Summary

At the time of writing, we had only driven the 20d, with drives of the plug-in hybrid and M50 derivatives scheduled for the next day. Suffice it to say, this new-gen BMW X3 picks up right where the outgoing model left off, by providing a luxurious, well-packaged premium executive SUV that’s engaging to drive.

The engine range is likely to expand in the not-too-distant future, but right now, there’s little to fault the current line-up. For those who want to reduce their fuel bills, the pricing of plug-in hybrid derivatives is impressively close to that of their 20d siblings. While our petrolhead hearts desire the B58-powered M50, common sense says that a 20d (with a few choice options) is likely to be all the X3 you’ll need.

We look forward to conducting a deep-dive analysis of the new-generation X3 in the coming weeks.
