At the heart of it all is the iDrive interface. It’s like the brain of the car, controlling everything from music to navigation. Speaking of navigation, the X3’s system is top-notch. And the best part? It gets over-the-air software updates. That means it’s always improving, just like your smartphone.

The standard setup includes a 10.3-inch infotainment display with in-dash navigation, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. But if you want to go big, you can upgrade to a 12.3-inch display. The connected optional 16-speaker Harman Kardon audio system will blow you away. Bluetooth phone connectivity, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and a USB port come standard.

With advanced BMW Driver Assistance safety technologies, the 2024 X3 has your back. It comes standard with Forward Collision Warning that can automatically apply the brakes if you’re about to hit something directly ahead.

Lane Departure Warning is another standard feature that helps prevent accidental drifts out of your lane if you become distracted on the highway.

 

  

2024 BMW X3 Trim Levels

Some car makers go crazy with this, giving you a dozen different options that are hard to tell apart. But not BMW. They kept things simple with the 2024 X3. We have just two main trim levels to choose from. Each one has its own perks, so you’ll want to think about what matters most to you.

The sDrive30i and xDrive30i represent the most affordable entry points into 2024 X3 ownership. They come equipped with the same TwinPower Turbo 4-cylinder engine, producing 248 horsepower. Visually, both trims ride on beautiful 19-inch V-spoke bi-color wheels. The exterior also gets body-colored heated power side mirrors with auto-dimming, power folding, and integrated turn signals. Perimeter/approach lights are also standard.

Inside, you’re treated to a 10.25-inch digital instrument display behind the steering wheel, with a 10.7-inch central touchscreen. A 12-speaker audio system immerses passengers in clear, dynamic sound. Comfort amenities include synthetic leather upholstery and a leather-wrapped Sport steering wheel. Dual-zone automatic climate control enables personalized heating and cooling zones.

Next, a garage door transmitter integrates with your compatible garage door opener so you can remotely open the door from inside the X3. Finally, LED Brake Lights provide faster illumination than traditional bulbs and are highly durable.

x3 m40i

For those seeking maximum performance from the 2024 X3 lineup, there’s the M40i model. The AWD-only M40i adds an adaptive M suspension system for improved handling and ride quality at all speeds. An available electronically controlled M Sport limited-slip differential also enhances traction and control through tight corners.

On the outside, the M40i features a slightly lowered chassis that improves aerodynamics. Upgraded brakes boast eye-catching blue or red brake calipers. You can now get inside the vehicle with the Smart Keyless Entry feature and adjust your seating position with driver lumbar support.

Inside the tech-laden cabin, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster is standard. So is a larger 12.3-inch central touchscreen with navigation. Owners can open the available panoramic sunroof to enjoy blue skies or stars above. Unique M badging and interior styling elements remind you this X3 means business.

2024 bmw x3 m

Representing the Motorsport pedigree of BMW, the X3 M is the highest performance variant made for track-inspired driving. This speed machine handles like a sports car and accelerates like one too.

Its heart is a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine. Opting for the available Competition package bumps those figures up to 503 horsepower and 479 lb-ft for neck-snapping acceleration. In Drift Mode, you can configure the X3 M to send all power to the rear wheels only and hang the tail out around corners. Quad polished exhaust tips are integrated neatly into the rear bumper.

The X3 M proudly wears “M” badging inside and out. Racing-style M Sport seats keep you firmly planted through hard cornering and are comfortable with available Merino leather upholstery.
