BMW has officially unveiled the new iX3, the first production model in the Neue Klasse project. The car demonstrates the company's new strategy in electromobility and promises record performance for the segment.

The iX3’s main feature is a 108.7 kWh battery with new cylindrical cells and 800-volt architecture. It provides a range of up to 800 km in the WLTP cycle. With support for 400 kW fast charging, you can add 370 km of range in just 10 minutes. This is 30% faster than the previous eDrive generation.

The iX3 50 xDrive model is equipped with two sixth-generation eDrive electric motors that produce 463 hp and 646 Nm of torque. Acceleration to 100 km/h takes 4.9 seconds, the maximum speed is limited to 210 km/h. According to BMW, the new architecture reduces energy losses by 40%, weight by 10%, and production costs by 20%.

The car uses a "superbrain" electronic system for the first time, consisting of four powerful computers. It controls most of the car's functions and makes decisions 10 times faster than conventional units.

BMW has introduced new design elements to the iX3, while maintaining its sporty look with its vertical grille featuring Iconic Glow lighting. The drag coefficient is just 0.24.

The interior has been given leather-free materials, the iDrive panoramic system and the Panoramic Vision display that stretches along the entire glass. In addition, a 3D head-up display and a new steering wheel with touch buttons are available. In the center of the front panel is a multimedia system with an updated interface.

Everything runs on BMW Operating System X software, which allows you to download apps for music, video games, streaming, etc. What's more, you can even install Zoom.

Rear passengers have more space, the trunk has 520 liters and 58 liters in the front compartment.

BMW emphasizes the environmental friendliness of the new product: about a third of the car is made from recycled materials, and the carbon footprint has been reduced by 34% compared to its predecessor.

BMW iX3 sales in the US will start in early 2026. Prices start at $60,000.
