2026 BMW iX3 50 xDrive (NA5) Review – A Neue Klasse Above | #Review

The BMW iX3 has never been the most interesting car in the world, often referred to as 'the engineless option' against the best-selling X3. However with the NA5, the iX3 has been given the enormous task of shouldering the title of 'Neue Klasse' (or 'New Class'), a title revived from the 60s that signifies BMW's march into the future. This isn't just a new iX3, this is the first of a new generation of BMWs that will set the standard for all coming models for this generation. So with unbelievably high expectations set, we were the very first Malaysian automotive media to evaluate the iX3 on our roads... and we were left very impressed. ************************************************** 00:00 - The Neue Klasse 00:25 - EV Stats 02:04 - Performance 03:29 - Exterior Walkaround, Boot Space 11:35 - Interior, Front 22:31 - Interior, Rear 26:46 - Driving the iX3 Neue Klasse 28:01 - Big Wheels = Crashy? 30:17 - Refinement (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) 31:05 - Proper BMW Dynamics 34:17 - Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) 35:35 - Energy Efficiency 37:54 - Verdict and Competitors ************************************************** Join the MalaysianMotoring WhatsApp channel: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va1z... ************************************************** Website: https://www.malaysianmotoring.com/ Facebook:   / malaysianmotoring   Twitter:   / msianmotoring   Instagram:   / malaysianmotoring   FOLLOW AIMAN I.
