Sportier, more modern and more digital. BMW has refreshed its successful X3 Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) with a new look, improved equipment and a range structure which has been optimised for customers.
The production of the BMW X3 at Rosslyn is a vote of confidence in the country and in BMW Group South Africa’s associates.
Driving pleasure in a variety of forms, innovations designed to increase sustainability across the board and visions for the urban mobility of tomorrow form the core of the BMW Group’s presence at the IAA Mobility 2021 show.

New look, improved equipment and an optimised range structure for the customer: BMW has given its successful Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) BMW X3 and the Sports Activity Coupé (SAC) BMW X4 a comprehensive refresh.
The BMW X3 might be perfectly at home on rough terrain and winding gravel tracks, but the Mzansi Edition of this locally-built hero displays another, more athletic dimension to the SAV with a range of sportier features.
