2010 BMW X3 spotted together with the current X3

We have seen the 2010 BMW X3 with the same disguise before. What makes these new photos interesting is that the new X3 prototype was spotted testing together with the current model.

Looking at the new X3 next to the current one you can see that the rear roof is lower than on the current model. Also the body is more roundish making it sportier. Other visual changes you can see are the revised headlights and tail lights.

2010 BMW X3 spied again

BMW is testing the next X3 with the worst(it is just so annoying and probably works for BMW hiding all the little details) camouflage we have seen in a while(Audi gets the first place with its A7 prototype that was covered with a huge cloth). The car looks quit similar to the current X3. Main changes will are most likely the grill and new rear and head lights.

Rumor is that the new X3 gets two new engines. New 3.0-liter I-6 turbodiesel engine in conjunction with the dual-clutch transmission. And a new 3.0-liter turbo L6 gasoline engine producing 326hp.

Spy pictures: Next BMW X3

This here should be the next X3 not the new X1 as we thought it is at first.
Dimensions of the car should stay close to what they are now. Main styling changes look to be new grill and changed headlights.

New X3 will definetely face a very strong competition from Audi Q5 and the new Mercedes-Benz GLK.
Production will be moved to the Spartanburg plant where the X5 and X6 are made.

Good laugh: BMW X3 commercial

Lot of times car manufacturers compare their new models to the ones their competitors make. Sometimes they go pretty far telling how bad their competitor products are.

This BMW X3 TV ad is kind of sarcastic and it sure has some truth in it. Most American made SUVs share the same platform with lot of other models in their lineup(usually trucks and bigger Van’s).

Look at the commercial below where a guy is driving a bigger American SUV(pretty sure it is a GM) and when approaching the traffic light he hits the brakes to see the body of his SUV taking of his car thus uncovering truck underneath it.
