We are actively considering both the GLC and the X3 - you are 100% right, it really comes down to price and I agree with you, I actually enjoy driving and like feeling engaged as the driver. Maybe it’s because I’m older and grew up having to learn how to operate a vehicle without all the fancy tech. We had to know how to parallel park because the car couldn’t do it for us. We had to learn how to use our mirrors to change lanes and safe driving practices because there was no such thing as “lane assist.” I think the more aggressive styling of the BMW is attractive and appreciate that BMW is less expensive for an absolutely top notch driving experience. BMW is a winner for me. Thanks for the side by side comparison- really helpful!

This is an excellent review of these cars. Very informative - and the information is of the type that is worthwhile to know when making a choice between these two vehicles. Again, very helpful and well done.

I love how this is a side by side comparison instead of just combining your two previous reviews of those two cars.

I have the X3 M40i LCI and its a superb car. But comparing an „old“ X3 with a brand new GLC is difficult. Maybe wait until 2024 when the new X3 comes out. Great review, thanks and danke Thomas

I went with the GLC. The tech and comfort won the day.

Hi, Thomas! How would you rate them in terms of “off-road-nish-ness”? Thanks p.s.: I’ve been following the channel for ages, love it! Your simplicity and attention to detail and thorough examination are the best in the YT world! Keep them videos coming! All the best. auf Wiedersehen! 😊

Hi Thomas, I watched this video over and over again. I was considering btw X3 X5 Glc Gle. I love both Bs, and want to buy one right away but decided to wait till next X3 2024 reveals.
Expecting a lot for the next video.

Good review, thank you. On this and other reviews you have done, the X3 has had the adaptive suspension. In the US, it is bundled into a "dynamic handling package" (DHP) along with bigger brakes and some kind of higher-tech steering. To get DHP, BMW also requires purchasing the M Sport package, so overall DHP costs about $4500 more on the 30i in the US (DHP is standard on the M40i). Is it worth getting on the 30i? Is the ride in comfort mode on bad roads (=most US roads) more comfortable or less comfortable with the adaptive suspension than without it? Perhaps you are not able to answer this if DHP is standard in Germany. But so far I have been unsuccessful in answering this question using US reviews, and get conflicting answers from forums. Thanks.

Great review, Thomas. Interesting comparison, and it's really tough to decide between the two. As for noise insulation, perhaps get a sound meter to measure the noise at speed?

Thanks so much for the detailed comparison. I was in a dilemma before watching this review, now i'm leaning towards the GLC. I have a few days to make my final decision but i feel like i have so much clarity now.
