Colors & Wheels

Alpine White is the only no-cost paint color. Seven of eight metallic options are $650. The premium Frozen Space Silver Individual matte finish commands $3,600. Wheel options range from 20" to 22" across twelve designs — note that larger wheels reduce maximum range below the 434-mile figure.

BMW iX3 vs Tesla Model Y vs Mercedes GLC Electric

At $62,850 with destination, the iX3 sits above the Tesla Model Y base (under $40,000) but reaches Model Y Performance territory ($57,490) on power — 463 HP vs ~450 HP. The expected Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric is projected near $60,000 with 483 HP. BMW's advantage is the Neue Klasse platform, the NACS charging compatibility, and what BMW calls the Heart of Joy driving dynamics system. Note: the headline 434-mile range requires the no-cost 20" summer tire option — standard 20" all-season tires deliver 393 miles, still among the best in class.

Bonus: 20% Off Charging Through September 2026

BMW just announced that iX3 owners — and all current BMW EV owners — get 20% off charging sessions at IONNA stations across the US, automatically applied through Plug & Charge or the My BMW App. No enrollment required. IONNA has over 1,000 charging bays nationwide supporting both NACS and CCS, and select stations offer up to 400 kW charging — meaning your iX3's 10-80% charge in 21 minutes becomes an even more realistic road trip tool. The discount runs through September 30, 2026.
