Remember the BMW X3 M Sport? It used to be sold in the Philippines with a 3.0-liter straight-six turbo diesel engine. Well, that variant is coming back in 2024, albeit with a slightly different powertrain selection and more features as standard.

Say hello to the 2024 BMW X3 xDrive20d M Sport, whose sporty exterior is matched with features like adaptive matrix LED headlights, a sportier front and rear bumper, body-colored cladding, and 19-inch M Sport wheels. The X3 xDrive20d M Sport sits alongside the fully-electric iX3 M Sport, which has similar pricing as well and thus gives prospective X3 buyers a choice of picking a diesel or a fully electric crossover SUV.

Inside, this M Sport model is dressed with various M Sport bits such as an M leather steering wheel, sport seats with blue stitching, and Sensatec-wrapped interior panels. As for its tech features, there’s three-zone climate control, the iDrive 7 infotainment with a 12.3-inch screen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless charging, a fully digital gauge cluster, and a Harman Kardon sound system.

As for its engine, the 2024 BMW X3 xDrive20d M Sport gets the aforementioned and familiar 2.0-liter turbo diesel engine that produces 190 horsepower and 400 Nm of torque. This is sent through all four wheels via a ZF eight-speed automatic. This is good enough for a 0-100 kph time of 7.9 seconds and a 220 kph top speed.

This version of the 2024 BMW X3 M Sport retails for P4,990,000, which you can now view in BMW dealerships nationwide. With the return of this M Sport model, would you splurge on one of these, or are you going to wait for the next-generation X3 to arrive?
