The all-new BMW X3, now available in Singapore.

Singapore. BMW Asia today announced the availability of the all-new BMW X3 in Singapore. Boasting greater sporting appeal, visual impact, and versatility than ever, the all-new BMW X3 assumes the mantle of talented all-rounder for everyday use, leisure activities and trips away in the brand’s core segment. A new design language gives the fourth generation of the Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) for the premium midsize segment much enhanced exterior presence and an aura of dynamic grace. High-quality materials in the cabin and exceptionally precise tuning of the overall vehicle setup set the tone for the premium ambience, driving pleasure, safety, and long-distance comfort. The all-new BMW X3 will have its Singapore Motorshow premiere at BMW’s largest booth yet, at the Suntec City Exhibition Centre from 9 to 12 January 2025.

“We are proud to present the all-new version of BMW’s global best-selling model in 2023,” said Mr. Lars Nielsen, Managing Director, BMW Group Asia. “Bigger, better, and bolder – the all-new BMW X3 builds on its success and delivers the ultimate driving experience customers have come to expect from the brand, while combining the latest BMW design language and powertrain innovations. The all-new BMW X3 offers the perfect blend of capability, comfort, and dynamic driving for the stylish and sporty driver in the urban jungle. As we enter 2025, I’m confident the all-new BMW X3 is poised to further solidify BMW’s position as the leading premium automotive brand in Singapore.”

The all-new BMW X3 heralds major improvements in efficiency and dynamic performance with its wide-ranging model line-up. The portfolio of powertrain comprises not just the highly efficient petrol engine. With a hike in drive power to 293 kW/398 hp and dynamic performance capabilities to eclipse its rivals, the all-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive M Performance model offers a compelling proposition.

The new edition’s aura of modernity and enhanced product substance provide the ideal basis for adding another chapter to the BMW X3 success story – one that first began 20 years ago. Since first establishing the SAV segment in the premium midsize class, it has been instrumental in the steady growth in popularity of the BMW X models and, indeed, became the brand’s best-selling model in 2023. The all-new BMW X3 is built at BMW Group Plant Spartanburg (USA) using a production process focused on conserving resources and circularity.

New design language shines the spotlight on distinctive proportions.

A new design language for the exterior helps to give the fourth generation of the all-new BMW X3 an almost monolithic overall appearance with distinctive BMW X model proportions. Generously proportioned surfaces combine with just a few, crisply defined lines to produce a clearly structured exterior that has been reduced to the essentials. The new BMW X3 is 34 millimetres longer than its predecessor at 4,755 millimetres, while width has increased by 29 millimetres to 1,920 millimetres. Together with the 25-millimetre drop in vehicle height to 1,660 millimetres and the wider tracks, this produces a very powerful and sporty look.

The large BMW kidney grille in the upright front end of the all-new BMW X3 gives off an air of assured presence. A new structure for the grille interior, comprising vertically and diagonally arranged bars, adds a fresh touch. The standard BMW Iconic Glow contour lighting forms a continuous line around each element of the grille. The daytime driving lights, side lights, and turn signal indicators in the LED headlights are now all produced by L-shaped, overlapping light sources. Adaptive LED Headlights with non-dazzling matrix high beam, urban light and cornering light functions, plus blue design detailing are standard, while M Shadowline lights are standard on the all-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive.

Bold side skirts and a roofline extending deep into the rear end are the distinguishing features of the new model’s sporty silhouette. The prominently flared wheel arches create the impression of considerable width at the rear. The flush-mounted rear window is bordered by a long roof spoiler and the adjoining side air deflectors. All model variants aside from the all-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive come with exhaust tailpipes integrated out of sight in the rear apron. The fresh interpretation of the characteristic T-shaped graphic and a satinated horizontal bar with integral turn signal indicators help to give the rear lights a very modern appearance.

The all-new BMW X3 is equipped as standard with aerodynamic wheels measuring 19 inches in size. The all-new BMW X3 20 xDrive with M Sport package creates an exceptionally dynamic look with features such as 20-inch M light-alloy wheels and bespoke design cues for optimising airflow and aerodynamic balance. The M Sport package Pro, standard in the all-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive, builds on this content by adding, among other things, the Iconic Glow contour lighting and M Sport brakes with red painted callipers.

There is a choice of one solid and eight metallic shades for the exterior paintwork of the all-new BMW X3, including the new Dune Grey metallic finish. The all-new BMW X3 20 xDrive with M Sport package and all-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive will additionally be available with BMW Individual paint finishes, including two matt shimmering Frozen options, as well as over 15 BMW Individual special paint finishes.

Sporty premium ambience and generous amounts of space.

