The first prototype for BMW's new X3 has broken cover, and our spies have snagged the first set of photos on the streets of Munich.
Despite the camouflage, the sleekness of the revamped X3's new shape is unmistakable. There appears to be some of the X6's smooth greenhouse flow from the A- to C-pillars, but without the sacrifice to rear headroom and cargo space. From this first look, it seems that a little more "sportwagen" has crept into the new X3's design.
The new X3 is reportedly based on the 3-Series platform, but it has been stretched and widened to add some additional functionality to the shape.
The new X3 will also be built at the Spartanburg, S.C., plant that also builds the X5 and will produce the new X6 luxury crossover.
