5 Reasons Why You Should Buy A 2022 BMW X3 - Quick Buyer's Guide 

2022 was a big jump for the X3, now you get remote start and iDrive recorder for that peace of mind. I also think the tail lights looks way nicer now.

Great review and information! Thanks 👍

Absolutely in love with my blacked out 2022 x3 Msport. We got the upgraded leather from this model and it’s LUXURIOUS! It’s the epitome of sporty and luxury, without paying Porsche macan prices

Living in the Desert I had zero need for four wheel drive.taking 150 lbs off the front Axel and rear wheel drive sold me on my 22 Sdrive.

Thank you so much during this review for NOT showing the rear seat cup holders.

Drove my brand new X3 xdrive30i to Florida last month...what a fabulous ride made the 1300 mile trip a breeze

I love my just got it last Saturday 🥰🥰

Considering if I should get this or the RDX A spec. Wife and I were considering the Macan or the Velar but given that work is predominantly from home these days, I am sticking to something more afforfable if it's going to sit in the garage or on the driveway more often during the lease period.

Wish they still offered acoustic side glass on the X3.

I picked up my x3 xdrive in Brooklyn gray a week ago, I got the m sport package, coming from a m240i convertible, I find the power quite fine for everyday driving

Absolutely Beautiful!!!!!

It is not a 10.3 inch touchscreen anymore. It has been upgraded with this version to a 12.3 inch touchscreen for infotainment.

Got one love it 👍

Going to get mines tomorrow😍😍😍😍

What color is the BMW in the video? Brooklyn Grey? I cant tell

I Love my 2022 BMW ! I only wish I could drive it more, so beautiful makes me feel good when I am in it.💖💖💖👍

You know this is an American review when they call an X3 a "Compact" car 😂

I watched this a year ago halfway and just now realised that I bought the exact car two months ago but in black and the M-Sport 😂

Lol. We were just talking about my friend’s beautiful 2020 bmw. Engine oil leak, they wanted $15,000 to repair. I was thinking about bmw coz it looks good. But not with oil leak at 30,000 miles and $15k repair bill. Nope!

Just picked up mine yesterday I’m in love

Petrol or diesel which one is better

I would not recommend the X3. The car has been in the shop 4 times in the first 4000 miles due to electronics. The sound system crashes (radio, bluetooth, blinker sounds) monthly around the time the Sirius legal notice screen comes up. Secondly, the driving assistant stops working. The other observation is too many tie ins to the infotainment system, cluster, and car inputs. A driver's seat position or steering heat is a cluster message. The infotainment is on the cluster and the head unit. This car will not age well. For instance, if you get slush on the forward sensors, the driving assistant disables AND Apple car play does not work. We do not plan on keeping it past the warranty. One major design flaw is sound damping. There is so much road noise, the first day I drove on wet roads, I was pulling the window switches because I thought one was open. Small annoyances such as needing to glue a piece of felt on the B pillar because the passenger seatbelt buckle rattles on the trim and the backup camera does not retract so we are wiping it twice a week in winter. Also, BMW has a Passive AWD system so the rear wheels need to break free before the front grab. It is the worst of the AWD cars we have had (Quattros, 4 Matics, X Drives). You have to slow down or it will understeer in snow or hit the gas and oversteer until the front pulls. We are at 5000 miles and just received a Drivetrain Malfunction code and recommendation that we go to the dealer (will be our 5th time). I have a 2007 Kia Sedona with 150k miles and it has dropped off our new Mercedes for a failed steering column, our 1 year old Audi for a new transmission, and this car 4 times for electronics.

there is no adaptive cruise and yet you want to buy this?

don't like that they removed the 360 and front camera. so only back camera for now.. but other than that, lovely

I have a 2016 28d. Wish I could trade in for a newer version soon

My 2020 BMW X3 has engine mounts that went bad after just after the 50k warranty went out. It also has an oil leak. Lemon? Wonder if BMW has looked at those issues?

I think many others have noticed the same thing as me that the 2022 X3 isn’t currently offering the Driver Assistance Pro package and the Harman&Kardon sound system. I’m not sure whether it is due to the chip shortage.

I never really liked the x3, but of course this body is just space

The X3 is not valued by BMW dealers in North America. I was offered $2,000 for my 2013 X3 with 100,000 miles! Give me a break, why would I think of getting another BMW product if this is the respect it gets from a dealer?!

I drove X3 since 2019 and just change it to 2022 Mini Cooper Countryman and I love Mini Countryman much better!!

What a great grey color!, What is this color?

I can't decide between the X3 M40i or the XC60 plug-in hybrid.

Can u do the genesis gv70 or gv80?

Guys, is there too much difference between 2022 and 2023 model? Should I go with 2023 or 2022?

Which one has the more comfortable and quiet ride? The X3 or the GLC?

BMW will no longer offer wireless charging on X series. It is a shame. I was thinking to buy this car but the lacking of this option stops me.

How do you disable start stop?

Does it have run flat tires?

Man, nervous about buying the 2022 X3 X30i with M SPORT package. The out the door is 57k. We are trading in a 2018 Audi Q7 with 53k miles. Trade offered on the Audi is 35k. The existing bank is willing to take the deal with 22k down. Current lean is 39k owed on the Audi. Looking for the go ahead!

does 2022 x3 has heads up display?

I bought a new X3 in July 2022. I am extremely dissapoinnted because the car does not have ACC. My other cars all have it, very basic as they too are luxury models.

