If you’ve been wondering what the future of driving looks like, wonder no more. The BMW iX3 has arrived, and the UK’s leading automotive journalists are unanimous in their verdict. This is the car that changes everything. Following its recent media showcase in Sotogrande, Spain, the reviews have poured in, and they’re nothing short of extraordinary.
CAR Magazine captured the mood perfectly, describing the iX3 as “almost impossible to fault” and “the best and most complete car” they’ve driven in 2025. Auto Express echoed that enthusiasm, calling it “so good, it might just be the best car on sale.” These aren’t just compliments; they’re declarations that BMW has redefined what an electric SUV should be.
The praise doesn’t stop there. The Sun hailed the iX3 as a “total game-changer”, while WIRED highlighted BMW’s achievement in making the iX3 “not only drive like a BMW, but a very good BMW.” What Car? focused on practicality, noting its “near 500-mile range and superfast charging abilities”, figures that leave rivals trailing behind. Carwow was equally impressed, praising how the iX3 “breaks all the rules of electric SUVs” by feeling far lighter than its size suggests. They added that it’s “not only capable on a twisty road, it’s actually good fun to chuck into the bends,” while still delivering comfort in town thanks to its ability to soak up bumps with ease.
“No obvious weakness, a quantum leap for EVs - proves what’s possible when you start from scratch with today’s tech. In short, this is a revolution for BMW, one of the world’s great car companies.”
When Top Gear calls something a quantum leap, you know it’s special. This isn’t just another electric crossover; it’s the first of a new generation, built on BMW’s bold Neue Klasse platform, a foundation that will underpin 40 new models by 2027.
Even the most critical voices struggled to find fault. One journalist admitted they were “clutching at straws” to identify any negatives, with minor comments limited to the absence of paddle shifters and fewer physical buttons. Against the backdrop of its strengths, the exceptional range, cutting-edge technology, and BMW’s signature driving dynamics. These details barely register.
Autotrader summed it up best: “stylish, luxurious, brimming with innovation, great to drive and practical enough to meet every family need”. In other words, the iX3 isn’t just an electric SUV, it’s the complete package. It delivers performance and efficiency without compromise, proving that sustainability can go hand-in-hand with driving pleasure.
Here at Barrett’s BMW, we’re thrilled to bring this revolution to our customers. The iX3 represents more than a new model; it’s a statement of intent. A statement that says the future of driving is here, and it’s better than ever.
