BMW X3 Performance SpecsX3 vs Q3: Performance Specs

These models might be small in terms of their names, but they’re big on performance. The entry-level BMW X3 comes with a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, pumping out 248 horsepower on every drive. A twin-scroll turbocharger combines with variable valve control and high-precision direct injection to deliver a driving experience that continues to impress daily. Whether you’re heading to work or driving the kids to soccer practice, do it all in the X3.

The Audi Q3 is no slouch, but it can’t quite match the power that the X3 puts out. Under the hood, you’ll find a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, similar to the X3. That being said, it only makes 228 horsepower.

All-wheel drive capability is offered in both models. Enjoy better traction when you’re out on area roads with all-wheel drive functionality.

 

BMW X3 vs Audi Q3: Cabin Space

 

BMW X3 InteriorBMW X3 CargoWith the X3 carrying a standard power tailgate, you have streamlined access to the trunk area. With up to 62.7 cubic feet of cargo space to work with, take advantage any way you want. Throw in some luggage. Bring the groceries home. Buy a new TV and safely transport it home. The possibilities are endless. The 40/20/40 split folding rear seats can be configured in various ways, too.

While the Audi Q3 cargo area is spacious, if you fold the rear seats down, you’ll only have up to 48 cubic feet of space to work with. That can leave you having to make decisions about what you’re going to leave behind, not what you want to bring.

As for passenger space, the BMW X3 bests the Audi Q3 in front headroom, front legroom, and rear legroom. There’s no comparison when it comes to space—the X3 shines much brighter than the Q3.

Most drivers can spend hours a week in their car. Even when you’re not at home, you want to feel like you have a home away from home in your car. Both luxury SUVs come standard with 3-zone automatic climate control, which keeps the temperature comfortable up front for the driver and passenger, and for those seated in the back.

You’ll find a 10-way power driver’s seat standard in the BMW X3, while the Audi Q3 only offers an 8-way power seat, giving the BMW the edge when it comes to driver comfort.
