Underneath the skin...
Underneath the skin lies the basis for a model likely to be called the V3. It’s essentially BMW’s answer to sporty people carriers such as Ford’s S-MAX, and the firm hopes it will succeed where other prestige offerings like Mercedes’ B-Class have failed. Based on platform architecture shared with the 3-Series and the X3 SUV, the V3 will provide more versatility for families than any BMW before – but with the same style and driver appeal.
