Well these grills will have to be smaller than the X5 to maintain hierarchy so I think it is all good.

Maybe its me, but I cant see one thing different. Maybe if I had x-ray eyes I could see through the front covering but since i don't its all pure speculation.

I'm probably in the minority here but I'm not really too concerned with how the facelift will look. Even though I usually buy my cars, I don't keep them much beyond the warranty period. When the time comes to change if it appeals to me I'll consider getting another. If not I'll get something that does.

Why would the kidney grilles have to become larger? They'll just join in the middle like on the iX3

That's what I think as well. I believe that the iX3 also has revised rear taillamp graphics that will make their way to the X3 LCI. Both relatively minor changes.

I'am in! Even when the camo is not (yet) revealing a disaster, there's nothing wrong to ventilate some appreciative input to the designers.

wonder if the rear LED strips will finally be able to stay on all the time....
They look so nice, but only stay on when full headlights come on, or bizzarely, when you manually switch on 'running' lights...but otherwise not during the daylight.

The camo at the rear almost makes it look like the previous generation X3 (I mean the one before G01)...

Maybe photoshop pros can render it. Perhaps it will have connected grills. Perhaps it will have kidney grills with the diamond ♦️ pattern? We'll have to wait and see.

The X3 is a very attractive vehicle, but change for the sake of change is the only way to get current lessees of X3 and competitor vehicles into an X3.

Looks very reasonable. Most interesting is the interior as it looks now like a smaler version of the X5.
Edit: It's a X5. Last edited by Ravenous666; 02-18-2021 at 12:28 PM.. |
