The next X3

Smithy2014 · 02-03-2016, 04:35 AM

There doesnt appear to be much news around regarding the next X3, does anyone know when it is expected to arrive? My current lease on my F25 X3 ends in 13 months time by which point I was hoping the new model will be out but it looks increasingly unlikely.

May plump for a LC1 but sods law I get one of those and 6 months later the new one arrives making my 'new' car outdated straight away. There are other options such as the F-Pace that I may consider but my X3 has been a faultless unlike my previous Land Rover's so are quite keen to stick with the brand.

When the time gets near, talk to a couple of dealers and explain your situation and they may have options--extend your current car, or something. If the dealer knows that they have a sale in the bag, that may open up some options.

If you go by the book, the G01 should be released Late Spring - Fall 2017. Normal model life cycle of the F25 2011-2016.

Im expecting to hear about it towards he end of the year and to be released in April next year?

A document released called the production plan indicates that the EOP (end of production) for the current F25 model X3 is July 2017. This would indicate that the new G01 is due later in 2017.

Interesting, so on the basis that production doesnt start until August 2017 I doubt any deliveries to the UK would be made until December 2017 at the earliest. Looks like I may be taking out a two year lease on another X3 to get me to March 2018, if I do i will definately be ticking the variable dampers box this time around... (unless I go down another route...)

oh wow, two more years from now then.....

I have been hearing pretty much the same when i took delivery of my X3 2 weeks ago. The G01 will be hitting showrooms around the spring of 2018 in the UK

robwils · 02-05-2016, 06:23 AM

Must admit its been a factor up to now in my search for a new car, 2 years away is no issue for me now then

touchfan · 02-07-2016, 11:46 PM

I was of the impression that the G01 was for the 2017 model year, which would have been an April 2017 deliverable. Is it formally the 2018 model year? Based on what you guys are saying in this thread it seems to be the case.

Judging by how the past, the 5 series F10 was out mid 2010 and due replacement early 2017, to be shown to public toward end of this year, the X3 was out in Jan 2011 I guess a strong chance for it to be released 6 months after the 5 series like last time, i.e. 2nd half of 2017. With quite few cars now completing in this sector , the F Pace jag, Porsche and Audi’s will not be surprised if it is released early 2017.
