Lincoln MKX vs. BMW X3 Review

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs roughly the same to get the BMW X3 to the dealership as the MKX. With respect to fuel economy, the BMW X3 is a bit better than the Lincoln MKX, but not by much. The Lincoln MKX won't tax your gasoline budget substantially more than the X3 will. The X3 isn't much less expensive than the Lincoln in terms of MSRP.

The X3 and the Lincoln MKX can accommodate the same number of passengers. There's no clear winner between the BMW X3 and the MKX when it comes to transporting cargo. The BMW X3 outpulls the Lincoln MKX by a massive margin.

Convenience
The BMW X3's fuel tank will need to be replenished a little more often than the unit in the Lincoln MKX.
