Comfort on side roads, Eco+ on motorways, Sport when I feel like it. Motorway cruising at 70-80 mph. Plenty of traffic hold ups and speed restictions. Not specially careful with ecomomy.

My sweet spot seems to be about 60-65 mph on a smooth motorway with no interuptions, when it will easily do 50+ mpg.

I am happy enough with this.
Thats good .. Overall my X1 is averaging 37.8 over 40k miles

The gentle cruise to/from work will get me about 41/42

Long motorway runs max about 47

So X3 is definitely better from your figures
