Ever since the BMW X3 came out in 2004, BMW has resisted doing a full performance M version. Now, BMW is no stranger to high performance SUV's with the X5 and X6 M. For 2020, the M line-up has been expanded to include the #X3M and #X4M. Based on the latest generation introduced in 2018, the new BMW X3 M and BMW X4 M showcase an entirely new inline 6-cylinder for BMW called the S58. Its a twin-turbo single scroll straight 6, available in two tunes... 473 HP and 503 HP in the #X3MCompetition and #X4MCompetition. #BMW says these two SUV's have all the necessary hardware to be a true M performance model and this new #S58 engine should preview the next generation #BMWM3 as well. Is this now considered to be the ultimate driving SUV? - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Hey guys! This video ended up longer than we expected because we combined the X3 M and X4 M into one video. The driving scenes starts at 20:30 where we begin on the street and then at 29:59 we go onto the track in the X4 M! We really hope you guys like the intro, we took a lot of the feedback from the last few videos and made a few tweaks and the shots of the car and exhaust clips really made the whole thing come together. We came away far more impressed then we thought we would be and we feel a lot of enthusiast looking to replace their M3 or C63 would find a lot to like with this car or really anything in this relatively new small performance SUV segment. Thanks for watching as always everyone! :)
Redline Reviews I prefer the old intro video
sick
wondering how it compares to Macan w/ its max sport pkgs
Why are we blurring-out the speedometer now?
Redline Reviews Please reduce the music volume
This is the first BMW that I've wanted in a long time...crazy that it just happens to be an X3. That engine sounds absolutely fantastic. They nailed it in that regard.
Never been this early!
500hp! Definitely an M power car
If horsepower in an indication of an M car (it's not, and never has been, its handling and feel WITH HP.), then we should slap M badges on trains and cargo ships. SMH. I want a REAL M back like the 80's-early 2000's.
@@omnicode yeah lol my 650 makes more power than a M3/M4, its not a real M though!
Though with AWD, it gives RWD Ms a run for their money :P
C B they should put V12 on them man 💵👀
Greg Blank no you don’t the original m3 had a NA 4 cylinder that retailed for over $50k no one would ever buy that
Greg Blank you sound dumb af lol
I really like how you did the intro, I’m happy how much this channel has grown! Doing what you love!
3 uploads in 2 days. Wow Sofyan and your team, ur killing it
I love that red leather interior!
@@soulvacaine oh shoot okay sorry I didn't know
Oh my God THANK YOU SO MUCH for sparing us the techno music montage at the beginning. So refreshing to get right to the video
car and driver has also tested the 0-60mph for the X3 M competition, they got 3.3 seconds. The regular X3 M does it in 3.7 seconds. It is a beast!
X3MC is 3.3 with 1 ft. rollout . The actual 0-60 is 3.5 sec. X3M non competition, did 0-60 with 1ft rollout 3.5 and 0-60 no rollout 3.7. X3Mcomp is ~ 0.2 sec faster 1/4 mile too.
X3 m looks beautiful. Love the red interior.
I'm actually watching the video in 1.75x speed. Anyways great video. Thankyou sofyan and team for working hard and delivering!
Please don't complain about a harsh ride. Just get the non 'M' model. There's a lot of us that love road feel! Stop thinking cars have to drive smooth! Just get the non performance version. That's like getting a ZL1 - 1le and complaining about the ride. Just got an SS or something else and call it a day.
But you don't have an M car or a ZL1 clown 🤡🤡
@@350z33hr I have a 1le and it's the same suspension as a base ZL1.
And I'm pretty sure if we were face to face you wouldn't be calling me a clown.
I'm certain that if you did you would get your feelings hurt physically.
@@350z33hr and to add to that, I see you are a 350z owner. I had that slow car as well as a 300zx Twin Turbo and a Z34. So let's start talking about cars you have owned. And if I wanted a piece of shit BMW M car, I could have one.
I can tell you were I live if you want to come from behind that keyboard and have the conversation in person. People think they can say whatever they want on the internet.
@@backnu ignore him. You spitting facts...if you want a softer ride get the nonM. I got a X3 diesel so it is as slow as you can get because I cannot drive a fast car slow.
Facts❤️
This review was fantastic. Very articulate and concise. Making me rethink the Macan GTS now. Thanks man. Keep up the great work.
