For over two decades, the BMW X3 has set the standard in the premium midsize Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) segment. Now in its fourth generation, this iconic model continues its legacy as a leader, blending greater sporting appeal, bold design and versatile functionality. Whether for everyday use, leisure adventures, or long-distance travel, the new BMW X3 takes its place as a multi-talented all-rounder in the brand’s core lineup.
The latest BMW X3 boasts a refreshed design language that amplifies its exterior presence and dynamic grace. Inside, the cabin exudes premium sophistication, thanks to high-quality materials, an expanded standard specification, and modern digitalisation. The inclusion of the new BMW iDrive with QuickSelect, powered by BMW Operating System 9, transforms the driving experience, setting new standards for intuitive operation and connectivity.
In addition to delivering hallmark BMW driving pleasure, the new X3 excels in safety and long-distance comfort. Precise tuning of the overall vehicle setup, combined with an array of semi-automated driving and parking systems, ensures every journey is as effortless as it is enjoyable.
Power and Efficiency
The new BMW X3 offers a versatile lineup of powertrains, designed to enhance efficiency and dynamic performance. The portfolio includes a highly efficient diesel engine and a second model with the latest-generation plug-in hybrid system. The BMW X3 30e xDrive features an electric range of 81-90 kilometres, making it ideal for eco-conscious drivers. For those seeking maximum performance, the third model (BMW X3 M50 xDrive) delivers 293 kW of power and 580Nm of torque, combining thrilling dynamics with uncompromising luxury.
A Legacy of Excellence
Since its debut in 2003, the BMW X3 has played a pivotal role in establishing the SAV segment in the premium midsize class. It has not only shaped the popularity of the BMW X range but also became the brand’s best-selling model in 2023.
The new BMW X3 continues this legacy, now produced locally at Plant Rosslyn in South Africa, as well as BMW Group Plant Spartanburg in the USA. Both facilities prioritise sustainability through resource-efficient and circular production processes.
