In terms of design, the new X3 is in sync with the brand’s newer SUV models, such as the X1 and X2. It features new headlamps with new LED daytime running lights, a larger kidney grille with new and updated styling, and a silhouette that, while similar to the previous model, appears more imposing, thanks to wider arches and other styling updates.

The X3’s cabin takes inspiration from other recent BMW models like the 5-Series, X1, and X2. The interior has been revamped and features a 14.9-inch infotainment display and a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, both integrated into a single unit. The system runs on the latest BMW iDrive software with QuickSelect, based on BMW Operating System 9. Ambient lighting and illuminated elements in the door sills and centre console add to the premium feel.
