X3 M for me. Looks amazing, sounds mega, fun to drive and practical at the same time. What's not to like? And 3.8 seconds 0-60 is ballistic for an SUV! That was supercar territory not many years ago.
Just brought the new X4M Competition wow it has just blown me away, it does everything that everyone says but feels ten times better in real life. When it comes to looks I believe the X4M Competition looks far superior with its sleek look and that aerodynamic back end gives it a faster sportier look than the X3M competition square box shopping trolley soccer mums SUV/SAV. As far as feeling different the X4M Competition feels great with its low roof line that gives you the sensation of being in a high performance sports car. I'm 6'2.
Nikita Mashtalyar Yeah and for me the Rear End of the X4 is a No Go. I just dont like the Look of it. But thats okay, thats why you can choose.. If i had to choose, i would def get the X3M
@@nikitamashtalyar6704 How can they be "literally the same" except for completely different rear end and roof? Me thinks you literally don't know what "literally" means.
Who would have thought that one day the X3 actually would become a good looking car - No more complaints from me on this, well done BMW even that I dislike SUV´s in general unless they are bought to serve an SUV purpose with some terrain and offroad driven included.
Physics, Matt: The X4 carries a few pounds less high above the ground in the rear than the X4, improving its cornering ever so slightly. But I also firmly consider all SUV coupes to be a gastly error of judgement by all parties involved in their existence, so there's that =)
I owned an 2016 X4 about 3 years ago, but sold it last month. My wife didn't like it when I brought it home but as time passes she started enjoying driving it. Looking at the new X4M, my wife was like, that's our next car for sure lol.
That is awesome performance from a six cylinder engine! Well done, M Division! And it looks really good too! Like you, Mat, I prefer the X3M. Can't wait to hear your review when it hits UK roads, though.
I really wish people would get the difference between AWD and 4WD. AWD powers all the wheels via a center differential and distributes power via clutch packs. 4WD employs a transfer case which can either just connect the other wheels or go into a low ratio mode for crawl situations. Even AWD systems with a transfer case typically lack the ability to change ratios and just disconnect the other wheels when requested
I know its an unpopular opinion, but I love the sound of those 6 cils you get in m3 or rs5. It just sounds more sophisticated than the v8's in lets say the c63. And the sound when it shifts is lovely as well
Matt. Although you drove the X3M on road and the X4M on track, did you also drive the X3M on track and X4M on road ? Did you find any difference on both these magnificent machines ?
Maxi the manufacturer sets the test locations. That’s why most reviewers videos look similar. Look out for the same licence plates in reviewers videos. Manufacturers usually use about 20 cars for press review events so many reviewers use the same cars as each other.
Yep true it’s slower. Car and driver tested this x3m at 3.3 seconds 0-60! That is quicker than a glc63s. Mercedes have dropped the ball and fallen behind BMW in most classes. This X3M evens pulls on a track hawk 707hp over the quarter mile.
That stick of truth though 👌🏻
You guys aren't ready for that kind of girth just yet...I've been stick of truthing for a year now. Don't run before you can walk!
so true
Please do a comparison of BMW X3 M, Mercedes GLC 63, Alfa Stelvio QV, Porsche Macan Turbo and Jaguar F-Pace SVR!
Rush That’s a review that I’d love to see too!
Yeah that will be soo cool...
I'd like to see BMW X6, GLE Coupe and Cayenne Coupe :D
The Stelvio Quadrofoglio is so pretty
Yes do this please
3.8s on an suv with 2tons . How it will perform on the m3 3.4/5 for sure !
I Don't think so. M3 will probably be rwd
@@mojo6112 next M3 will have the same x drive system fitted to the current M5. AWD unless you stick it into pure RWD for sliding shenanigans 😁
MO JO new m3 with be awd as standard
3.2s in m3 with 500KG LESS WEIGHT
Alb in Probably around 3s I guess...
New s58 engine sound so much better than previous one in m3!
Mindau agreed
100% agree way more depth
Yeah, sounds quite angry!👌🏻
Nah s55 with MPE and full send sounds alot better. This just sounds like a idk 340i or 335i. Pretty dam lame for an m car.
Finally bmw got M straight 6 to sound good
X4 still not ready X3 all day long loved the look sound

