Upcoming Cars in 2011 BMW X3 Preview

Looking more like a large, classy station wagon than a crossover SUV, the BMW X3 was, until Upcoming Cars in 2011, the smallest SUV you could buy in the BMW line.

The new X3 will be just a bit larger than the 2010 model in addition to the following specs that will help to further set it apart from the incoming X1:

Pricing: Pricing data is not yet available for the new X3 at the time of this writing, but hopefully BMW will see fit to bring the price down a tad from its 2010 $38,850 MSRP.
Engine: A 2.0 and 3.0-liter V4 or V6 engine is expected to power the X3 for Upcoming Cars in 2011.
Fuel Economy: Fuel range should be around 17/24 miles per gallon city and highway.
Acceleration: Zero to sixty miles per hour is accomplished in a brisk 7.2 seconds
Transmission:The X3 will probably keep its six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission options for buyers.
Car Safety Features: Standard safety features includes an automatic brake drying system for the antilock disc brakes, front-seat side airbags, active front-seat head restraints, full-length side curtain airbags, and hill descent control.

GM is accepting that the four wheel drive Hummer HX Concept with the 3.6L V6 engine is the closest environmentally friendly model so far under the Hummer Brand. HX is smaller and lighter than its siblings and it is the first Hummer to be E85-ready.

With 300 HP and 273 lb-ft torque, I guess riding Hummer HX would be fun!! Check out the high res wallpapers and PR after the jump.
