I actually quite like the front end design. BMW hasn't gone bonkers - the lights and grille look well proportioned. I guess it reminds me of slightly older BMW's - same with the interior - but to me that's a good thing!

I've had my G01 LCI M40i for a little over a year now. I love it. No major complaints. The B58 is perfect for it. Handles fine. Suspension is decent, unlike the M's which are brutal. No complaints about the interior or exterior styling. I love the exterior styling. The interior is fine. My only complaint comes from the seats. My back doesn't like them. I have the heated and cooled seats. Wish the massaging seats from the M550 were offered. I got spoiled by those and I want them back. Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with the vehicle. I could do without the "mild hybrid" 48V BS and the resulting Auto start/stop, but otherwise, all good.

People seems to be 50/50 on this. I think the new curved screen looks horrible, but some friends like it. The issue is that for many people its so bad that they will just not upgrade and BMW will loose sales om it aswell due to their exterior design. Which in turn might get Germany into a recession. Mercedes, BMW could easily make great designs that would sell like crazy but insteas they are having some screen-fetisch at the moment. German buttons are better than Chinese. Germans screens wont be. BMW should have two options. One more traditional setup and one more high tech.

I've been driving this exact same car, same colour, same hybrid version since October 2021. So, here's my take on it. Brilliant!!! I even have the real M-Sports seats (not these standard seats shown here), which are a delight, both optically and from a comfort aspect. The engine, in Sport Mode, with that extra battery power to boost acceleration, is really amazing. Top speed? Well, I live in Germany so am often on the Autobahn. 200kph is no problem and the car sits like it's stuck to the road. Handling is good, interior is pleasing and very functional, I agree that the front is not the most attractive car on the road. Negatives? The battery range is crap. However.... The displayed battery range depends on how you have driven the car before depleting the battery. If you were pedal to the metal all the time, the range after the next charge will be crap. If you were driving conservatively, accelerating slowly and using the cruise control, you will get a displayed range of over 40 km. What you won't ever get is the advertised 55 kms. My last car was the 2 litre X3 diesel. The car before that was the 3,5 litre 4 Series Grand Coupé. I do have some small complaints, but on the whole am very happy. Oh yeh, I test drove the Mercedes GLC 300e Plug in Hybrid. Full battery, in October, 19 degrees C ambient temperature. Range, 19 kilometers. Yes, Mercedes bullshits too!!!

I came from a 981 Cayman S that I had driven daily for 10 years to an X3 M40i. I'm so impressed with the car, it's the perfect blend of practicality, comfort, and performance when you need it. Sure it doesn't quite have the poise and fun handling of the Cayman, but it's so much easier to live with in a 1 car garage. I was worried about reviewers saying the ride was harsh, to me on terrible Scottish road surfaces it's really comfortable without being wafty, really quiet on the interior too. Love that this model has proper buttons rather than touchscreen everything. Only thing I really miss is the Burmeister Stereo from the Porsche, the Harman Kardon isn't even close to that (although that was a £3k option so can't expect it to be. I cross shopped with a Macan S / GTS, and the BMW was £20-30k cheaper with similar options, a no brainer.

Got the ix3 that looks identical and honestly love this car. It's well built, the styling is old fashioned which for me is a positive and the amount of buttons inside is a dream (I'm old fashioned like that). Like how the front looks too and it drives better then the x5 - it just handles better and more fun. My lease is up next year and I'm most likely going to keep the car forever and get something like a used 2017 x5 for my off roading needs. Ive never had the feeling that I would want to keep a car until this one so fingers crossed nothing breaks before (or after) the next year haha!

The hybrid version is nice but regardless of the ICE version you compare it with, you will lose comfort and agility due to the additional weight.

As an ix3 owner - the 2022 update - I can only say it is the best BMW choice, no weird high luggage floor and definitely a pretty decent actual range. Plus it has no real disadvantages compared to the iX. It’s a lot of fun with the rear wheel drive! Conclusion: Plug-in hybrids are obsolete.

Some even said it is nicer to sit in than in Genesis, as you mentioned it in this video. But so far I haven't seen a video with brutal practicality honesty as you do.... Heck, maybe even do a comparison test of X3, GLC, CX-60 and Genesis!

I couldnt imagine buying an X3 at this point. The plug-in hybrid is so expensive that I'd rather just buy a more spacious EV like an Enyaq for the same price. Sure X3s are typically quite nice to drive, but for me fuel prices are really taking the joy out of driving.

I had a x3 30d m 2016 in the past, it is unbelievable to see that 7 years after that bmw still hasn't fixed their main x3 problems, eventough the customers have muscle pain from writing a million times the same annoying complaints, is it really because this car is made in and for us marked? Is it that difficult, to insulate the sound in the cabine or to fit seat belt adjustments? I don't think so, because if this was the case, why don't the competitors have to deal with those problems? So sad to see that they just don't listen to their customers feedback

I used to have an X3 M40i and averaged around 29/30 MPG, 33 MPG on a long motorway run. Why are these hybrids so poor on economy? Could be the burden of lugging around those batteries, motors and electric gear with such a short electric only range.

I must be one of the luck few, because I just took delivery of my X3 M40i last month, and it's the most comfy car I've ever owned when driving in Comfort mode and on the 19" wheels. I was pleasantly surprised since most of the review videos I've seen said that the drive in these was jarring at best. Maybe it's a brand new car with a new suspension. But this car is more comfortable than my BMW 5 Series sedan and even my V6 Toyota from before.
@MikeL-FL
@MikeL-FL Жыл бұрын
Drive a real X3M. Those have a brutal suspension. The M40i isn't bad at all. I definitely don't think its better than a 5 though ( I have the 20's without runflats). Coming from an M550 with the adaptive suspension and 4WS, that rode way better (also 20's without runflats).

I really don’t get why manufacturers are getting rid of Diesel, it’s the only fuel that can be man made and there has been clean exhaust systems in operation for more than 8 years now. Manufacturers should do a phev diesel, that uses the batteries in the city and diesel for highway driving. That technology has existed in submarines for the last 120 years
