Nice to see these updates. The roofline looks better along with a heavily upgraded Interior. I'm in for a X3M.

Maybe x4m

So when exactly does the new model go on sale in the US? (Month/Year).

[hinckley]

Wow. Looks like the engine size war may be replaced by the screen size war. 60 inch 4K in a few years??

[Yeineken]

All I can say is if this new X3/X4 is anything like our X5 I may consider adding a X3/4 M to our stable.

Please fix the interior quality. We are behind in terms of fit and finish to everyone in the category.

[MRV99]

Hey looks like I can buy my original E53 with newer technology and new styling. Bravo BMW, I can downsize to what I had in 2004

[Cl0ud7]

Can't wait for this...Wantzzzz X3M so bad!!



That navi screen seems so big though...Like the car behind could see the whole thing lol......

[cc3]

Critical model for BMW they have to get this right. Will be on my list to consider but competition is so strong now

[3M TAPE]

Man... the design is so boring.
I am already bored with X1 design.

[pbjjj]

Looking good!

I am not sure why BMW even bothers with camouflage because the exterior looks like a bigger F48 X1. The front has the LED unit and design from the F30 LCI 3 series, and the kidney grill will be big with design similar to the one on F48 X1. The signature X bumper fog/driving lights are guaranteed to be where they are on current X models. The side has the same look and feel as the F48 X1 with the sloping line stretching from the front wheels upward to the C pillar connecting to the brake light line. The brake lights have the modified L shape and look as the F48 X1.

Don't get me wrong. I love the look of the F48 X1 and can't resist taking pictures of it every chance I have. I think G01 X3 will look stunning after BMW removes the camouflage.

[pbjjj]

The interior looks like what's in the current 3 series with a bigger iDrive monitor. That thing is huge!

I wish BMW would put a smaller version of the fronts seats in the X1 because the seats look much much better and more comfortable than what's in the X1 now.

I heard rumor of a possible remote start, but no clarification.

The 5 wagon should be back for 2017. You gonna buy one?

[paulo_f80m3]

This won't be a 2017.. 2018 yes.

[SCOTT26]

As if there was any doubt to what it is.

A macan turbo wannabe?
With that said adress all the issues I pointed out and who knows maybe your company will see my £££'s again

[ron_jeremy]

I really don't get it, the current X3, F25 have sold well, very balanced car, boring inside yes.
But it's a premium SAV and with few problems and few downsides. The competition have struggled against the F25, yes the Macan is nice but the Jag...?
Testing is shortly, but knowing LR/RR, it's basicly a Discovery sport twin, as such, not very impressive i think. One thing is paper specs, another thing is bringing SW and HW together. Tata does not have the resources and experience matching BMW in this area, not even close!
As for the new X3, i expect a more high end interiour, but building upon it's core strengths, If so, it should do excellent, yet again.
And it's basicly the model who hold it's price best, at least it's a fact in Norway, extremly popular package.

I wasnt very impressed with the Fpace - saw it in frankfurt M show. Could have been a preproduction model but the interior quality was as poor as the current x3, outdated boring interior design and the rear exterior, like the XE, looks very 90's. With that said it will sell like crazy! That badge will do the job. It might been fun to drive havent tested it

[SCOTT26]

The biggest issue F-Pace will face is internal.
Especially against the Range Rover Sport. It will be a matter of status or preference.

If they introduce a cheap version like bmw does (sdrive 18d) watch it outsell the x3. Btw s drive on an suv? Makes sense...the "ultimate money machine"? When will bmw get rid of that old so last century "the ultimate drive machine"? Surely it could be banned someday for misleading consumers no?
