BMW X3 ’Quickstop’ Commercial

Here’s one of the funniest commercial of the BMW X3 SUV.

Four EuroNCAP stars for BMW X3

Euro NCAP today releases the results for the Suzuki Splash, Daihatsu Terios, Renault Kangoo, Citroën C5 and the BMW X3.

Of these results, only the Citroën C5 received five stars in adult occupant protection. Unlike the previous C5, the seat belt reminder system does not meet Euro NCAP’s requirements for the front passenger seat. With the ground-breaking technology for pedestrian protection that Citroen introduced with the C6, it was disappointing to see that the C5 only received two stars.

BMW X3 received only four starts in adult occupant protection, four starts in child protection and one star in pedestrian protection.

Very poor results were received by the pick-ups: Isuzu D-MAX/Rodeo with one star and a half, Nissan Navara half star; only Mitsubishi L200 received four stars.

2006 BMW X3 3.0i

The BMW X3 enters its third year of production flush with success. In its first year, the X3 sold almost as well as the larger X5, doubling BMW’s impact on the SUV market, and there’s little sign of the trend toward smaller, more fuel-efficient SUVs cooling off any time soon.

While the X5 has injected the sport-utility segment with much needed on-road athleticism, it’s the X3 that really delivers the goods in terms of handling prowess. Perfect weight distribution (50 percent over the front wheels and 50 percent over the rear) and a center of gravity that’s low for an SUV combine with a sophisticated four-wheel independent suspension to produce tenacious cornering abilities (again, for an SUV).
