I kinda like it! I dont think its too busy. Busy is Lexus' front end... I think this looks pretty appropriate. Just the right amount of agressive looks.
M-Sport make it look cleaner in front. This's ///M40. I want to see non-///M version like X3 35

I love BMW, but you're blind if you think the front end of the RX/NX is more busy than this. The Lexus front end is pretty clean compared to the X3. There are way too many lines and countours on the front of the BMW imho, I like the current gen a little better tbh. But the new interior looks great.



Dude you have it backward. Pos Lexus has too many stupid lines and the front diffuser is a joke compared to X3

The front probably would've looked better if they connected the lights to the grille.

New Volvo XC60 > New BMW X3...at least in aesthetics.

Ok further review leads me to believe that's got to be a rendering. I guess I can stop and breathe.
Nice lil SAV.

Need to see the car in person but from the pictures I'm not a fan of the front end. Too bulbous looking. I'm more of a fan of the squared off look on SUVs

Good enough?

Obviously most BMW-fans will take it to heart - but what about new customers?

To me, general impression is X1 - for good and bad.

Also some "mistakes", like two exhaust outlets on one side only, has been rectified.

Weight, handling and interior sound need also to be upgraded.

I forgot: it´s a bit of risky business to start with a - supposedly - all new vehicle at top end= most complicated specification - most will start with low end and work upwards.

Looks nice. Good to see some traditional German styling working its way back to the brand, even if in baby steps.

Hopefully giant creases are next on the styling chopping block for future bmws. Can't believe those pieces of uncharacteristic pedestrian styling ever made it to bmw.

Looks like mercedes got bmw to wake up a little

My only qualms are with the rear lights which are simply too much X1 which makes it seem cheaper then it is and with the interior, which is a mix of what a 12 year old thinks is futuristic combined with the eyesight of a 90 year old. The speedo cluster and canopy are wonderful however.

Looks like an X1 just a little bigger. BMW is very stale in their designs.

Not bad! But would like to see the non-M version. With both the current X3 and the X1 I actually like the non-M best

I just don't feel it based on the pictures and it doesn't look aggressive to me at all. Anyone with me?

That looks more like a final render with a little twist on the tail lights - but actually the front I'm not a big fan of with the X1/X3 M models - trying a bit too much to look like a sports car and a little too little to look like a SUV

Honestly, I like the front of my 2013 X3 better... it looks cleaner, this new one looks too busy.

Though, I love the new interior...
