What's wrong with the back wheel arch lol

[Montaver]

Looks nice and boxy, almost more of a wagon than SUV. Curious to see the M variants.

My initial impression agrees with you. I just tend to reserve full judgment until I have seen a car in-person with the M performance or full M treatment since those are the only models I buy.

Can't be it. Would not be surprised though. Amazing what you can get used to.

Same here. I only get m at this point. I have a g87 and enjoy the look. At first I didn't then saw in person. I stopped judging until i see for myself. It's always different in person.

[MagicJohnson]

Whoa…not in a good way

[hrf]

Oh, what an ugly car. More reasons to get G20 now. I suspect they will butcher future 3 series as well like they did with 5.

[luvcars]

I may be the only one here 😃but Thumbs up from me. My wife is the owner of 3 generations of prior X3’s (current one being 2023 X3 Sdrive 35i), this looks more squarish, blunt and modern. Good lines. Grill feels different, introduces visual variety/complexity, keep trying something new.

If ya’ll got used to the G80, this will be fine

I had a lot of hope after seeing the ‘24 X1 M Sport in person. Really hoping this is just a weird angle.. you could always swap out the grilles. I’ve been waiting for the X3 refresh with the new iDrive to trade in my f30 for an M40 X3, but I might have to just go with the ‘23 MY.

[mbanck]

This looks like the base model, so there's hope the M-Sport grille will look different/better.

[Raikkonen]

This is the all-electric model, right?

It has a giant charge port in the fender and has a ton of design elements similar to the iX.

The grille doesn't even look like it has any openings for airflow.

This has to be electric...

[ASAP]

like i said in the other thread.. not sure why but it has serious ev dimensions... this looks more like a fwd car w the proportions but would want to see a side profile pic

[MaC-N54-E82]

Those headlights combined with the grill…. Yeesh! Not in the market but that’s just B A D

That’s because they are designing their cars for the Chinese market.

Coming soon to a Roblox server near you

[jl_bimmer]

Oh boy that grille pattern.. love it or hate it

[IAmSpeed]

The grill really only getting bigger and theres no going back

[G01Drew]

Absolutely horrible. I saw someone mention how these vehicles are starting to become similar to the design of Kia, Hyundai, and other brands… which is very true, unfortunately.

[junx]

Please show us the m sport version and let it cleanse my eyes of this atrocity

Having said that, I agree with what you're saying. This new design is not for me either, and I would certainly go back to a Macan over this... even though the Macan is severely overpriced and is less practical and smaller in the back compared to even a 3-series.

The X1 M35i is probably the play for me now as a winter vehicle.

Disappointing.

[LuisBoston]

Everyone in forums complains about new BMWs compared to the current generation, then BMW sells more of the new generations than the past.

🤷‍♂️

If BMW listened to the commentariat they’d probably go bankrupt.
