BMW is about to enter its next generation, which will be headlined by a fresh family of fully electric vehicles that are based on the same all-new EV platform. Our first taste of what's to come came via the Vision Neue Klasse, a sedan concept that was revealed at the Munich motor show in September 2023.

But now the Vision Neue Klasse X has made its debut. It's an SUV concept that's also of the mid-size variety and while closely related to the sedan, it goes its own way with several unique design elements. Either way, it previews the successor to the BMW iX3 – although it may not end up using the same nameplate – and will go head to head with the just-revealed Porsche Macan EV.

In this video, CarsGuide Managing Editor Tim Nicholson heads to Portugal to get up close and personal with the Vision Neue Klasse X ahead of the production model breaking cover in 2025. Critically, it will bring with it a new-generation EV powertrain that will deliver longer driving ranges and quicker charging times, among other advancements.
