BMW’s head-up display will be on the options list for the first time
Car and Driver
In up front and center on navigation-equipped vehicles, there's the latest version of iDrive, with a big, bright 8.8-inch LCD screen, and they include full iPod integration and enhanced USB connectivity. Real-time traffic information is also included.
Other noteworthy options—most offered in somewhat pricey packages—include heated front and rear seats, xenon headlamps with adaptive light control, a panorama roof, and a power tailgate. A head-up display, which projects some gauge readouts onto the windshield is also now available. Oddly, while a 60/40-split rear seatback is standard, a 40/20/40-split rear seatback with fold-down armrest is optional.
Conclusion
You could potentially spend a bundle on the 2011 BMW X3 if you check a lot of option boxes, but the base model is better equipped than many rival luxury crossovers.
