Regrettably, the 2018 BMW X3 does not offer a remote start feature as a standard option. However, you have the option to have it added as an upgrade to your vehicle, allowing you to remotely start your engine using the original key fob after installation. With the remote start feature, you can start your engine from a distance and activate the heater or air conditioning without physically having to be inside your car. Typically, you can access the remote start function through a designated button on your key fob, though the symbol for this button may vary across different vehicle brands. While the BMW X3 does not come equipped with remote start, you can have it installed on your vehicle for an estimated cost of $500. Be sure to inform the dealer in advance if you want this feature included in your purchase.

The 2018 BMW X3 does not offer remote start as an option. However, a retrofit is available for the BMW F15 X5 and F10 5 series to add Remote Engine Start functionality. This retrofit allows you to use the original key fob, eliminating the need to carry an additional remote. Unfortunately, the BMW Connected Drive app lacks remote start capabilities, meaning smartphone remote start is not an available feature at this time.
