New BMW X1 2022 review<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nWe can already tell the new X3 will adopt a similar front end to the X1, rather than the recently facelift X5. The headlight clusters are angled down for an aggressive look and the grilles are pretty familiar to the outgoing X3\u2019s. Between the lower air duct in the front bumper there\u2019s a structure which we assume to be the front radar.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The fairly conservative approach to the styling (certainly more than the bold 7 Series, X7, XM and X2) continues to the rear. There\u2019s a roof spoiler that wraps down and around the rear window and below we can just make out the rear light cluster, which integrates a sideways Y-shape into the signature.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The current X3 is one the oldest models in BMW\u2019s line up and as such the new car will receive a completely new interior with technology lifted from BMW\u2019s newer offerings. Expect the X3\u2019s to make use of the curved, dual-screen 12.3-inch driver\u2019s screen and 14.9-inch central display that arrived on the facelifted X5 this year. The gear lever stalk in the centre console will likely be replaced with a small toggle switch as well.<\/p>\n
The petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid X3s will be based on an evolution of BMW\u2019s current CLAR (Cluster Architecture) multi-energy platform, while the next iX3 all-electric model will transition to bespoke underpinnings as part of BMW\u2019s future \u2018Neue Klasse\u2019 (new class) technology.<\/p>\n
Expect a 48-volt mild-hybrid 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbocharged petrol xDrive20i model to open the range, with the potential for a small hike in power compared with the outgoing car\u2019s 181bhp output, while the xDrive20d \u2013 also a 48-volt mild-hybrid unit \u2013 should also be retained.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Larger 3.0-litre mild-hybrid petrol and diesel options are likely to join the four-cylinder cars, and are set to be badged as M Performance models. As per the current X3 line-up, these could be called M40i and M40d, with the petrol motor set to produce in the region of 360bhp, and the diesel a little less, at around 340bhp.<\/p>\n
All combustion-engined cars will be linked to an eight-speed automatic gearbox and BMW\u2019s xDrive all-wheel drive system, including the 30e plug-in hybrid. Expect a boost in all-electric range to push the new petrol-electric X3 beyond the X5 xDrive50e\u2019s maximum EV range of 67 miles.<\/p>\n

Top 10 best SUVs to buy 2023<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
It means a range of up to 500 miles on a full charge could be possible, according to technical boss Frank Weber, but it\u2019s unlikely that BMW will aim for anything greater than this because it\u2019s thought that the firm doesn\u2019t believe any more range in a car such as the X3 is necessary at this point. To accompany the improvement in energy density and efficiency, BMW has also confirmed the new platform will feature 800-volt electronics, while the Gen6 tech will cut charge times by around 30 per cent, with a 10-to-80 per cent top-up taking around 25 minutes, thanks to charging rates of up to 250kW.<\/p>\n
Expect prices to rise beyond the current combustion-engined X3\u2019s \u00a345,360 starting price when the new car breaks cover in 2024, while given the iX3\u2019s all-new platform technology and significantly improved range and charging capability, the starting figure will be hiked compared with the current version\u2019s \u00a363,260 price tag.<\/p>\n
