BMW's iX3 Orders Exceed 50,000—Electric Now Half of X3 Sales

BMW took more than 50,000 orders for the 2027 iX3, with electric models now accounting for over half of all X3 purchases. This signals that existing BMW owners are choosing EVs at higher rates, not just new customers switching from rivals. The shift reflects broader moves by established premium carmakers to electrify as they face pressure from Tesla and Chinese competitors.
