2020 BMW X3 Trims Comparison
2020 X3 trim level differences
The 2020 BMW X3 is a five-passenger crossover sold in four trim levels: sDrive30i, xDrive30i, xDrive30e and M40i. The rear-wheel-drive sDrive30i and the all-wheel-drive xDrive30i are powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (248 horsepower, 258 lb-ft of torque). The all-wheel-drive xDrive30e uses this engine but pairs it to a plug-in hybrid system (288 hp, 310 lb-ft). The M40i is powered by a 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine (382 hp, 365 lb-ft of torque) and comes standard with all-wheel drive. All X3s use an eight-speed automatic transmission.
Which 2020 X3 trim does Edmunds recommend?
It's tempting to load up the BMW X3 with all the available features, go for the high-performance M40i engine and bury the throttle on your way out of the dealership parking lot. For most shoppers, though, we'd recommend going with one of the base models: the sDrive30i (with rear-wheel drive) or the xDrive30i (with all-wheel drive). The base four-cylinder engine provides respectable acceleration and a more reasonable price point. Also, you can option up the base X3 as much or as little as you want, adding abundant performance, luxury and safety features.
