There are few vehicles on the roads of Meridian, Philadelphia, and Laurel, Mississippi, more versatile than the BMW X3. This luxury vehicle combines power and design to create an all-around performance that leaves you feeling satisfied behind the wheel. Part of this performance is the vehicle’s fuel economy, earning impressive figures for its class and size.
To tell you about it, the team at BMW of Meridian has created this guide to the 2022 BMW X3 MPG, giving you a good idea of what kind of efficiency you’ll see on the roads. Will it live up to your high standards and fuel economy needs? Let’s dive in and find out.
When you need the perfect mixture of power, strength, and efficiency, the 2022 X3 has you covered. This luxury model is classified as a small SUV, though despite this distinction, you’ll find a fuel economy that looks like it belongs to a much smaller, less powerful vehicle.
When standardly outfitted with the 2.0L BMW TwinPower Turbo inline 4-cylinder engine and 8-speed Sport Automatic transmission, you’ll see an impressive EPA-estimated 23 city and 29 highway MPG.1 This proves that this luxury Sports Activity Vehicle® (SAV®) will work hard to prevent frequent stops at the gas pump.
However, this is only one of several configurations available for the BMW X3. For example, if you choose the available xDrive all-wheel drive system with the base engine, you’ll see an EPA-estimated 21 city and 28 highway MPG.1
The other rating for the BMW X3 miles per gallon is:
Whether you’re headed on a family vacation or braving the daily commute to work, you can be sure you’ll earn excellent efficiency riding in the 2022 BMW X3 no matter which configuration you choose.
A large contributor to the BMW X3’s impressive fuel efficiency is the engine configuration. Whether you stick with the standard engine or upgrade to the available powertrain for more oomph under the hood, you’ll not only have great MPG, but you’ll also have reliability, power, and liveliness on your side as well.
The BMW X3 luxury SAV® comes standardly outfitted with the 2.0L BMW TwinPower Turbo inline 4-cylinder engine on the sDrive30i and xDrive30i models. This pumps out an impressive 248 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, allowing you to reach 60 MPH in just six seconds.
This engine is paired with an 8-speed Sport Automatic transmission that offers smooth guess-free shifting as well as available xDrive Intelligent All-Wheel Drive for elevated control and traction.
If you’re looking for a little more pep, opt for the M40i and its 3.0L BMW M TwinPower Turbo inline 6-cylinder engine. This gives you up to 382 horsepower to play with, making for an even livelier drive on the roads. Plus, with standard SPORT mode, you can test the limits while still obtaining a respectable MPG rating.
The beautiful design of the 2022 BMW X3 does not stop at the efficient powertrains, though. The inside of the vehicle was built to be equally as versatile. Luckily enough, with the fuel economy that this luxury model has to offer, you can stay inside this cabin for even longer.
The cabin features room for five occupants with 41.1 inches of headroom in the front row and 39.1 inches in the second row. Additionally, the SAV® comes with 28.7 cubic feet of cargo room for shopping bags, equipment, or anything else you might need.
This storage space can be extended to 62.7 cubic feet when utilizing the standard 40/20/40 split fold-down rear seats. Using this feature will allow you to fit larger items in the vehicle for easy transport.
Not forgotten with the interior is the importance of comfort. The vehicle comes with numerous features to ensure a comfortable driving experience. With standard and available features, like multi-zone Climate Control, heated and ventilated seating, and a Panoramic Moonroof, you’ll be cozy in the lap of luxury.
