Topping the all-new X3 engine portfolio, BMW’s
six-cylinder diesel arrives in showrooms ready to entice buyers with a wide-ranging list of
standard features.
The X3 xDrive30d is the most highly specified model in the X3 line-up and with a nanufacturers
list price (MLP*) of $74,900*, highlights both a lower price and increased value over its
predecessor.
Thanks to BMW EfficientDynamics technologies including Brake Energy Regeneration Automatic
Start/Stop function and Electric Power Steering, the revised in-line six cylinder diesel in the BMW
X3 xDrive30d represents the ideal combination of power and performance characteristics.
Fuel economy improves by 1.7l from 7.7 l/100 km to 6.0 l/100 km, and the reduction in CO²
emissions is an impressive 47 g/km from 206 g/km to 159 g/km. However, at the same time, power
output has been increased by 30 kW to 190 kW. Maximum torque is 560 Nm, up by 60 Nm on the previous
model, and is developed from 2,000 to 2,750 rpm, thus guaranteeing powerful pull even at low engine
speeds.
Standard features such as the larger 18-inch light-alloy wheels, Automatic Tailgate Operation,
X-Line Package, Nevada leather upholstery and electric seat adjustment distinguish the X3 xDrive30d
over the four-cylinder X3 xDrive20d.
The X-Line Package is specifically designed to give customers enhanced exterior looks that
further add value to the new diesel X3. It comprises of decorative mouldings for window frames in
Aluminium satinated, Aluminium satinated side sills, front and rear bumpers with titanium look
inserts and door sill with BMW designation.