The cabin of the all-new BMW X3 blends robust SAV functionality with ample spaciousness and a premium ambience full of individual style. The BMW Curved Display, BMW Interaction Bar, steering wheels with a flatbottomed rim, and the new-look gear selector lever are the defining elements of the cockpit’s modern take on hallmark BMW driver-focused design. Other model-specific highlights include light elements in a contrasting colour in the centre console and door trims. This new design feature is located towards the front of the driver’s and front passenger doors, where it forms a border around function buttons, ventilation controllers, air vents, and the robust door openers typically found on BMW X models. The interior’s individual ambience goes hand in hand with generous amounts of space and modern versatility. Load space can be increased from 570 to a maximum 1,700 litres.

The all-new BMW X3 is fitted as standard with newly designed electrically adjustable sport seats in Veganza, and BMW Individual Merino leather upholsteries as standard for the all-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive respectively.

All-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive with standout performance qualities.

The range-topping model, the all-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive, features the most powerful six-cylinder in-line petrol engine yet fitted in an M Performance model. The 3.0-litre M TwinPower Turbo unit links up with 48V mild hybrid technology. Its maximum output of 293 kW/398 hp is channelled to the road via an eight-speed Steptronic Sport transmission and BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive. The all-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive powers to 100 km/h from rest in 4.6 seconds.

This stunningly potent powertrain combines with the bespoke chassis technology to deliver a compelling blend of agility, dynamism, and handling precision. Adaptive M suspension with electronically controlled dampers, variable sport steering, M Sport brakes, 21-inch M light-alloy wheels and an M Sport differential integrated into the rear axle all come as standard. M-specific design features, the M kidney grille with horizontal bars and BMW Iconic Glow contour lighting, and the quartet of exhaust tailpipes all serve to underline the status of the BMW M model as the most powerful version of the all-new BMW X3.

Systematic electrification, eight-speed Steptronic transmission and BMW xDrive all-wheel drive as standard.

48V mild hybrid technology also endows all other variants of the all-new BMW X3 with enhanced efficiency and rapid power delivery. It enables the 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol unit in the all-new BMW X3 20 xDrive to generate maximum output of 140 kW/190 hp. This translates into a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration time of 8.5 seconds.

All the power units link up with an eight-speed Steptronic transmission including shift paddles on the steering wheel as standard. There is also a Sport Boost function for exceptionally rapid bursts of speed in the all-new BMW X3 20 xDrive with M Sport package and in the all-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive. All model variants also benefit from fully variable distribution of drive power via the BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel-drive system as standard.

Agility and ride comfort up their game.

All model variants of the all-new BMW X3 boast driving qualities offering a clearly noticeable increase in agility, cornering stability and long-distance comfort over the outgoing model. A body with lower weight but increased rigidity and the wider rear track both play a role here, as do the high-quality chassis components and control systems tuned for this specific model. Modifications to the kinematic and elastokinematic properties of the double-joint spring strut front axle and five-link rear axle have increased precision when turning into corners, while the 19 per cent increase in the caster offset of the steering axle is a boon for straight-line stability. Near-actuator wheel slip limitation and the integrated braking system likewise form part of the standard package of chassis technology.

Driving Assistant Plus and Parking Assistant Plus as standard.

The all-new BMW X3 offers a far more extensive range of standard systems for semi-automated driving and parking. It is equipped as standard with front collision warning, Lane Departure Warning and Speed Limit Info, along with the Driving Assistant Plus including Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go, Lane Change Warning and Automatic Speed Limit Assist. The Parking Assistant Plus (also standard) incorporates features such as the Reversing Assistant and a surround view system with 360° view cameras.

More generous standard specification for greater comfort and driving pleasure.

The all-new BMW X3 also comes as standard with ambient lighting featuring a Welcome and Goodbye Animation, a tray including wireless charging function for compatible smartphones, a Bluetooth interface, four USB-C ports, a 12V power socket in the centre console and another in the luggage compartment.

The standard BMW Live Cockpit Professional adds not only the BMW Head-Up Display, but also the Augmented View function in the control display. In addition to this, the all-new BMW X3 20 xDrive with M Sport package and all-new BMW X3 M50 xDrive also comes with Harman Kardon surround sound system as standard.

BMW Operating System 9, BMW iDrive with QuickSelect and BMW Digital Premium.

The all-new BMW X3 comes with the latest version of BMW iDrive with QuickSelect to provide intuitive, easy control. Its new home screen shows vertically arranged function icons on the same level. The QuickSelect feature allows functions to be activated directly without having to enter a submenu. The new BMW iDrive is geared squarely to touch and voice control. It is based on BMW Operating System 9, which also paves the way for a customisable selection of additional digital services. These can be made available over the air, both via the BMW ConnectedDrive Upgrades facility and thanks to an ever-expanding variety of third-party apps offered as part of the optional BMW Digital Premium package.

BMW Digital Premium allows in-car use of the specific apps available on a subscription basis. Besides music streaming, the portfolio includes a wide choice of video streaming options on the control display too. The video app in the all-new BMW X3 therefore offers customers a large number of media libraries and streaming services.

Smartphone integration using Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ is available as standard. The BMW ID and My BMW App make it easy to personalise the user experience in the all-new BMW X3.
