2021 BMW X3 Prices

Last Updated: January 22, 2021

Dropping Sales: The X3, which was the best-selling vehicle in BMW’s lineup last year, was also the top selling luxury compact SUV in 2020. Despite a 14.9 percent decline in sales last year compared to 2019, the X3 still managed to sell ahead of the second-place Lexus NX by about 7 percent. Most of the segment sales leaders, including some of the X3’s direct competitors like the Mercedes-Benz GLC and Audi Q5, experienced sales declines last year during the Coronavirus pandemic.

Above Average Prices: A base model X3 starts at $43,000, which is about $1,700 over the average for base models in the segment. A fully-equipped X3 M comes in at $69,900, which is nearly $9,000 above the class average for top-trims, though for that price you are getting a high-performance model outfitted with a powerful engine and other upgraded equipment. The X3 M is priced competitively with similar high octane alternatives like the Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 and Porsche Macan Turbo.

Time to Buy: Despite a dip in sales, the X3 was still the best-selling luxury compact SUV last year, so bargain prices may be tough to find. Regardless of market conditions, the X3 is currently the top-ranked SUV in its class, so it’s a good buy. This month's BMW deals may help you find some savings with finance and lease incentives.
