From what I've read, it's the first truly relevant mainstream electric product that BMW will offer in the US and Europe. The i3 and i8 were interesting technical exercises, and the short-range plug in hybrid variants of existing models were a useful learning experience, but this X3 is a serious contender as all-electric everyday transportation for non-EV enthusiasts. Despite being a different type of vehicle at face value, I expect this to be directly cross shopped against the Tesla Model 3 since the compact car (Model 3) is a product segment rapidly being replaced by compact SUVs (X3).
Best,
Tim

BMW is going electric and presents its new Concept iX3 at the 2018 Beijing Auto Show. Guess we'll eventually see an iX3 and iX5 someday too. Cheers, Anthony ...
