2025 BMW X3 30e xDrive G45 Auto 4x4

This 2025 BMW X3 30e xDrive combines the practicality of a mid-size SUV with plug-in hybrid capability and BMW's familiar focus on driver engagement. With just 1,511 km, it presents as a lightly used demonstrator in Dune Grey, paired with a black interior and the elevated seating position, flexible cabin and everyday versatility expected of the X3.

The 30e powertrain uses a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine alongside a 135.0 kW electric motor, producing a combined 220.0 kW. Its hybrid configuration is designed to make short urban journeys quieter and more efficient when sufficient charge is available, while the petrol engine provides the flexibility required for longer trips. The listed combined fuel consumption is 1.6L/100km, although real-world results will depend on charging habits, trip length and driving conditions. A 22.1 kWh lithium-ion battery can be charged using the supplied Mode 2 flexible charger or a Mode 3 public-charging cable.

Power is delivered through an eight-speed Steptronic sports automatic transmission and constant four-wheel drive. Adaptive suspension, variable sport steering, gearshift paddles and M Sport brakes give the X3 a more purposeful dynamic character, while the SUV format retains useful ground clearance and a practical footprint. Towing capacity is rated at up to 2,000 kg braked, adding flexibility for approved towing applications.

Inside, the equipment mix is aimed at making regular driving comfortable and convenient. The M Sport package brings sports seats, a leather steering wheel, aluminium interior trim, anthracite headlining and distinctive exterior details. Front seat ventilation, heating for both front and rear seats, electric adjustment with memory, lumbar support and a heated steering wheel help tailor the cabin to changing conditions. Comfort access, automatic climate control, rear sunblinds and a power-operated sunroof with blind add further convenience, while the luggage-compartment net supports more secure storage.

Technology is centred on BMW Live Cockpit Professional, with a personal eSIM, wireless device charging, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A head-up display helps keep key information within the driver's view, while DAB+ radio and the multifunction steering wheel provide straightforward access to entertainment and vehicle functions. The vehicle also features an interior camera and an integrated dash cam among its technology and monitoring equipment.

Driver-assistance equipment includes Driving Assistant Professional, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, lane-departure warning, road-sign recognition, brake assist and active pedestrian protection. Parking Assistant Plus is intended to simplify low-speed manoeuvring, and adaptive LED headlights improve forward illumination. Six airbags, a tyre-pressure monitoring system, an anti-theft security system and a tyre repair kit form part of the safety equipment.

The X3 offers 460 litres of listed minimum luggage capacity, expanding to 1,600 litres with the rear seating arrangement configured for additional load space. With five doors and five seats, it is suited to owners who need everyday practicality without moving to a larger SUV. The demonstrator is listed with the balance of a five-year BMW factory warranty from its initial registration date.
