Fast Technology reported on April 15 that according to media reports, BMW is about to release a new generation of X3 (code name G45), which is expected to be unveiled in the next few weeks.
It is reported that the new gasoline version of the model is based on the CLAR platform and will be available in three power forms: diesel, gasoline and plug-in hybrid, while the pure electric version of the X3 is based on the Neue Klasse platform.
Judging from the latest spy photos, although the new BMW X3 test car is still heavily camouflaged, we can foresee that the new model may have a larger grille, and the "Angel Eye" LED headlights will also have a new style.
From the side, the door handles of the new car adopt a new in-line structure, and the body structure has also been adjusted, and the overall shape is more square.
At the rear, the new taillight styling gets a new look, while the high-performance version of the X3 M40i will also feature a double-sided quad exhaust layout.
In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the all-new BMW X3 are 4755/1920/1676 mm, which are 42 mm longer, 23 mm wider and 16 mm lower than the current model, respectively, and the wheelbase is still 2865 mm.
In terms of power, the all-new BMW X3 plug-in hybrid model will be equipped with a powertrain composed of a 2.0T engine and an electric motor, with a maximum power of 292 horsepower and a pure electric range of 63 kilometers.
The high-performance X3 M model will be powered by a 3.0-liter inline-six engine with a maximum power of 401 hp.
The specific power parameters are subject to the official final configuration information.
In addition, the all-new iX3 electric SUV will be built on the all-new Neue Klasse pure electric platform, forming two product iteration paths.
