The 2022 BMW X3, part of the model's third generation, is a compact luxury SUV that balances a comfortable ride with a sporty driving experience. It comes with three powertrain options: the 248-hp turbocharged four-cylinder in the xDrive30i, the 382-hp turbocharged inline-six in the M40i, and the 473-hp twin-turbo inline-six in the high-performance X3 M. All models are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and BMW's xDrive all-wheel-drive system. Key features include the BMW Live Cockpit Professional, which boasts a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10.25-inch central touchscreen equipped with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and navigation. Safety features comprise forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and lane departure warning. The M models get an additional boost of luxury with Merino leather upholstery and hands-free trunk release among other features.
