General nameplate overview

Unscoped catalog background, not specifications for a particular year or trim. Review status is unknown except for the assertions cited below.

The BMW X3 M is the full M-division version of the X3, launched for the 2020 model year alongside its X4 M sibling. It uses the S58 twin-turbo 3.0-liter straight-six also found in the M3 and M4, driving all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic and an Active M Differential.

Two states of tune were offered: 473 hp as standard and 503 hp as the Competition. Both reach 60 mph in around four seconds, which made the X3 M quicker than most sports cars of its era despite weighing over 4,600 lb. EPA economy is 16 to 17 mpg combined, the price of that performance.
