If you find the new iX3’s design a bit too soft, this rendering should change your mind. It offers a much more aggressive interpretation of BMW’s fresh design language set to define all Neue Klasse models. Over 40 of these vehicles are expected to debut in rapid succession by the end of 2027, each carrying […]

BMW is prioritizing Europe for the market launch of the second-generation iX3. Customer deliveries are scheduled to begin on the Old Continent in March 2026. If you’re in the United States, you’ll have to wait until the summer. To ensure as many people as possible can experience the electric crossover ahead of its release, the

Which is the most beautiful car ever made? Ask ten people and you’ll probably get ten different answers. Some will say the Jaguar E-Type, others will swear by the Mercedes 300SL Gullwing. Perhaps it’s the Lamborghini Miura or the Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Split-Window Coupe? Even within a single brand, opinions will vary. In the

The N55 engine debuted in the late 2000s. It was an evolution of the N54 twin-turbo inline-six, which would largely be replaced over the span of the 2010s. During that time period, it found its way under the hood of almost every BMW model in the lineup, from the little 1 Series to the 7

BMW’s Neue Klasse era is about to enter full swing with the upcoming BMW i3 Sedan (NA0), the brand’s next-generation electric 3 Series.

The BMW Group took nearly everyone by surprise in early 2022 when it acquired ALPINA. Munich didn’t buy the family-owned company itself, but rather the brand name. The intent? To use the fabled moniker on future high-end models. The focus will likely be on the largest vehicles. Think 7 Series and X7, positioned to bridge

The 2026 BMW M5 marks the second model year of the newest iteration of the decades-old M5 nameplate. The G90 (sedan) and G99 (Touring/wagon) chassis flip the model on its head, debuting a hybrid powertrain with sizable increases in both horsepower and curb weight. However, that hasn’t diminished the M5’s abilities in the areas that

BMW hasn’t shown the U11 chassis X1 a ton of love since its introduction in 2023, but the 2026 model year sees another incremental improvement over last year’s model. If you’ve forgotten, the most substantial change for last year was the addition of standard heated seats. The 2026 BMW X1 adds wireless phone charging, auto-dimming

Europe’s small hot hatch segment is dying. In recent years, we’ve had to say goodbye to the Hyundai i20 N and Ford Fiesta ST. Cars like the Renault Clio RS, Peugeot 208 GTi, and Skoda Fabia RS are already distant memories. But there are still options, albeit limited. Volkswagen still sells the Polo GTI, while
