Exterior Design that Stands Out

The 2026 BMW X3 has a bold exterior design with sculpted body lines, a metal-look grille, LED projector headlights with automatic high beams, and perimeter approach lighting. The available BMW Iconic Glow Kidney Grille adds illuminated presence at night.

Wheel options include standard 19-inch Aero Midnight Grey Bicolor wheels on the X3 30 xDrive and staggered 20-inch M Jet Black wheels on the X3 M50 xDrive.

Available Exterior Colors Include:

Engine Specs and Driving Performance

The X3 30 xDrive features a 2.0-liter TwinPower Turbo inline 4-cylinder engine with 48V mild-hybrid assistance, producing 255 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. It delivers 0–60 mph in 6.0 seconds and achieves an EPA-estimated 29 mpg combined.

The BMW X3 M50 xDrive raises the bar with a 3.0-liter M TwinPower Turbo inline-6-cylinder engine and a 48V hybrid system that generates 393 horsepower and 428 lb-ft of torque. It accelerates from 0–60 mph in just 4.4 seconds.

Both trims use an eight-speed STEPTRONIC automatic transmission and BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive. The X3 30 xDrive can tow up to 4,001 pounds, while the X3 M50 xDrive increases towing capacity to 4,850 pounds.
