Still the ultimate well-rounded BMW?
Choosing the best family car to suit your exact needs is all about compromise. Sure, it's nice to have something low-slung, sporty, and dripping with sex appeal, but just as great is having room for all your friends and loved ones, as well as great fuel economy and comfort.
Now, there’s an all-new model out, and it’s safe to say that it’s one of the most important launches in the brand’s history. Besides, over 3.5 million have been sold since its introduction, and the thoroughly redesigned version has a lot on its shoulders. The market responded positively to the changes that were implemented in the second generation. It was no longer just a more affordable alternative to the X5, it became a product that could truly stand on its own.Moving to the now-outgoing third generation from 2017 to 2024, it refined the formula of the model prior to it. Solid, competent, and versatile are just some of the words that best suit it.
That said, the side profile can be called ‘unmistakably X3.’ If you take a look at all the sides of all the models that have come before, the resemblance is there. So while it’s the most radical looking X3 to date, at least BMW didn’t forget its roots and that customers still want some resemblance from generations that have come before.But if you think you’ll get some visual relief when you get inside, you’ll be sorely mistaken.
For the Philippine market, we’re likely to get the 20d xDrive model because this country still prefers diesels for anything that resembles an SUV. Mind you, the specs aren’t bad as it still makes 197hp and 400Nm of torque. Oh, it’s a mild-hybrid too so it should get good fuel economy.We took the 20 xDrive version out for a spin as it’s likely to become the best-selling model worldwide aside from the diesel variant.
