BMW’s new X3 will go on sale in November with prices starting at £38,800.
It’s £4,500 more than the outgoing X3 but priced competitively against the new Audi Q5 and Volvo XC60.
The 2.0-litre 190PS diesel engine remains the pick of the range for fleets, while the car itself has shed 55Kg of weight to keep running costs at bay.
There will also be an M Performance edition for the first time with a 3.0-litre petrol engine.
The range will start with the SE trim which features 18-inch alloys, climate control, sat-nav and leather seats. Mid-spec xLine adds more of an off-road look.
M Sport models benefit from sports seats and more aggressive styling.
