BMW IX3 Towbars

BMW IX3 Towbars

The BMW IX3 looks and feels much sportier than its predecessor; the aerodynamic elements and blue accents bring out the electric nature of the vehicle.

The BMW IX3 allows the driver to feel freedom behind the wheel with its panoramic glass roof; when open, the sunroof provides a friendly, light-flooded atmosphere in the vehicle's interior, offering plenty of fresh air throughout the ride opening automatically with the push of a button or by using the vehicle's key.

More about The BMW IX3

The all-electric SUV is suitable for long or short journeys with an average range of up to 285 miles. The driving performance of the BMW IX3 is more dynamic, efficient and innovative than ever before. The BMW eDrive technology is installed, using a combination of the newly developed high-voltage battery and adaptive suspension; it offers an electrifying driving performance and acceleration every time you get behind the wheel.

The Adaptive suspension makes it possible for the IX3 to adjust the damper characteristics to suit any given driving conditions, therefore increasing tyre comfort and driving dynamics. The BMW IX3 offers three driving modes, Comfort, Sport and standard, each giving the driver the choice of driving style.

The BMW Live Cockpit Professional displays all the information on a 12.3 fully digital instrument with a full touch-capable control display.

The IX3 has created state-of-the-art technologies that combine emission-free mobility with supreme comfort. The intelligent driver assistance systems are operated using voice command, increasing safety during every journey.

BMW Intelligent personal assistant allows the driver to communicate with the vehicle, using natural commands to operate the functions. The assistant also explains topics about the vehicle and helps the driver explore and understand the IX3 further.

The BMW maps: Connected charging digital services use the BMW I Model efficiency range while always remaining flexible. The system helps guide the driver to find public charging stations and provides essential information in advance.

What's my Towing Capacity?

The BMW IX3 has a towing capacity of around 750KG, allowing the driver to tow a trailer or a cycle carrier. The best way to receive an accurate towing capacity for your vehicle is by checking your vin plate. This is usually located under the bonnet or on the passenger door sill. Our sales team will be happy to help if you need any further assistance.

Which Towbar is best for my BMW IX3?

The fixed flange towbar is an excellent option for those who do not wish to remove the Towbar after they have finished towing, although the chunkier design is known for causing some interference from the rear parking sensors. The fixed flange towbar is great for pairing with towing accessories such as bumper protector plates and bolt on cycle carriers. The accessories use the bolt on plate at the rear of the towbar meaning the driver is able to use the accessories at the same time as towing.

The fixed swan neck towbar has a thinner towbar neck to the fixed flange towbar and therefore is less likely to be detected by parking sensors; however, this is not guaranteed. This is a great option for those who prefer a sleeker-looking towbar but do not want to remove it after towing is completed. The fixed swan neck is compatible with all ALKO stabilisers and can be used with all cycle carriers that clamp on to the towball.

The detachable swan neck towbar is the perfect choice for those who want to protect their vehicle's aesthetic. Once towing is completed, the towbar neck can be removed, and the Towbar will appear practically invisible. The towbar neck is removed by unlocking the neck and using a twist and push action. The detachable towbar is also compatible with all ALKO stabilisers and all clamp on style cycle carriers.

Will it need a bumper cut?

When fitting any of the three towbars to IX3, there is no need to remove the bumper or modify the vehicle's bumper. However, if your IX3 isn't the standard bumper or has been customised, please speak to a member of our sales team, as additional measures could be needed to make the towbar fit.
