About This 2017 BMW X3 xDrive28i

2017 BMW X3 Performance and Engine

Turbocharged Efficiency Meets Real-World Power

Under the hood, this X3 xDrive28i carries BMW's 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine — a powerplant that punches far above its displacement. Producing approximately 240 horsepower, it pairs seamlessly with an 8-speed Sport automatic transmission that delivers lightning-fast, smooth gear changes in everyday driving and pushes back when you want to have some fun. The result is a 0-60 time in the mid-six-second range, which feels genuinely quick for an SUV of this size.

The xDrive all-wheel-drive system is BMW's intelligent AWD setup, constantly monitoring road conditions and distributing torque between front and rear axles for confident grip. Whether you're navigating wet Southern California freeways, dry desert heat, or an occasional mountain drive toward Big Bear, xDrive keeps this X3 planted and predictable.

BMW X3 Features and Interior

A Cabin That Rewards Every Drive

The xDrive28i trim brings a well-equipped interior that balances sport and comfort. Buyers can expect BMW's iDrive infotainment interface, dual-zone automatic climate control, a panoramic sunroof on most configurations, power-adjustable front seats, and premium materials throughout the cabin. The rear seat offers genuine adult legroom — a real advantage over many competitors in this class — and the cargo area is versatile enough for weekend Costco runs or gear-loaded road trips.

The Sport designation adds visual and functional touches including sport seats, a leather-wrapped sport steering wheel, and enhanced suspension tuning that keeps the X3 feeling more agile than a typical family crossover. BMW's build quality is evident the moment you close the doors — solid, refined, and driver-focused.

BMW X3 Reliability and Ownership

What Owners and Experts Say About the 2017 X3

The second-generation BMW X3 (F25 platform, which includes this 2017 model) has built a strong reputation among enthusiasts and everyday drivers alike. The 2.0-liter turbocharged engine in this generation is considered one of BMW's more durable modern powerplants, and when maintained with quality oil and regular service intervals, these engines regularly reach high mileage without major issues.

Consumer Reports and J.D. Power have both recognized the X3 for above-average reliability within the luxury compact SUV segment. Common ownership advice includes staying current with oil changes (BMW recommends synthetic), keeping an eye on the cooling system as the vehicle ages, and using a trusted independent BMW specialist or dealership for any service needs. At 71,831 miles, this X3 is past the initial ownership curve — meaning any early quirks have likely been addressed — and is entering what many BMW owners consider the most dependable stretch of ownership.

How many miles is too many for a used BMW X3?

For a well-maintained BMW X3, 71,831 miles is very reasonable. These vehicles are engineered to last well beyond 150,000 miles with proper care. The key factors are service history and how the vehicle was driven — city vs. highway, maintenance frequency, and oil quality all matter more than mileage alone.

The xDrive28i is BMW's standard all-wheel-drive configuration on the X3, equipped with the 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. The trim typically includes dual-zone climate control, a power sunroof, iDrive infotainment, Bluetooth connectivity, a rearview camera, and premium interior materials. The Sport designation adds sport-tuned suspension and enhanced seating.

Is the 2017 BMW X3 expensive to maintain?

BMW maintenance costs are higher than mainstream brands, but the 2017 X3 is considered one of the more cost-effective models to own in BMW's lineup. Using an independent BMW specialist rather than the dealership for routine service can significantly reduce costs. Budgeting around $800–$1,200 per year for maintenance is a realistic expectation at this mileage.

Yes. The "xDrive" designation means this X3 is equipped with BMW's full-time intelligent all-wheel-drive system, which constantly monitors traction and distributes power front-to-rear as needed.
