Horsepower That Hits Different
The X3 30 xDrive delivers a punchy 255 horsepower, coming from its 2.0-litre turbocharged I-4 engine. On the other side of the garage, the X3 M50 xDrive flexes harder with 393 horsepower, powered by a 3.0-litre turbocharged I-6 that’s all about smooth muscle.

Performance in Every Turn
Both trims feature All Wheel Drive and an 8.0-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, so regardless of which X3 you're in, you’ll feel the road hug in all the right places. Front strut and rear multi-link suspensions work together to deliver that signature BMW smoothness, whether you’re easing through suburban curves or pushing the pace on the 401.
Exterior Vibes You Can't Miss
The X3 30 xDrive sits on 19-inch aluminum wheels, giving it a clean, confident stance. If you want a little more edge, the X3 M50 rides on 20-inch aluminum wheels, making its intentions known before the engine even starts. Both trims turn heads, but the M50 comes dressed for a bolder entrance.
Inside, It’s All About You
No matter the model, air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, parking assistance, and all the creature comforts are standard. The real game changer lies in the extras—the X3 M50 steps up with even more premium features and trim detailing, giving you a cabin that’s both plush and performance-inspired.
Sound That Moves You
Both models come with 2 LCD monitors, SiriusXM satellite radio, Bluetooth, HiFi sound, and turn-by-turn navigation, so you’re always in control and always connected. Whether it’s morning podcasts or late-night playlists, the tech is crisp, quick, and easy to live with.
Safety Comes Standard
ABS, brake assist, power locks, side and front airbags—everything you expect in a premium SUV is right where it should be. Both trims offer the same high-level safety features, meaning you’re never compromising on peace of mind.
