Caralogy Analysis

Tailored to this vehicle?

Caralogy Verdict
Suitable for

Demanding drivers: 1st of 12 in 0–100 km/h (4.1 s), 2nd of 12 in Power-to-weight (256 hp/t). 1st of 12 in 0–100 km/h (4.1 s), 2nd of 12 in Power-to-weight (256 hp/t).

Less suitable for

Frequent urban trips with stop-and-go. At 11,0 L/100 km on the combined cycle, consumption rises in the city without electric assistance. An HEV or PHEV would be more economical for this use profile.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Top speed, the Jaguar F-PACE SVR (1st with 285 km/h) takes the lead. If the priority is Power-to-weight, the Jaguar F-PACE SVR (1st with 272 hp/t) takes the lead.

Acceleration: 4.1 s 0-100 (1st of 12 in 0–100 km/h)

In pure acceleration, the X3 M Competition ranks 1st of 12 in 0–100 km/h, 0.0 s off the reference Bmw X3 M Competition (4.1 s).

Top speed: 250 km/h (6th of 12 in Top speed)

Top speed of 250 km/h. The segment reference reaches 285 km/h.

Frequently asked questions

BMW X3 M Competition: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Among the 12 D-SUV 2019–2023, the X3 M Competition ranks 1st of 12 in 0–100 km/h (4.1 s, behind the Bmw X3 M Competition), 6th of 12 in Top speed (250 km/h, behind the Jaguar F-PACE SVR), 2nd of 12 in Power-to-weight (256 hp/t, behind the Jaguar F-PACE SVR).

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
