The BMW F25 is the 2nd generation model of the BMW Sports Activity Series X3, on sale since 2010. The 2011 X3 was unveiled on July 14, 2010.^[2] The new car is larger than its E83 predecessor and is assembled in BMW's Spartanburg Plant, in Greer, South Carolina in a new manufacturing facility alongside the existing X5 and X6 assembly hall.
Power for the North American version of the X3 comes from BMWs' N52 3.0L Direct Injection I6 engine for the xDrive28i shared with the new F10 528i and BMWs' new N55 3.0L TwinPower Turbo (single turbo twin scroll) Direct Injection I6 engine for the xDrive35i as seen in its larger facelifted X5 sibling.
(For the 28i the I6 N52 engine is to be replaced with the four-cylinder, TwinPower Turbo N20 engine all across the BMW lineup for the 2012 and 2013 model year; implementation date in the X3 is to be confirmed.)
Both engines are mated to either a 6-speed manual or 8-speed automatic transmission. The U.S. market gets the 3.0 inline-6 and automatic transmission combination; no four-cylinder diesel engine version will be sold. Outside the USA & Canada, the X3 is offered with three diesel engines: the 20d (2.0-liter I4 diesel), the 30d (3.0-liter I6 diesel), and BMW's new 35d (3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo I6 diesel). In some European countries, the 35i and 28i petrol engines are not offered on the F25.
Recently, the F25 has been offered with an optional M-sport package, which offers the same features as the Sports Activity Package but with BMW M signatures, such as the steering wheel emblem and the anthracite black interior headliner as well as an M styled body kit with painted bumpers.