Yup. I wanted the Porsche GTS but now I want this.
Stiff ride in comfort mode is due to the comp package. Same for all the M cars I’ve drove vs to non M version. As far as the 8 speed auto acting like double clutch.... I can’t tell the difference, surprisingly. This vehicle is a true M.
Been waiting for this forever!!!
Great review, and it’s a blast to see you having so much fun! On the cars, I’m not an SUV guy, but I really dig the looks of the X3, but not the X4 so much. BMW’s “GT” profile always looks a little weird to me for some reason, which is odd since I normally like hatchbacks.
Im going to try for this for sure, i love it!!
Very Very nicely in-depth Video. Me as a German are used to quality stuff, this is a good piece you created my friend, Just got you a sub!
Best video review out. Thank you.
Awesome review and very good explanations, Thanks 👍
I don't know how I didn't see this when you released it but that intro was baller!
Good stuff, RR. Appreciate the info!
Red line reviews has to be one of the best car channels on CZcams. Best of luck to you in 2019.
Yup I hate The Straight Pipes. Doug Demuro is 2nd place for me
@@SonyEnthusiast never watched the straight pipes. The way douge does his videos can be cringe some times.
@@Reaperguy67 that makes him unique though
@@SonyEnthusiast you are right about that
Straight Pipes and Alex on Autos much better reviews. Straight Pipes more entertainment, Alex on Autos much better overall reviews and info.
Okay. I'll confess....I nearly always just skip to the part where you start to roll and see whether you laugh or not. That's it. But I always thank you for your hard work and professionalism :)
I love this design. Great review as well. And that door slam was perfectly executed.
Got to test drive this thing at a BMW M TOWN event, and it's a riot! A little bit of a turbo lag but all great after that. It sounds amazing even just sitting in a parking lot
Great review!
Great review and I’m digging this model! I agree, this vehicle is specced out perfectly! In the video you mention the leather is red, however on the bmw website this is the only option for leather that comes close “Sakhir Orange/Black Extended Merino Leather”. Is the leather in the vehicle you reviewed a custom red, or is it the Sakhir Orange? Thanks!
Regular X3 does offer cooled seats, can't wait for these to come to the dealership I'm at 🔥 I've already seen the X4M swing by
Great review as usual. I believe some of the things you mentioned are still subjective like you commented on one occassion that the steering needs to be more stiffer whereas, the contrarian have been saying that BMW needs to loosen the steering in their stiffer most setting. Secondly, if you need more exahust sound in the cabin then it may come at the expense of more cabin noise, which is generally more than a Mercedes so I wouldn't want to vouch for that as well. Apart from that an awesome review. I have been a long time viewer of your videos and you have grown tremendously as well. Waiting for the m3/m4 reviews and then the x5m/x6m reviews.
Another good review dude.
I just bought a 2019 X3 with m line sport, same alpine white with red interior. How I wish I could afford this M competition
Woooow excellent video 🙏🙏
The full pano roof alone makes me prefer the X3 over the X4.
This video should have millions of views!
Very nice vehicle with solid tech the only problem is reliability after 2yrs.I own a 5 series am always repairing something.
What’s your thoughts on this or GLC facelift or possibly the f pace svr?
Loving this X3 M. My next car replacing my BMW F10.
I’ve watched three other videos on the X3M and all three were saying that the ride quality was horrible that it makes this car not a daily driver. I’m glad you had more of a neutral feeling about it.
From my experience, both the M40i and the X3M have not good ride quality, exceptionally when driving long distances on the roads in California. Now that I will say that if you can go with anything other than the 21-inch wheels, do it. I eventually moved down to 19, making a world of difference. Plus, it was a lot easier to find tires than the few options for the 21.
Very well done review. Smooth transitioning from one section/topic to another. Almost like every word was scripted, only it wasn't.
I like the x3 better too. Good review! Makes me want one even more now
What’s the switch by the floor in the backseat as soon as you open the door ? Could that be a way to recline the seat.
At $82k to $85k is TRUE bargain compared against the German competition when you also take into consideration that ALL your service maintenance is included in the price too!
The interior is so beautiful omg 😍😍
BRYAN HARRIS Agee with you✅ Interior is fantastic 💯
prettiest car in the category hands down.
