Alpina XD3 F25

2013 – 2020

The BMW X3 is a luxury SUV manufactured by BMW since 2003, based on the BMW 3 Series platform. It is currently in its third generation and is marketed as a Sports Activity Vehicle within BMW's X-line of luxury vehicles. The first-generation X3 was designed in collaboration with Magna Steyr of Graz, Austria, and all X3s were manufactured by them under contract from BMW. The second-generation X3 was produced at BMW's Spartanburg plant in South Carolina, USA. However, with the third generation, production also began at BMW South Africa's Rosslyn plant. This move came after a significant upgrade to the facility, which can now produce approximately 76,000 units annually. The production of the X3 in South Africa replaced the long-running 3 Series production in the facility. Key Points: 1.
