On September 5, 2025, BMW unveiled the highly anticipated 2026 iX3, the first production model of its groundbreaking Neue Klasse platform, at the Munich Motor Show. This all-electric SUV marks a new chapter for BMW, blending cutting-edge technology, stunning design, and sustainability. For Bay Area drivers, Weatherford BMW of Berkeley is gearing up to bring this revolutionary vehicle to the roads of Berkeley, Oakland, and beyond. Here’s an in-depth look at the iX3 and why it’s a game-changer for eco-conscious drivers in the San Francisco Bay Area.
The Neue Klasse: BMW’s Vision for the Future
The Neue Klasse, named after BMW’s iconic 1960s lineup, is a bold reimagining of electric mobility. Described by BMW Chairman Oliver Zipse as “our biggest future-focused project,” it introduces a dedicated EV platform that promises unparalleled efficiency and innovation. The iX3, codenamed NA5, is the first of 40 new models and updates planned by 2027, and Weatherford BMW of Berkeley is ready to showcase this milestone to Bay Area EV enthusiasts.
Striking Design: Modern Meets Classic
The 2026 iX3 redefines BMW’s aesthetic with a sleek, aerodynamic silhouette that resonates with Berkeley’s eco-conscious vibe. Moving away from oversized grilles, the iX3 features a retro-inspired vertical kidney grille with optional glowing LEDs, evoking classics like the BMW 2002. Slim vertical LED headlights and horizontal light strips create a futuristic look, perfect for standing out on Bay Area roads.
With a drag coefficient of 0.24 (down from 0.29), the iX3 boasts flush door handles, smooth surfaces, and aero-optimized wheels (20-inch standard, with 21- or 22-inch upgrades). Its dimensions—4,782 mm long, 1,895 mm wide, and 1,635 mm tall—offer a compact yet commanding presence, ideal for navigating Berkeley’s urban streets or cruising Highway 1. The rear sports horizontal LED taillights and a sculpted tailgate, blending style with practicality.
Power and Range: Built for Bay Area Adventures
The iX3 50 xDrive, the debut variant, features a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system delivering 469 horsepower and 645 Nm of torque. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds, with a top speed of 210 km/h—perfect for quick getaways from Berkeley to Napa Valley. Its 108.7 kWh battery offers a WLTP range of 679–805 km (roughly 400–500 miles EPA), making it one of the longest-range EVs available, ideal for Bay Area road trips without range anxiety.
The iX3’s 800-volt architecture supports 400 kW DC fast charging, adding 372 km of range in 10 minutes or achieving a 10–80% charge in 21 minutes—great for quick stops at charging stations in Oakland or San Francisco. With 11 kW AC charging (22 kW optional) and bidirectional charging (Vehicle-to-Load, Vehicle-to-Home, Vehicle-to-Grid), the iX3 aligns with Berkeley’s sustainable ethos. BMW’s sixth-generation eDrive technology, paired with CATL’s cylindrical battery cells (20% higher energy density, 50% recycled materials), ensures efficiency and environmental responsibility.
Cutting-Edge Technology: The “Heart of Joy”
The iX3’s “Heart of Joy” supercomputing system, with four high-performance “superbrains,” delivers 10 times the processing power of previous BMWs. This centralized architecture powers everything from the drivetrain to the 17.9-inch central touchscreen running BMW Operating System X. The Panoramic iDrive system projects a 3D head-up display, keeping Bay Area drivers informed without distraction. Features like the BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant, Motorway & City Assistant, and Symbiotic Drive with AI-supported braking (98% regenerative) enhance the driving experience, whether commuting in Berkeley or navigating San Francisco’s hills.
The minimalist cabin, with sustainable materials, large windows, and an optional panoramic glass roof, offers a serene space for Bay Area drivers. With 520–1,750 liters of cargo space and an optional electric tow hitch (2,000 kg capacity), the iX3 is ready for everything from grocery runs to coastal camping trips.

