Summary

Average. Revisions make the X3 better - but its still not good enough.

Styling

Revisions havent done much to sharpen BMWs weakest recent effort. The X3s frumpy back end and narrow-looking construction means it cant come close to matching the X5 for road presence.

Handling

Decent by the standards of mid-sized SUVs, the X3 grips keenly and delivers plenty of feedback to the driver.

Comfort

Ride compliance is now pretty good thanks to softened chassis settings. Refinement is good at cruising speeds, too.

Quality

Some very dubious bits of interior trim when compared to the X5 and 3 Series. Not up to BMWs usual high standards.

Performance

All engines except the most basic 2.0 litre petrol have decent amounts of urge. The 3.0 litre diesel is particularly good, while the twin-turbo 3.0 Sd has rocketship performance.

Roominess

Front and rear seat occupants enjoy plenty of space and the boot is impressively commodious too - its slightly bigger than the X5s

Costs

Tightly controlled supply is keeping depreciation under control at the moment. Petrol engines thirsty, diesels are frugal, but all are expensive to insure.

Value

Compared to rivals like the Toyota Rav-4 and second generation Land Rover Freelander the X3 looks very expensive. Youre paying for the badge rather than the car.

Stereo

Decent standard audio system works well, optional satnav is familiar from other cars in the BMW range - easy to use once youve got the hang of it.
