Same towing capacity and puts the power down better. Has less torque at 400nm vs. 420nm but same towing capacity. Also better trade in value in the longer term but higher purchase price I guess. Also has DAB radio standard, also the sat nav system is generally better overall in the BMW, but that's subjective.
Otherwise maybe a GLA200 Merc? That is obviously FWD though so not sure that fits what you are after.
