10 Reasons Why You Should AVOID The NEW 2023 BMW X3!!

Are you considering buying the all new 2023 BMW X3? BMW changed the game when it introduced the X5 back in 1999, it being one of the first luxury SUVs. The X3 is now one of BMW's best-selling vehicles worldwide, providing a mix of sporty handling, upscale amenities, and good practicality.

The current BMW X3 generation first went on sale in 2018 and received a refresh in 2022. No car is perfect and that includes the new X3, so we’re going to share with you

Worse Fuel Economy Than Competitors

Looking at the gas mileage, The 2023 X3 gets an okay gas mileage for a luxury compact SUV when equipped with the base engine, which many cars already have, so there’s nothing new. It gets an EPA-estimated 23 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway with rear-wheel drive, while all-wheel-drive models get 21 mpg in the city as well as 28 mpg on the highway. The gas mileage drops with the M-tuned engines: The M40i gets 21 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway, and the M gets 15 mpg in the city as well as 20 mpg on the highway.

Comparatively, the all new Toyota RAV4 Prime has significantly better gas mileage. The new Toyota RAV4 Prime gets 40 MPG in the city along with 36 MPG on the highway.

The M40i Trim Ride Too Stiff For Daily Driving

The X3 M40i is plenty quick and sporty, but for the full-bore M-car experience, choose the X3M. Its turbo 3.0-litre inline six-cylinder engine makes 473 hp as standard but gets cranked up to 503 with the addition of the Competition package. In its testing, the X3M Competition sprinted to 60 mph in 4.0 seconds and through the quarter mile in 12.3 seconds at 117.3 mph, but at the same time, this is nothing new which other great cars are already doing.

It is surely great, but the X3M Competition is too X-tra for daily driving duty. It rides even stiffer than the already stiff X3 M40i and is much less fuel efficient at 15/20 mpg, so experts didn’t really like the stiffness.

Speed Control Problems

The vehicle speed control issues are varied. And to state their frustration with the fact that speeds are only displayed in 10 mph increments. There is an option to spend $1,000 on a fully digital display, but car experts have said that they needed to be made aware of this when they bought the car. Also, the drivers consider an accurate speedometer a safety issue, and not an optional extra.

Not So Comfortable

The front seats of the new 2023 BMW X3 deliver the comfort and support needed for the long rides behind the wheel. A wide range of adjustments makes sure a good fit for almost everyone. And on bumpy roads, the test of the BMW X3 had a reasonably busy ride quality, which car experts partially attribute to it being outfitted with the optional Dynamic Handling package. Also, the solid level of control means you feel impacts, however they don't reverberate through the cabin or bounce your head around.

Also, there's a little bit of wind noise from the driver's side window at freeway speeds. When the BMW X3 is idle, it's so silent that you'll want to check the tachometer to see if the engine is running. The engine noise is pronounced under moderate to hard acceleration, and sounded a bit unpleasant for many.

Interior Lacks The ‘Wow-Factor’

Both the new 2023 BMW X3 as well as the 2023 BMW X5 feature high-end cabin materials, but there's a noticeable difference in the ambience. The BMW X3 has an all-business vibe that could be more elegant to some consumers. In contrast, the BMW X5 has a more striking design that you might find more in keeping with its pricier asking price.

The headroom is quite the same in the two BMW crossover SUVs, but if you need legroom, you'll do better with the 2023 X5. But, the X5 has significantly more shoulder and hip room for adults riding in the back. In addition, buyers can equip the 2023 BMW X5 with massaging front seats.

The 2023 BMW X3 has 28.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind its rear seats. Folding the seats provides 62.7 cubic feet. These are good numbers for a compact premium SUV, and you might prefer the X3's conventional overhead liftgate.

The X5 continues to use a clamshell-style, split rear tailgate. The split tailgate is convenient when you need to load a few groceries, but you might need help to reach items near the second-row seat backs when the lower portion of the gate is down.

Very pointless review. So much hate for BMW. And why u keep comparing a Beamer to a Toyota 💀 I just picked up a brand new ‘23 X3 M40i Brooklyn Grey carbon metallic paint. Love it. Such a beautiful work of design art with an incredible engine. Clearly to each his own

This video should have been titled "10 Stupid Reasons Why You Should AVOID the NEW 2023 BMW X3!!" brought to you by a YouTube blogger who doesn't understand the high-performance SUV market.

What possibly does this premium high performance SUV have in comparison with a Toyota Prime? Totally different vehicle segments; performance and price-wise. Our 2023 x3 M40i will be delivered to us next month in Greer, SC at the Performance Center and we're very much looking forward to that delivery experience and cross-country drive home

I have the 208 X3 M40I. I bought it knowing it rode rougher because it has M Dynamics. You dont get the M40I or M for their gas mileage. Love my X3 M40I.

This video is like comparing a motel room to a 3 or 4 star hotel room. This video must be paid by Toyota, or the blogger is just a BMW hater. I have a 2023 X3 for a year and a half, and we have none of the problems this video mentioned, and we love it every jump into the vehicle. I don’t care what you say but it’s worth the money to us.

I have a '19 m40i and honestly i have no complaints about anything. Coming from a 335 m performance edition, i wanted the same performance but needed more space as we were adding to our family and this car met our every need. The ride is definitely busy but it is not harsh. Also im so confused why you guys are comparing an x3 m40i to a rav4 LOL not even close.

You should be comparing the XM with the Lexus RX, not a Rav 4!

It’s not a car channel it’s just Toyota Marketing Team😂 I drove a CRV for slightly about a year and changed to X3. CRV 22% cheaper, yes, but 120% less exciting, premium, and well-built.

I had the new lexus NX350, after a year I traded it for the X3. Pretty much everything listed here was worse in the Lexus

why are you comparing the X3 to the Toyota rav4 prime and honda crv? people are buying BMWs for the driving experience and luxury while Toyota and honda products are more known for reliability and practicality, not luxury and driving dynamics

I picked up my brand new facelifted and full option specced iX3 M Sport Impressive just over a week ago. This thing is an amazing ride! (I come from a fully specced 2019 Mercedes CLA Edition 1) Many of your negative points are not relevant for me though.

I would NEVER buy a RAV4. It's built on the Corolla frame and is an uncomfortable ride. I'm driving my second BMW and am BMW for life!

Comparing a car with excellent gearbox and a lawn mower which only costs less.... that's how BMW driver/sounds(internally & externally) compared to Toyota/Lexus. Pointless video.

Name a better option, please! One that will still excite a true driver every time one gets in it. One that has a true car feel still and isn’t a robot. One that you can go to work, run errands and still take on track on the weekends. One that all other compact SUV’s are looking at and saying wow we want to be like that X3. Come on man!!
