Agreed. "Onroad 4x4" Magazine ....  Ofcourse the Cayenne, Tuareg, Range Rover, Mitsubishi Pajero would have made much more sense . As for fuel efficiency ... hello ... 3.0 Sd  ,... plus with that torque it certainatly can tow things. | |

Onroad 4 x 4 sounds very nice. Don't get me wrong, the X3 is a great little truck but there are better offroaders out there in terms of offroad performance. I am just wondering why they picked a car that is better onroad than offroad.  | |

| Re: BMW X3 named All-Terrain Car of the Year Well the X3 Dakar version finished 4th in Dakar 2007 ahead of the VW Tuareg witch took 5th place. But that's really really modified over the production version. |

Read my post above. In Dakar 2007, the X3 finished just bellow the Mitsu Pajeros (that Schlesser buggy doesn't count). | |

I'm not mad or anything that BMW won, but I am just wondering why the X3 took the crown for reasons I mentioned in previous posts. | |

| Re: BMW X3 named All-Terrain Car of the Year Quote:
its says All-terrain, not offroad car of the year. You focus too much on the word OFFROAD. A SUV is more than just offroad driving and people didnt vote for X3 based on offroad abilities only. | |
