Overview
- BMW, which confirmed Monday it will conclude U.S. allocation of the iX, will keep producing and selling the SUV in other markets into 2027, according to the company.
- The Neue Klasse iX3 begins the U.S. transition later in 2026 with Gen6 tech that includes an 800‑volt electrical system, targeted EPA range of about 400 miles, and up to 400 kW fast charging.
- U.S. iX demand fell sharply in Q1 2026, with sales down about 51% to roughly 1,788 units, a drop cited in coverage as a factor in the model’s U.S. withdrawal.
- In Europe, the iX3 has secured well over 50,000 customer orders since September and is now outselling the combustion X3, leading BMW to add a second shift at its Debrecen, Hungary plant.
- BMW says U.S. iX3 pricing details are due in April with first deliveries expected around October, while any remaining 2026 iX stock will be limited with no 2027 model year planned for the U.S.
