X3 (G01)
The third generation is codenamed G01 and was unveiled in June 2017. Drivetrains include two 2.0 litre diesel units known as B47, a next-generation 3.0 diesel engine (B57), and a petrol variant (B58): a gasoline-powered, turbo-charged straight six with a displacement of 2998 cc and a plug-in hybrid.
It was designed by Calvin Luk, BMW's Australian designer.
Technology is shared with the BMW 5 Series (G30), such as gesture control (optional), LED exterior and interior lighting, and the BMW iDrive 6.0 system with a 12.5-inch touch-screen monitor for navigation systems. Depending on the model, the new X3 is as much as 55 kg (121 lb) lighter than a comparably equipped corresponding model from the previous X3 generation.
In July 2018, BMW introduced the ability to option the X3 with the sDrive intelligent rear-wheel drive system.
The plug-in hybrid version for the X3 will come to Mexico in 2020.
