X Factor: BMW X3 xDrive30 M Sport Pro
The BMW X3 xDrive30 M Sport Pro may have one of the longest names seen on any car sold in the country, but it also happens to be an important car in BMW India’s lineup right now. Sitting at the heart of the mid-size luxury SUV segment, the X3 has become one of BMW’s best sales performers. If you look at BMW India’s 2025 numbers, it’s clear the brand has closed the gap to its German rivals and products such as the X3 have played a vital role in that rise. The first thing you notice about the new X3 is that it no longer plays it safe. ‘Bold’ is the word that best describes this design. Right up front, the illuminated kidney grille dominates the face and while it may still divide opinion, there’s no denying the drama it adds especially at night. Unlock the car in a dimly lit parking lot, and the soft glow from the grille instantly announces its presence. It is theatrical and unmistakably BMW. Beyond the grille, there’s a lot to admire. The LED headlamps are sharp and modern, the bumper sculpting is aggressive without being messy, and the bonnet features strong creases that give the X3 a muscular, purposeful look. Move to the side, and you’ll still recognise the familiar X3 silhouette, but the surfacing is tighter and more defined. At the rear, sharp lines across the tailgate and bumper give the SUV a planted, athletic stance. This is an X3 that looks like it means business.

Elon Musk’s obsession with the letter ‘X’ is well-documented, but BMW’s obsession is far more practical. When I reviewed the outgoing X3 last year, I felt it was clearly the driver’s choice in the luxury segment, though it fell short on cabin materials.

BMW X3 to get more powerful petrol engine in India in 2026
BMW India is working to bring a more powerful version of the X3 petrol to India. Currently, the X3 is available in xDrive20 form with a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine that makes 190hp, a figure significantly lower than what rival petrol SUVs offer. For reference, the Mercedes-Benz GLC 300’s 2.0-litre petrol engine makes 258hp, while the 2.0-litre petrol units on the Audi Q5 and Volvo XC60 are good for 250hp. The X3 petrol’s humdrum performance is something we had highlighted when we compared it with the Mercedes GLC 300.
