Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

BMW X3
- The updated design makes it look modern and the massive illuminated kidney grille stands out.
- The cabin has a sporty design which looks very appealing for younger buyers.
- Its ride is comfortable with good space for 5 occupants.
- No significant miss in the features list and it comes with an extensive safety net.
Skoda Octavia RS
- Handles like a sports car: The steering is direct and progressive while the chassis feels like it can take on more
- Performance: Smooth and easy in the city, but quick and exciting when you want to have fun
- Super practical: Has enough storage spaces inside the cabin and a big boot for a long vacation
- Sleeper design: Doesn’t look overly aggressive, but is immediately recognizable to the people who know

BMW X3
- While it does look distinctive, some design elements might not appeal to everyone.
- Parts of the cabin don’t feel as rich or premium as they should at this price.
- While the performance is good, you don’t get the exciting handling package you expect from a BMW.
Skoda Octavia RS
- Ride quality: Can be too stiff for our broken roads
- Ingress egress is super inconvenient with a low roof that requires you to duck a lot.
- Rear seats: Adequate space, but the limited sense of space makes it feel claustrophobic
- Sound: Engine and exhaust sound a little muted for a performance-oriented car
