As a car enthusiast, I particularly enjoy studying the performance details of SUVs like the BMW X3. Its weight typically ranges between 1,900 to 2,100 kilograms, depending on the configuration. For example, the 2.0T version is lighter at around 1,950 kg, while the 3.0T version weighs more, up to 2,100 kg. Weight significantly impacts the overall handling of the car—heavier vehicles are more stable at high speeds but slower off the line and consume more fuel. During my test drive, I felt that the X3's tuning is excellent, with a reasonable weight distribution that prevents roll during cornering, making it both safe and exciting for daily driving. Weight reduction technology has also advanced, with BMW using lightweight materials to make the X3 more agile during spirited driving, enhancing the fun factor. This difference is particularly noticeable when compared to performance-oriented models.