Global Rollout and Local Availability
Production begins in November 2025 at BMW’s Debrecen, Hungary plant, with U.S. deliveries starting in summer 2026. Weatherford BMW of Berkeley expects to welcome the iX3 to its showroom shortly after, with a starting price around $75,000 (£58,755 equivalent). A China-specific version and an entry-level variant will follow, with the iX3 set to arrive in India in 2026.

Should You Buy a BMW EV Now or Wait? Complete 2025 Buyer’s Guide from Weatherford BMW of Berkeley
Bottom Line: BMW EV shoppers have a critical decision to make in 2025. Federal tax credits up to $7,500 expire September 30, 2025, and California’s coveted carpool lane stickers end the same date. However, BMW’s revolutionary Neue Klasse EVs—including the all-new iX3—arrive late 2025. Here’s what Bay Area drivers need to know.
Why Buying Your BMW EV Before September 30, 2025 Makes Financial Sense
Federal EV Tax Credits Expire This Fall
The clock is ticking on substantial federal savings. Both the New Clean Vehicle Credit (up to $7,500) and Used Clean Vehicle Credit (up to $4,000) end for vehicles purchased after September 30, 2025. This represents significant savings that won’t be available for 2026 BMW EV purchases.
Key Details:
- Your BMW EV must be purchased and delivered by September 30, 2025
- Point-of-sale transfers available at Weatherford BMW for qualifying buyers
- Income limits and other restrictions apply
California Carpool Lane Access Ends
Bay Area commuters have long enjoyed solo HOV lane access with BMW EVs through California’s Clean Air Vehicle (CAV) decals. This perk disappears completely after September 30, 2025:
- Last order date: August 29, 2025
- All decals expire: September 30, 2025
- No renewals or extensions available
For Peninsula and East Bay commuters crossing bridges daily, this represents hours of time savings currently at risk.
Local Bay Area Incentives Still Available
Income-qualified buyers can stack additional savings through Clean Cars 4 All, which relaunched August 19, 2025. This BAAQMD program provides grants for scrapping older vehicles toward new EVs, creating even more value for qualifying Weatherford BMW customers.
The Case for Waiting: BMW’s Neue Klasse Revolution
Next-Generation iX3 Debuts Soon
BMW’s Neue Klasse architecture represents the biggest leap in EV technology since the original i3. The redesigned iX3, debuting at IAA in September 2025, offers:
- Faster charging speeds than current BMW EVs
- Extended range beyond today’s offerings
- Advanced software integration and user interface
- Production start: Late 2025 in Hungary
- U.S. arrival: Early 2026
Expanding Supercharger Access
BMW’s partnership with Tesla continues expanding throughout 2025, giving BMW EV owners access to the nation’s most reliable fast-charging network. While current BMW EVs can access select Supercharger locations, the full rollout benefits future buyers more significantly.
Current BMW EV Lineup at Weatherford BMW Berkeley
BMW i5: Our Most Popular Electric Sedan
The i5 remains our top-selling EV for good reason. With EPA-estimated range up to 295 miles and BMW’s signature driving dynamics, it’s perfectly suited for Bay Area commuting and weekend Napa runs.
BMW i4, i7, and iX: Premium Options Available Now
Our current EV lineup offers something for every lifestyle:
- i4: Performance-focused electric coupe
- i7: Flagship luxury sedan with cutting-edge tech
- iX: Family-friendly SUV with impressive range
Federal credit eligibility varies by model due to assembly and battery sourcing requirements. Our finance team will confirm qualification for your specific BMW.
Who Should Buy Now vs. Wait
Buy Your BMW EV Before September 30 If You:
- Want to capture federal tax credits before they expire
- Rely on HOV lane access for your commute
- Prefer immediate availability of proven BMW EVs
- Need a vehicle this year for personal or business reasons
- Qualify for additional local incentives
Consider Waiting Until 2026 If You:
- Want the latest Neue Klasse technology in the iX3
- Don’t need federal incentives to make the purchase work
- Can wait for expanded Supercharger network integration
- Prefer to be among the first with BMW’s next-generation platform
The Real-World Economics of BMW EV Ownership
Even without federal incentives, BMW EVs deliver long-term value for Bay Area drivers. Consider these ongoing savings:
Fuel Costs: PG&E’s off-peak EV rates often cost less than half of premium gasoline per mile Maintenance: No oil changes, reduced brake wear from regenerative braking, fewer moving parts Registration: Lower California registration fees for EVs under $60,000 MSRP
Our team runs personalized cost analyses including your commute, local electricity rates, and financing options.
