BMW will reveal the new i3 in full on March 18, but the company accidentally leaked the design video, which was meant to premiere on Wednesday.

It turns out that making an EV with a long driving range, fast charging, and a fair price will attract plenty of buyers.

Since order books opened in September 2025, the BMW iX3 has reportedly racked up more than 50,000 orders, with U.S. availability scheduled for summer 2026.

If you only have $50k to spend, these are the ten best cars to test drive first.

The full-blown M version will sit at the top of the new-gen BMW iX3 family, and this is what it will look like. Do you dig the design?
