The car is pretty average feeling in everything but Sport Plus IMO, but when you get on it in any drive mode, it will take off. Sports Plus feels like lunatic mode IMO. I personally spend a lot of time in eco pro as I commute around 45 miles on a highway to/from work for fuel efficiency, and it feels like a Toyota Corolla, unless you floor it.
Handling is not this cars strong suit, it is so damn heavy and BMW did magic tricks to try to not make it feel heavy.

You definitely noticed the X3 weight when you went around a corner, but in a straight line it honestly Felt a little quicker to me unless I’m just remembering it more fondly than it was maybe the car just needs a little bit more time to wake up. I’m about 40 miles off 500. I’ve obviously been trying to be a little gentle with it because it’s new.