Polishing the intros. I like it, good job Sofyan
Great Review Of 2020 BMW X3 M. 😀
Great review. Have you considered talking about reliability history of brands/models as well as resale values in 1 or 2 years? With all this tech on board you have to wonder how it will stand the test of time. Also when are manufacturers going offer software updates to the head units (or maybe they do already and I missed the memo).
That's the thing scaring me about these new cars. How long are they going to make all these screens? It's fine if you lease, but what if you're a long term owner.
Michael Chew this isn’t a Camry or Accord
BMW X3 M Competition, for the win. 👏👏
The X3 M looks better than the X4 I’m starting to like your introduction and you did a great job working hard for us Thanks
I have an X3 M40i which I bought before the X3M came out and test drove the X3M later at the dealer on M-town day.
Top-line, I did not feel substantial difference even though on paper, the X3M has a more powerful motor. So,
if you have an M40i no need to upgrade unless the time has come to change your M40i.
If you do not have an X3 and want to buy one, if you want to save money get the M40i, else
If money is not an issue, get the X3M, it does look nicer.
For me, I am keeping my X3 M40i for a while. May upgrade to X3M when the time comes to swap the X3 M40i due to its age.
Also, I did the same experiment at the dealer that same day where I test drove the 2019 M240i and the M2. In that case, it was night and day. Get the M2 hands down.
You uploaded just in time for my hour lunch! :)
Anthony A what did you have for lunch ?
Benjamin Mathew It is dinner time but it was my lunch break lol. I’m on the east coast
MelvinLopez It was actually dinner lol, but it was chicken and mashed potatoes haha.
i love the shape of it, which white exterior and red interior. My dream car!!!
I have the X3 M40i and to get the Launch control to work you disengage the traction control,also Put in Sport Plus. You also see the checkered flag in the middle of the screen after putting your foot on the brake pedal and throttle flat to the floor.. Are you sure you had this come up as launch control is harsher than that. I also had the option of the back rests being adjustable which i went with and cooled seats were optional so cant see the M not having this as well.
0:17 Dude, Why did you blur the screen !? 🤔Anybody can tell that You was doing 80mph !! 😂
Junito Punto Comm yea but you cannot prove it in a legal battle
Bryce Yes you can !! In here 0:09 He shows the tachometer and you can see that the 4th number is 80mph...with that info, you just show that the red dial hit that number at 0:23...Guilty !! Lol
Junito Punto Comm yea that may be true but you cannot prove he was doing 80 because you cannot see the number yes it’s obvious and we all know it but you can use that in a legal battle
Bryce you watch too much tv 😂
@@brynnleahnayvieghlaykynnn6175 you can calculate his speed from the information he hasn't blurred. knowing the rpm together with the gear ratio of third gear , the tire diameter of the 21 inch wheels paired with the final drive ratio. would give you a speed of 81 MPH at 6250 rpm in 3rd. would probably hold up in court, if an expert witness testified. so doing 81 in a 55 zone, most likely results in a suspended license, or at least hefty fines + points.
This would be the SUV I would want! Color and everything!
Kind of funny, but the X3 M40i exhaust sounds better (better sounding crackles and pops) than the competition model. Maybe in person, it sounds better. The rear seats do indeed have a recline feature.
Nice review! I’m looking to Lease the x3 M. I’m super impressed on the competition pkg. with this color combo. White/silver/ blue with red seats for sure. I love speed an space so this will work just fine.
how much per month do you think it will lease for?
@@blackfish4674 With $10k down about $1k a month for the X3M Comp
Rip wallet
That straight six sounds great!
Interior leather looking so good
X3M looks great, the 4 I agree, Fugly...Noise on the interior is perfect especially if in comfort mode, and comfort setting should be smoother. The white model with red leather is how I'd want mine.. Perfection...and I am an Audi guy.
Hard to fail with a M Series BMW. Both are awesome vehicles.
40 minutes? I hope you wiped up all your drool Sofyan. 🤤
Great looking SUV. Those 21" would look great on the 7 series
Wow wow what a beautiful suv one of the best really perfect
I vastly prefer the look of the X3. If I'm getting an SUV then I want it to look like an SUV, not some jacked up coupe in denial. The Coupe UVs to me just look awful.
I totally agree they look worse and are less practical.
Nailed it! X3 looks infinitely better than the X4!!
For me I get it in blue exterior with the red seats and then have light blue lights to match their M colors on the wheel.
