One of the most important upcoming cars from BMW is the next-generation X3, for a couple of reasons. The first is that the X3 is one of BMW\u2019s best-selling vehicles and, in some markets, it is the best-selling vehicle. The other reason is that the next-gen X3<\/a> will come in two flavors: internal combustion and electric. The one seen in this new video is the former, which means it\u2019s based on the latest generation of the flexible CLAR architecture. (h\/t to Motor1<\/em><\/a> for finding the video)<\/p>\n

In this new spy video, you see a heavily camouflaged BMW X3 driving around in Munich. The clip is short, so you don\u2019t get to see if for very long but you do get to see the front, side, and back of it, so pausing the video at certain points can give you a good look at it. While the camo doesn\u2019t seem to have many, if any at all, fake panels, it\u2019s entirely covered in camouflage.<\/p>\n

Up front, you can see its new headlights and grille. The headlights are fairly predictable and look similar to what we\u2019ve seen from the upcoming 5 Series<\/a> in spy photos and official teasers. Thankfully, the grille looks very traditional and is perfectly reasonable in size. BMW said it wants to give most models normal grilles, while keeping its outlandish designs for its expensive, more opulent models, such as the 7 Series<\/a> and XM.<\/p>\n