Wouldn’t you compare this vehicle to the Porsche Macan entry model? What’s the benefit of the X3 then?

style ;)

Better go with x1 and safe 20k €/$.

Thank you but after I drove the X3, I test drove Volvo v90 and its a much better crossover by every means. From comfortable seats, luxury features and the great looks front and back.

I hope they change the dashboard design for the 2026 BMW X3 it’s getting kind of old. They could do something like Mercedes cabin with 2 connected screens

States “While on winding back roads” while he is on a 10 mile road with with no turns!

Tell us about the problems with the 2.0 crap engine

What's that puddle under the car at 0:32?

Holy import duties!!! here a m30i costs 100,000 USD plus.

To be honest, I do not need any reasons!

I love my bmw but I am tire of expending my savings on fixing it, I wish bmw could focus on making the engine more reliable and easier to to fix simple things like water pump, radiator, gaskets, shame on you bmw .

Umm excuse me but these truly are not that much. I like it. Picasso

Reasons not to buy: 1. They made it a mild hybrid out of the M40i and tuned the engine down. Why for turbo lag? The B58 is solid why drop the HP and Torque from the engine? 2. Fog lights are gone! If you have any wildlife in your area or need to see better with lower aimed beams you’re f$&&’ed. 3. The design language is going in the wrong direction. This LCI is nice, but one of the last X3’s before they f it up and make it look like it made love with a Lexus and somehow spit out an Alfa Romeo with a BMW Roundel. 4. They continue to lose their feel. The F chassis was a huge loss for the driver’s car. The G chassis CLAR architecture is awesome for a solid quiet ride that doesn’t make you feel like it’s going to fall apart when you hit a bump. 5. They keep removing amenities and stall on adding options commonly found in non-luxury vehicles. Love the Headlamp Washers they killed off and remote start is not that big of a deal if most mid level trim packages in American cars have them. I have had four BMWs and even took the opportunity to give some of these cars some hell at their Spartanburg, SC M Performance Driving School. - I’m not a brand detractor, but it’s sad to know this is the last one I’ll own if I want to give up fog lights and wonder about the mild hybrid.

no air suspension, no merino leather, no leather on the dashboard, no massage, not a comfortable ride - but I agree it's cheaper than GLC or Macan, but calling it the best crossover... I don't think so.

Why they removed the fog lights for 2022 is beyond me... so stupid.

Now, please tell us5 Reasons Why We Should lease A 2022 BMW X3.

Nice but too expensive, can you review the new Kia Sportage & Sorrento as well as the Chevy blazer? I think these offer more over-all value in this inflationary economy.

3:35 How could you do that BMW? I'm sad.

it is same size as an old X5

‘Arctic circle customs’ is on here. He must have got fired from BMW. He is trolling all the complimentary comments. Luv ya work artic fartic 🤣

Tell us when one of those reasons are that they started to use reliable components under the hood. Endless money pits 🚗

Bmw suvs > Mercedes suvs

Interior is so far behind the competition, just better cheaper options. Tablet like display, that's just old tech in 2022.

You lost me at the "here's 5 reasons..." be original.

5년안에 꼭산다.. 기다려라

Doesn't' even compare to the Volvo XC60. It competes with the smaller Volvo XC40.

Test drove X3 30i and Tesla Model Y Long Range back to back today. Got very disappointed in "ultimate driving machine". BMW is not only significantly slower, but also engine response is very sluggish. Floor it and count 2 seconds before turbines spool up and it gets going. Interior is very busy and plastic is hard (cheap) everywhere. Only advantage over Tesla was suspension - I felt like BMW better eats potholes and isolates noise from wheel arcs. Otherwise, so yesterday "2022" refreshed model

Interior same as 2021

Garbage - still lots of options you can't get - For example passenger seat lumber support - so they give you $100 back - yes $100 back - unprofessional - I couldn't believe how my x3 was delivered.

A Honda CRV can be much better than this in every aspect. We got the Porsche Macan instead 6 years ago which is a much better. car.

interior is the worst in BMW, from a 5 BMW OWNER in past 4 years. Now I am totally over it.

Money pits no thanks

No thanks. BMW's interior design is outdated and the materials are questionable in the X3. Also the tail lights look like something that belong on a Subaru.

Junk , everyone that I know that bought a x3 are sorry for buying one . So many electrical and transmission problems

I never believed in guying a vehicle from the Big 3. I have always told people to buy something Japanese, or German made, I was a Nissan fan for decades and in 2019, I purchased a new, fully loaded, 2019 Infinity QX50. I wanted something that offered better building materials, fit and finish. At almost 2.5 months into ownership, I started having Electrical and Computer problems with the SUV, that the Dealership can't fix. The DCU has been replaced 4 times and the problems still exist. Infinity is aware of the problems in the 2019 QX50 and they said that they don't know how to fix it. The Safety features malfunction, Audio System and Climate Control will not work at times, trunk won't close at times, Transmission does not shift properly and hangs on to gears for too long at very high RPM's when in STANDARD MODE, false collisions causing the vehicle to slam on the brakes, ABS not working properly. this vehicle is clean all the time, so the Sensors are not contaminated with Dirt, Bugs, Snow, ect. I will be going with the 2022 BMW X3, but in the M40i variant, as soon as my Lawsuit against Nissan / Infinity is done. The X3 checks all the boxes for me.

ix3 much better

Only one reason not to buy. It’s a “bmw”

I have one it is piece of shit I regret I bought it please do not buy it

2001 Honda Civic is better

Buddy, just a tip of advice, you might want to ditch your accent.
