The BMW X3 is a compact luxury crossover SUV manufactured by BMW since 2003, based on the BMW 5 Series platform. Now in its third generation, BMW markets the car as a Sports Activity Vehicle, the company's proprietary descriptor for its X-line luxury vehicles. The first-generation X3 was designed by BMW in conjunction with Magna Steyr of Graz, Austria—who also manufactured all X3s under contract to BMW. BMW manufactured the second-generation X3 at their Spartanburg plant in South Carolina, United States.

The 2012 BMW X5 is a midsize luxury crossover SUV that seats five. An optional third-row bench adds two more seats, though they are quite small. Five trim levels are offered: xDrive35i, xDrive35i Premium, xDrive35i Sport Activity, xDrive35d and xDrive50i. The last three digits in the xDrive name indicate the engine

The new X5 is clearly a BMW. It’s immediately identifiable as one from a distance, and that’s a good thing. The new SUV may be larger than the old one, but the rear-wheel-drive proportions remain the same, as do many styling cues, including the “twin-kidney” oval grille. A new kick-up in the body-side lines around the rear door adds a little flair to the typical two-box SUV look, but BMW’s stylists did a good job keeping the X5 clean, modern and traditional. Its competitors look good, too; its closest rival

A high-performance athlete for the road and the racetrack, for perfect drifts, high-speed bends and the long straights in between. For adrenalin-steeped driving experiences, when the hands enclose the high-grip steering wheel with fingers at the ready to flick the responsive shift paddles. The driver in the M sport seats becomes one with the vehicle. A sports car destined to set the pulse racing – the BMW M4 Coupé.

It has an electric variant, the BMW Series 7, along with 6-cylinder 740i and V8 760i models. It adopts horizontally split headlight units featured on the X7 LCI which was also launched in April 2022. Engine options remain similar with 3.0-litre 6-cylinder and 4.4-litre V8 options but no V12 engines will be offered.
