THE new BMW X3 was unveiled in London before it goes on sale in June.

The new model features expressive styling, new colors, and revisions to the interior design and trim options.

All models now feature more standard equipment, while customers can also choose a new xLine model to further personalize their X3.

Aside from its length, which has grown by a single centimeter, it has the same compact dimensions of its predecessor.

However, the new X3 features a host of design changes.

At the front end, new twin circular headlights — available in optional full LED specification along with optional LED front fog lamps — combined with the prominent BMW kidney grille and its new surround.

Both the front and rear bumpers have gained new contours, while the LED indicators are now housed in the new exterior mirrors.

Four new exterior paint shades and five new light-alloy wheel designs broaden the scope for individualization.

Inside, the new BMW X3 remains in top shape, with its carefully selected materials, understated chrome applications, a center console with optional automatic climate control system (with high-gloss black panel) and wood paneling with pearl chrome highlights.

New cup-holders, with a sliding cover, can be found in the center console, and a leather steering wheel is among the standard equipment.

Customers can also choose from four new upholstery colors and four new interior trims.

The new BMW X3 continues to lead its segment in terms of both interior spaciousness and rear load capacity, offering 550 liters with the seats up and 1,600 liters with the seats folded.

The X3 is available in xDrive as standard.

The intelligent xDrive all-wheel-drive system delivers optimum traction, with power sent where it is most needed, further improving on-road dynamics and driving safety.
