BMW X3

BMW has been busy with the X3, too. The compact SUV benefits from some subtle revisions inside, with upgraded materials and fresh switchgear.

There are also two new limited-edition versions, badged Lifestyle and Exclusive, which get fresh alloy wheels, interior trim options, new body
colours and storage boxes.

Engine options remain the same, so the 4x4 is still offered with a 3.0-litre petrol unit and 2.0 and 3.0-litre diesels.

The revisions aim to keep the X3 fresh ahead of the launch of an all-new model next year. But they won’t be offered on UK versions of the car – instead, great-value special editions are likely to arrive in showrooms here over the coming months.
