xDrive20d M Sport Price and Specs, BMW X3

The xDrive20d M Sport is the diesel in the BMW X3 range, and it is the efficiency choice. Its 2.0 litre turbo diesel produces 197 hp and a healthy 400 Nm, sent through an automatic. Priced at ₹75.50 lakh, it sits above the petrol xDrive20 but below the top xDrive30, so it is the middle rung of the line-up.

The big draw here is economy, with a claimed 17.86 kmpl that clearly beats both petrol variants. The 400 Nm of torque arrives low down, so overtaking and loaded running feel easy and relaxed. It seats five, and the detailed feature list is best confirmed when you ask for the on-road price. That efficiency and torque combination is what makes a diesel appealing over big distances.

Pick the xDrive20d if you drive long distances and want the lowest fuel bills in the range. City-only buyers may prefer the quieter petrol xDrive20, which also costs less to buy. Those chasing outright speed should look at the 258 hp xDrive30 instead.
