In an exclusive interview, BMW designer Oliver Heilmer addresses the criticism surrounding the 2027 i3 Sedan.
The 2023 Vision Neue Klasse was a preview for the 2027 i3, and BMW's design boss is confident the production car looks better.
BMW experimented with the iX3's tall kidneys before ultimately deciding to go with a horizontal grille that blends with the headlights.
BMW tells us the new i3 Sedan is going to be assembled at the San Luis Potosí plant from 2028. Meanwhile, the iX3 SUV will be built there from next year.

BMW's product boss confirms the i3 will serve as a successor to the i4, but that might not be the whole story.
Built on the Neue Klasse platform, the new BMW i3 sedan delivers 463 hp, ultra-fast 400 kW charging, and a design that doubles as a preview of the next-generation 3 Series.
The wait is over. The BMW i3 officially returns today as an electric sedan part of the next-generation 3 Series lineup.
BMW confirms its first sedan in the modern Neue Klasse era will launch as the i3 50 xDrive with some already familiar specs.
The second Neue Klasse model is about to break cover, catering to the sedan crowd after last year's iX3 crossover.
BMW USA accidentally listed the 2027 i3 Sedan on its web shop which is hardly a surprise.
Possibly the most accurate design exercise to date, this (still unofficial) rendering strips off the camouflaged from the prototype we saw just a few days ago.
