The new BMW X3, launching in August, will feature petrol, diesel, and hybrid options, increased dimensions for extra space, and luxury enhancements like the Iconic Glow grille.

The upcoming BMW X3 is poised for production in August, maintaining its diverse powertrain lineup including petrol, diesel, and hybrid options. Leaked dimensions on Bimmerpost suggest it will grow slightly in length and width compared to its predecessor, offering increased cargo space. The model lineup is expected to vary by market, with specific versions like the 20d xDrive and M50 xDrive among those mentioned for potential release. The high-performance X3 M details are still under wraps.

The next-gen electric variant, the iX3, will transition to BMW’s Neue Klasse platform, promising a more distinct separation from its internal combustion counterparts. Despite the enhancements, BMW plans to reuse existing engines while elevating the X3’s luxury quotient, notably with high-end features like the Iconic Glow grille from the new 5-Series and premium interior materials. Advanced driver-assistance systems from the current model will continue, with no move towards Level 3 autonomy expected.

This model is slated for production until October 2033, with a range of standard colors like Dark Graphite and Mineral White. For more in-depth details, visiting dedicated BMW forums like Bimmerpost could provide additional insights and discussions from the BMW enthusiast community.
