2014 BMW X3 Facelift Launching Today In India

Exhibited earlier this year at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, BMW India will now launch the X3 facelift here today. Since, it is just a mid-life makeover, the crossover will mainly receive cosmetic changes and minor technical upgrades.

The front-fascia of the updated X3 gets relatively larger head-lamps with a rather prominent BMW kidney grille. That said, the LED infused head-lamps are likely to be offered as an optional feature. The front and rear bumpers have also been revamped, while other changes include ORVMs with side blinkers and restyled alloy wheels. BMW will most probably also introduce new body paint options.

Other noticeable changes include a piano black centre console, near leather upholstery, new cup-holders and automatic boot-opener. Talking about the engine options, the vehicle will continue to be powered with the same set of engines - a 2.0-litre and a 3.0-litre diesel. However, the 2.0-litre engine might offer slightly more power than before.
