Based on the current iX3 Sport&#x27;s claimed range of up to 285 miles, this could mean a potential of up to 356 miles from a full charge with the first Neue Klasse SUV. Expect a charging rate potentially as high as 270kW.<\/p>\n<p>The Neue Klasse SUV will also feature BMW&#x27;s Panoramic Vision full-width windscreen projection system. BMW&#x27;s UI development boss, Oliver Pitrat, previously told Auto Express that the brand had nearly productionised the technology and that scaling it for different widths, curvatures and rake angles of screen \u2013 i.e. more upright for an SUV \u2013 is not a problem.<\/p>\n<p>Expect the Vision Neue Klasse concept&#x27;s phygital icons, such as the new interpretation of BMW&#x27;s kidney grille and lighting signature, to be carried across but applied in a different way, according to BMW&#x27;s head of design, Domagoj Dukec.<\/p>\n<p>Following the 3 Series-sized saloon and X3-sized SUV, it is likely that a coupe, an estate, a larger SUV and potentially even high-performance M variants are in the pipeline, accounting for the six models over 24 months starting from 2025.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--yRhp2pqH--\/f_auto,t_related-embed-mobile@1\/v1679578083\/autoexpress\/2023\/03\/Best%20electric%20SUVs%20-%20header%20image.jpg\">Top 10 best electric SUVs to buy 2023<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>M division head of development Dirk Hacker previously told Auto Express that his team were well under way with development of a high-performance all-electric M car, which is likely to arrive in 2027.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we&#x27;re thinking about an M high-performance electric car, you want to see the M characteristic,\u201d he said. \u201cWe know the feeling from the\u00a0M2\u00a0and\u00a0M3 CS, but also pure electric. We have also launched some ideas for that with four electric motors and a lot of functions,\u201d he added, referencing BMW&#x27;s quad-motor i4 M50 prototype.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are working on a central intelligence made by BMW and not made by the suppliers. We are working on electric motors, high voltage batteries and it&#x27;s very important also on how we can emotionalise such a car.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Get more car news, video, pictures and exclusive content on our Facebook page<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.autoexpress.co.uk\/bmw\/x3\/360858\/new-bmw-x3-sized-suv-teased-neue-klasse-platform\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A camouflaged car has been shown in a new video at the presentation of BMW\u2019s Vision Neue Klasse concept.