The X3M just looks like a proper BMW... Love the Design. The X4M is just a No
But BMW is the one who introduce coupe roof on SUV, so, it's a proper BMW too..
Not a fan of the tailights they introduced on the new X4 and 3 series

I almost always agree with your verdict! Your vids are fun and very informative. I particularly love the X4M Competition though.
3.8 seconds? That's hella fast
FalconGamer58 and it’s a 3.0 engine
@@iluvleechaerin impressive
The BMW diesels with a remap can do this. BMW just make great powertrains.
Just imagine how quick the M3 Comp. will be with AWD and about 400 kilos less
@@eliaspemmerl5152 Yea will be silly fast. Maybe 3.4s 400kg is a lot of weight.
I love the M1 and M2 buttons. Perfect for everyday driving. Setting 1 for absolute comfort and then setting 2 for all-out, guns blazing driving!
i just love that sound of the 3.0l straight 6
Love the new X3M. I don't know why bmw didn't make this model until now, it makes a lot of sense for people who would want a smaller performance X5.
Must say BMW is coming back at merc with a bang. M5, M8 this and X4M. All great. I still prefer the thunderous V8 of the GLC 63 though.
I have a regular new X4 with 2.0D and gives lots of fun. Can't imagine driving the M one...

New engine based on B58 is - OMG - from the different world. Can't wait for new M3. Thank You, Mat
Tested at Nurburgring, driven on school run.
It’s weird, I prefer the regular X3 over the regular X4. But in this case, I’d rather have the X4M. It just suits it better.
3.8 seconds is absolutely mad. Imagine how fast that’s going to be in the lighter more streamlined m3 and m4. We are talking low to mid 3’s. Madness.
The other kids put out videos early yesterday... none were as good as this, that X3M is simply amazing. Well done Matt!
carwow 'girthness' scale.1=twig,2=stick and 3=log of truth
He used the twig on TheStraightPipes lol.
I think all the car companies should hire mat watson for launching the car... He gives the correct and the real timing.... 👍👍👍
Legend says if you’re early, carwow will reply to you
REPLY
That was a cheap move..
Actually I've watched these BMW review from straightpipes, but here I am watching again, just to listen to Matt. Love from Malaysia! 🙌🏻💘
Already watched*
GLC 63 just for that V8 soundtrack

The X3 looks way better than the X4
I disagree.. you are wrong! The X4 is way better looking!
I got to say, if Matt wasn't reviewing these cars, I wouldn't watch. He's is pure personality.
That is correct 👍
He has a different vibe on reviewing cars
Glc 63s with V8 is the best choice 😈🚀
Damn 0-60 in 3,8 seconds?? That's faster than Lamborghini Diablo for an SUV that's insane!!! 😀😀
Those "competition" badges look absolutely ridiculous on an SUV.
Whats excellent is how well it sounds. Great news for the new M3/M4.
I love watching hippos go fast. Even though unnatural, it is funny as hell
This sounds so much better than the s55. Having the B58, I can’t imagine how this S58 would be.
"Handles the bumps quite well", as Mat drives across a billiard table.😅
Great review. Unlike whoever Topgear sent and came away plain hating the car
Watching another videos until carwow notification pop up
Donington Grey is such a beautiful color on that X3 M 🥰
You are selected for mission impossible 7 after watching your thumbnail...👍

OMG, that X4M rear always surprise me when ever I see it
6:18 What app are you using for the acceleration test?
Drag Racer
I like x3m competition and x4m competition, the most beautiful cars
You should've put the GlC 63 amg coupe on the poll. It looks way better.
Totally agree with your verdict! :-) X3M,X4M,M2,M3,M4,M5 sprint needed

*If you can*
its continental GT

Agreed ser glc s are just shit when it comes to driving
wait thats bmw

Perfect interior, superb gauges, thank god grill is seperated. All BMW’s should share that three things

Five second penalty for BMW X3M,because of being to fast
for being faster than mercedes
