Unique Features Of The 2018 BMW X3

Though the second-generation BMW X3 has been on sale since 2011. Its constant enhancements has made it a sales outstanding. BMW  have been busy building a new 2018 BMW X3 which is set to be launched before the year ends. The car features and design are will bring a shift of gravity in the auto industry. This is due to its custom design enhancements. They are:

Outstanding interior and exterior design

The old X3’s interior looked cheap . By contrast, the new X3’s cabin is plush and premium, with a richer mix of colors and materials. In addition,it has digital dash hardware and switch gear. This has been trickled down from the more expensive 7 and 5 Series. The dash is dominated by a 10.0-inch infotainment display screen that BMW claims is the largest in the segment and can be controlled up to four different ways via touch, gesture, voice, or the good old-fashioned iDrive controller. With the rear seats up, cargo capacity is 28.7 cubic feet. The seats can be folded flat via levers just inside the rear hatch to increase that to 62.7 cubic feet.

The exterior design is an evolution of the previous X3’s, though it articulated the current BMW house style, with fuller surfaces and softer lines. It not only looks more sophisticated than the old X3, especially riding on 19/20 inch wheels, but also boasts an impressive drag coefficient of just 0.29.

Powerful gear

BMW has positioned this model as the hero vehicle of the new X3 lineup. In addition to the punchy six-cylinder engine, it comes with bigger, more powerful Sport brakes—13.7-inch rotors up front with four piston calipers and 13.5-inch units at the rear versus 13.0-inch rotors and single piston calipers all round on the regular X3s—plus 19-inch wheels instead of 18s and sportier suspension and steering calibrations.

Sports race mode

It’s sports sedan quick,  especially with everything set in Sport + mode. BMW claims a 4.6 second 0-60-mph acceleration time, and, if you ask nicely, it will reset the 130 mph speed limit to a proper storming of 155 mph. It dives into corners with hard grips and then punches out past the apex once you get on the gas. Left to its own devices, the eight-speed automatic feels alert and responsive. However,  fanning the paddles is still better for ensuring you’re in the gear you want, exactly when you want.

Perfect steering capabilities

As is the current trend in BMW, the rim section of the sports steering wheel is too thick and sculpted. This makes you feel like you’re wearing boxing gloves when you driving. And, paradoxically, the extra effort that’s been dialed into the system in the name of ‘sportiness’ actually makes the it steering quicker than that of the regular X3.

This model will grab all the headlines when it will be brought to the market. Its crazy and captivating features will be out of this world.