Make Your Decision at Weatherford BMW of Berkeley
This isn’t a decision you need to make alone. Our EV specialists help you compare:
- Current inventory (i4, i5, i7, iX) vs. incoming iX3
- Federal and state incentive eligibility
- Lease vs. purchase scenarios
- Home charging installation coordination
- Trade-in valuations

Dear Weatherford BMW Electric Vehicle Drivers
At Weatherford BMW, we’re dedicated to providing you with the ultimate driving experience, and that extends to every detail of your electric vehicle – right down to the tires. You might not realize it, but the tires on your BMW EV are specially designed with a unique foam insert, and today, we want to tell you why that’s so important and why choosing Weatherford BMW for your tire replacements is the smartest decision.
The Secret Inside: Why There’s Foam in Your BMW EV Tires
BMW, always at the forefront of automotive innovation, understands the unique demands of electric vehicles. EVs offer incredible performance and a whisper-quiet ride, and standard tires can sometimes fall short in maintaining that serene cabin environment. That’s where the foam comes in.
This isn’t just any foam; it’s a precisely engineered acoustic foam liner adhered to the inner surface of your tire. Here’s why it’s there:
- Noise Reduction: Electric vehicles produce virtually no engine noise, which means road noise and tire hum become much more noticeable. The foam acts as a sound absorber, significantly reducing tire cavity resonance – the drumming noise that can be generated inside the tire as it rotates. This translates to a dramatically quieter and more comfortable ride for you and your passengers, preserving the serene atmosphere of your BMW EV.
- Enhanced Comfort: Beyond just noise, the foam can also help to absorb some of the vibrations that tires inherently create, contributing to an even smoother and more refined driving experience.
- Optimized EV Performance: While the primary benefit is acoustic, reducing unwanted noise and vibration helps maintain the premium feel expected from a BMW, complementing the quiet and smooth power delivery of your electric powertrain.
Why Genuine BMW Tire Replacement at Weatherford BMW is Crucial
When it’s time to replace your tires, it might be tempting to consider non-BMW dealerships or independent shops. However, for your electric BMW, choosing Weatherford BMW for tire replacement is not just a recommendation – it’s essential for preserving the integrity and performance of your vehicle.
Here’s why:
- Maintaining Acoustic Comfort: Only genuine BMW-approved tires with the integrated acoustic foam are designed to maintain the quiet cabin you’ve come to expect from your EV. Aftermarket tires or those without this specialized foam will compromise the noise reduction benefits, leading to a noticeable increase in road noise.
- Precision and Compatibility: BMW engineers meticulously select and test tires that are perfectly matched to your specific EV model. This includes considerations for weight distribution, torque delivery, and suspension dynamics. Using non-approved tires can negatively impact handling, braking, and overall driving characteristics.
- Specialized Equipment and Expertise: Our BMW-certified technicians at Weatherford BMW are specifically trained on the unique requirements of electric vehicles and equipped with the specialized tools necessary for precise tire mounting, balancing, and alignment. This ensures your new tires are installed correctly and perform optimally.
- Road Hazard Coverage and Warranty: When you purchase genuine BMW tires from Weatherford BMW, you often benefit from road hazard coverage and manufacturer warranties, giving you added peace of mind.
- Preserving Your BMW’s Value: Using genuine parts and maintaining your vehicle according to BMW’s specifications helps to preserve its resale value and ensures it continues to perform as intended for years to come.
Your electric BMW is a masterpiece of engineering, and its tires are an integral part of that design. Don’t compromise on comfort, performance, or safety. When it’s time for new tires, trust the experts at Weatherford BMW to provide you with the genuine, foam-equipped tires your EV deserves.
