Comparison Review

Cost
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). Clearly, the BMW X3 is a better financial choice over the Genesis GV60, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
The BMW X3 is a little wider than the Genesis GV60, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. If you go with the BMW X3, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Genesis GV60.

Handling
The BMW X3 has a larger turning radius than the Genesis GV60, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When considering towing capacity, the BMW X3 is clearly the choice over the Genesis GV60 for pulling heavy loads. The BMW X3 has a little less horsepower than the Genesis GV60.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the BMW X3 does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Genesis GV60.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the BMW X3 and the Genesis GV60. The BMW X3 has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Genesis GV60.
