Introduced in 2017, the third-generation BMW X3 G01 made a decisive technological leap by migrating to BMW's lightweight CLAR modular platform. Shedding up to 55 kg while expanding interior room and structural rigidity, it delivered a remarkably refined driving experience akin to a contemporary 5 Series. Keeping this capable executive SUV in prime condition requires structured BMW X3 maintenance, ensuring both mechanical and electrical systems receive prompt attention.
The powertrain portfolio featured the modular B47 diesel (20d), the muscular B57 straight-six diesel (30d, M40d), the B48 petrol (20i) and the charismatic B58 straight-six petrol (M40i), alongside the xDrive30e plug-in hybrid. All engines were paired with the outstanding ZF 8-speed automatic gearbox and intelligent xDrive. The 30e PHEV variant features a 12 kWh high-voltage battery and dedicated cooling loops that require regular health checks.
