Is the BMW X3 available as a pure import?
2 Answers
BMW X3 is available as a pure import, which means the entire vehicle is manufactured abroad and then enters the market through import. Taking the 2021 BMW X3 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4717mm, width 1891mm, height 1689mm, wheelbase 2864mm, minimum ground clearance 216mm, and fuel tank capacity 65 liters. The 2021 BMW X3 features a double-joint spring strut front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension, with a front-engine four-wheel-drive layout. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 184PS, maximum power of 135kW, and maximum torque of 290Nm, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
The BMW X3 indeed has a pure imported version. My neighbor once ordered one directly from Germany, waiting many days for customs clearance and sea shipping. He particularly loves the authentic feel, as cars produced in Germany have more refined details. Nowadays, many on the market are domestically produced Brilliance BMWs, assembled in Shenyang, with decent quality but more affordable prices. However, if you're in a remote area or require special configurations, you can still order imported models. Imported cars come with higher taxes and slightly more troublesome maintenance, but they hold their value well. It's advisable to check the production label before purchasing to avoid being misled.
