The new X3's design is vastly different from the older model

Visually, the new X3’s design is miles away from its predecessor inside out. While the silhouette of the SUV is more or less the same as before, it gets a cleaner design, with softer body lines, and more prominent haunches. Up front, the X3 gets more angular headlamps that house dual L-shaped DRLs, a larger version of the kidney grille, and a prominent air dam on the front bumper. Towards the rear, the new X3 gets new taillamps with T-shaped graphics. The new BMW X3 is 34 millimetres longer than its predecessor, 29 mm wider, and gets a 25 mm drop in height.
