Is it necessary to use premium gasoline in my BMW X3?

I've heard that premium gasoline is recommended for BMW vehicles, but it's more expensive. Is it really necessary to use it in my X3? Will using regular gasoline harm my engine?

Yes, it is highly recommended to use premium gasoline in your BMW X3. BMW engines are designed to run on high octane gasoline, and using regular gasoline can potentially cause engine knocking and damage in the long run.
