The first picture of the second-generation BMW X3 without the annoying swirly camouflage of the prototype models (see here) has hit the interwebs. Set to go on sale in Europe after its debut at the Paris Motor Show in late September, the 2011 X3 is built around the next 3-Series architecture and will be offered with a range of four- and six-cylinder engines spanning from 2.0-litre four-pot petrol and diesel units to a 3.0-litre turbocharged straight-six petrol.
From what we've heard, BMW is planning to release a comprehensive image gallery and details of the second-generation X3 either tonight or tomorrow, so stay tuned on Carscoop for the full story.
