The 2026 BMW iX3 is the first of the Neue Klasse range. This includes new design language, as well as new tech, such as the Panoramic iDrive. Neue Klasse design will soon be implemented in other BMW models. The BMW iX3 Neue Klasse competes against the new Mercedes-Benz GLC EQ or the Audi Q6 e-tron. Marek attended the iX3 launch event at the IAA in Munich in 2025. Here's what he found out:

What are the main differences between the electric BMW iX3 and the combustion-engine BMW X3?
How does the iX3's real-world range stack up against its competitors?
How fast and convenient is the charging experience?
How does Panoramic iDrive work in the new BMW iX3?
