The arrival of the new X3

Speed and flexibility, innovativeness and aesthetics, power and appeal - today's drivers expect a lot from their automobiles.

Spontaneity is especially important: we all want to be able to put our plans into action quickly.

The BMW X3 is the ideal vehicle for people who enjoy their freedom. A Sports Activity Vehicle with the intelligent xDrive all-wheel drive system and a flexible interior, hallmarks of BMW's superior engineering skills and eye for stylish, practical design.

Simultaneously embodying power and elegance, the exterior of the BMW X3 is the outward expression of design principles reflected inside the vehicle as well.

Aesthetic integrity is assured by the use of top-quality materials throughout, and by the presence of unique details which delight the eye. And thanks to the raised position of the driver's seat, you are afforded a commanding view of your surroundings: this not only improves safety, but it also underscores your exclusive status as a BMW X3 owner.

The X3 comes with high-performance motorisation in the form of BMW six-cylinder in-line engines. The dynamic three-litre petrol engine is characterised by its powerful acceleration. You can be sure of the BMW X3's immense reserves of strength.  Because a Sports Activity Vehicle has to match your ambitions, every element of the BMW X3's chassis was designed to deliver maximum traction for maximum performance.

It combines an optimised double-joint spring strut front axle with a central-arm rear axle for sure-footed road-holding. Driving stability is enhanced by the even distribution of weight between both axles. Driver assistants, different transmissions and innovations such as the xDrive all-wheel drive system work together for greater traction, which makes for characteristic BMW performance on all surfaces.

Flexibility is a hallmark of the X3, but its safety standards never vary. The self-supporting chassis of this premium SAV displays exceptional stability and torsional rigidity, while its separately reinforced side profiles and high-strength occupant cell guarantee maximum passenger protection. In the event of an impact, force is largely absorbed in precisely defined areas. Airbags and comprehensive seat safety systems complete the safety package in the BMW X3.
