- The BMW X3 launched the mid-size Sports Activity Vehicle segment
when it arrived on the scene in 2003. More than 1.5 million units of
the X3 have since rolled off the assembly line and now the
third-generation model is ready to take over the baton. - Eye-catching design ensures distinctive looks and highlights the
car’s dynamic mission statement and familiar X character. - Customers can choose from three model lines – xLine, Luxury Line
and M Sport – and the BMW Individual range of products to align the
inside and outside of the new BMW X3 even more precisely with their
personal tastes. - The range-topping BMW X3 M40i will be the first M Performance
Automobile in this model series. - Carefully honed chassis, including reduced unsprung mass and
sophisticated axle kinematics, elevates sporty handling to another
new level. - From the launch of the new model (or shortly afterwards), the
engine line-up will feature three petrol and two diesel engine
variants with outputs from 135 kW/184 hp to 265 kW/360 hp (fuel
consumption combined: 8.4 – 5.0 l/100 km [33.6 – 56.5 mpg imp]; CO2
emissions combined: 193 – 132 g/km)*. All models come with the
eight-speed Steptronic transmission as standard. - Weight reduced by up to 55 kilograms from the predecessor model
thanks to intelligent lightweight construction; class-leading
aerodynamics (Cd = 0.29).
- State-of-the-art operating system, with optional gesture control

including Steering and lane control assistant, Lane Change

cars and the outside world.
