BMW iX3 To Launch In September

The BMW iX3, their latest electric SUV, is poised to enter the Indian market in September 2025, introducing the next generation of sustainable mobility. As part of BMW’s Neue Klasse lineup, the iX3 will be manufactured at the company’s dedicated EV production facility in Debrecen, Hungary. This launch marks the beginning of a significant expansion of BMW’s electric portfolio, with the company planning to roll out over 40 new and updated models by 2027.

Design

The iX3’s design will focus on aerodynamic efficiency while maintaining BMW’s signature kidney grilles and design language. Blue accents are expected to highlight its electric identity. At the same time, interior materials such as Vernasca leather add to the luxury. BMW has included IconicSounds Electric, a feature developed in collaboration with Hans Zimmer. This is an attempt to replace the aural pleasure delivered by a traditional engine with artificial sound effects designed to appeal to enthusiasts.

Interior & Technical Details

The iX3 will feature the sixth-generation eDrive platform, integrating redesigned electric motors and batteries with higher energy density. The focus was on increasing efficiency and range while shortening charging durations. It will likely feature an 800V architecture to help with charging speeds. BMW has also announced that the iX3 will include a “Digital Nervous System,”. These include a new generation of computers that are 20 times faster than current-generation vehicle computer systems designed to handle future loads. These include infotainment, automated driving, driving dynamics, and essential vehicle operations such as access, climate control, and comfort.

Pricing & Launch

We expect the iX3 to come as a Completely Built Unit, as it is solely assembled in Hungary. Their facility in Debrecen is designed exclusively for EV production and doesn’t have a line to produce CKD kits.
The BMW iX3 is scheduled to be unveiled at the IAA Mobility show in Munich later this year, with production beginning shortly thereafter. Sales are expected to commence in early 2026. It will compete with the Mercedes-Benz EQC and Tesla Model X.
