There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the BMW X2 will have less of an impact on your bank account than the BMW X3.

Dimensions
Since the BMW X2 is much slimmer than the BMW X3, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. The BMW X2 is slightly shorter than the BMW X3, which may make it easier to park.

Handling

The BMW X2 has a little less horsepower than the BMW X3.

Powertrain
With similar torque, the BMW X2 and the BMW X3 are about even in transmitting their respective horsepower to the wheels.
