What the experts say
Independent road test by
7.5/ 10 overall · Compact Full Electric Cars
We're now used to car makers trying to redefine what a mid-sized electric SUV should be, but BMW second generation iX3 really does. The first of a fresh era of the Munich maker's Neue Klasse designs, it will badly frighten its premium rivals. If you're choosing at the up-market end of this segment, you simply can't ignore it.

The full review
“Klasse is permanent” by Jonathan Crouch · 11 min read · updated 6 February 2026
Back in 1961, BMW reinvented the way it designed and built motorcars with the original Neue Klasse models. Now, it does so again with a new electric architecture platform that will undergird its next era of development. Starting with this car, the second generation iX3.
We already had five generations of BMW EV development, but this sixth one is the first not be based on a platform originally designed for combustion drive. That was the downfall of the Chinese-made MK1 iX3 that arrived in 2020, which was heavy, unremarkable and couldn't even be had with more than one motor. But that was because BMW was throwing all its resources into developing something much better - and this is it.
Everything about this premium mid-sized electric SUV is different, not only from its predecessor but from just about everything else in its over-crowded sector. New standards seem to have been set here. Let's see how they stack up.

Good to know
The questions we get asked most.
Straight answers on what this rental covers, how soon you could have the car and what happens once you get in touch. If your question is not here, just ask.
Does this price include VAT?
No. This is a business contract hire rental, quoted excluding VAT. The monthly figure assumes the term, mileage and initial rental shown, and your final figures are confirmed in writing before you sign anything.
What is included in the monthly rental?
The vehicle itself, on business contract hire for the term and mileage you choose. Servicing, maintenance and insurance are not part of the rental quoted here, so ask us if you want them costed alongside it. We confirm exactly what your agreement covers in writing before you sign.
How long will delivery take?
It varies by make and specification, from a few weeks for vehicles already in the country to several months for a factory order. We confirm the lead time for this specific vehicle before you commit.
What happens if I go over the mileage?
You pay an excess mileage charge per mile over the contracted total, set out in your agreement before you sign. If you expect higher mileage it is almost always cheaper to contract for it up front.
What happens after I enquire?
A specialist confirms availability, lead times and final figures in writing. If you go ahead, we handle funder approval, the order and delivery, and confirm exactly what your agreement covers in writing before you sign.
Can you quote for more than one vehicle?
Yes. Tell us how many vehicles you need and roughly when, and we will come back with options and pricing across the whole requirement rather than one car at a time.
