 Engine Features

Based on the tamer BMW X3 compact crossover, the X3 M relies on a twin-turbocharged six-cylinder engine producing up to 503 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque in the Competition trim.

Which BMW X3 model is best? Our favourite version is the xDrive20d in xLine trim. The 190bhp four-cylinder 2.0-litre diesel engine has 48V mild-hybrid assistance and accelerates from 0.60mph in 7.9sec. It's an efficient choice, and entry-level xLine trim includes plenty of equipment.

Overall, the X3 is well-rounded, but it's the agile handling and gutsy turbo engines that make it one of our favorite BMWs and an Editors' Choice winner for 2022.