Pretty sure the low-speed is standard with the adaptive cruise control ; the 5 series has that built into the adaptive cruise, you turn it on and it automatically chooses the furthest following distance and you can customize that and the speed.
25:45 The Alfa Quad is the softest riding of the three, after you adjust the suspension
And according to all the so called "experts", the Alfa has the best handling of any SUV or crossover in the whole car world
I appreciate your work, dedication, and effort in every video. I am considering this X3competition or the Stelvio QV, can you please help me in my decision?
Huge fan of your channel for a long time. Regards from Mexico City!
Get the Alfa. Not as nice of an interior as the BMW but just as fast and better handling and cheaper
i love those back roads in Bavaria where 95 is the speed limit, lol
apocalypse13 that’s the speed limit 90kmh
The X4 is the X3 when the lights come on in the club at close
I really really love X3 M the most
Awesome body style!
You can recline the rear seat. You had to press the button by your feet on the side of the rear seat next to the door.
Actually, the rear seats do recline a bit if you pull the trigger on the lower side of them.
The gesture controls just seem gimmicky to me. I'm sure you can disable it but it's still a nice infotainment. Great review as always
looks way better than my x3, its time to turn in the lease
Sounds so much better wherever you are!! Not fair we are given the quiet OPF model here in the uk 😤
This is by far the best X3M Competition review ever. I've seen hundreds of reviews, own the X3M40i, have driven both the X4 and X6 Competition, will be purchasing the X3M Competition, and I can attest that this review is on point and unbiased. Excellent job!
BMW always was the one who put a lot of class and what they do. They don't put a lot of buttons. And other assorted stuff in your car or truck just to make it look nice. They make it look real good and simple. That's the way it works. And I like that. Rather than all those buttons and switches in a Mercedes Benz. Or These other cars that's out there right now.
Love the Bordello interior.
Cant wait for the M3 and M4. Cant believe they have 500 horsepower, i remember less than 10 years ago the M5 had 500 horsepower.
to justify for the power increase
M5 in 2003 is 69000 dollars now is close to 110000
M3 in 2005 is 50000 dollars now is 70000 plus
SEAN QU inflation, thank you Fed and ECB
Gorgeous, one of the best looking in the segment
looks like every other bmw.......in the last like 10 years. lol
@@blessed4164 yea this is true, especially the interior. Basic to be this much
Mu days not complete without a Redline Review. Soyfan doesn't disappoint.!!
I really like this X3 but I’d still get a GLC63S just because of the V8 and overall design
Plus the Mercedes is faster!!
No vehicle can dethrone the GLC63s 4matic plus in this segment GLC63s 4matic plus is still king 🤴
Hands down, baddest suv on the market today. X3 10 times better looking than the x4. The new idrive is fantastic, my only complaint is the smg delete, dual clutch much more fun.
Why did he blur the speed indicator? This car and the Macan Turbo are my dream cars
What’s with the blurred speedo?
Unfortunately, in this video, we did not see launch control activated. There is a procedure that is very easy to perform and activate LC.
You can also adjust the steering to make it firmer.
Can’t wait for you to drive the F pace SVR
Maybe I'm wrong (but I don't think so) but it's Alpine White like "pine" tree with a long i. Or "Alpine" skiing. I know we say 'Al-peen-a' for the Alpina BMWs, but I don't think that's the case for the color. Love your videos, btw. Doing a really nice job.
BMW charges $300 for 20 years of apple car play and $80 for 1 year. You can do this in the system. I have a 2017 X5 and have not added this functionality. Love the easy this X3 looks, wish you could get an orange or maybe even a blue leather instead of the red, that’s my taste but overall, nicely done BMW!
Since the x3 came in the market along with the new 3 series, i cannot u derstand why it doesn t have the new digital instrument cluster..... However its a masterpiece
Wish they would do a flat-bottom steering wheel on those like Audi does on their SQ5, also needs the live cockpit with the idrive 7, imo... otherwise great looking car!
It’s crazy to think this car makes more power than the Nissan r35 GT-R when it first came out
it looks really good
oh it is a ///M car
My dream car
You forgot to say that closing the hood sounds "nice and solid".
Finally a channel that gets right to the meat and potatoes. Most Chanel’s have a big motion picture intro and just blab about who they are and what they do and the back ground of the car. I want to see the car, hear the car, and get in introduction before that shit and then in the end They can have diarrhea of the mouth about who and what they are. Bravo job well done.
