Java Green is one of the most popular BMW Individual colors. But it’s usually a paint job we see on a BMW M sportscar. Today, the vibrant green lands on the refreshed BMW X3 xDrive30e. Courtesy of @haberkornphotography, we get to see this X3 30e Java Green from upclose, featuring also a series of M Performance upgrades. The plug-in hybrid is equipped with the M Sport Package which brings a series of visual upgrades: M Sport brakes with red calipers, M wheels, blacked out kidney grilles and air intakes, and a carbon fiber trim inside the car.

This 2022 BMW X3 30e comes as a facelifted model. So it brings a larger BMW kidney grille and slimmer accentuated front headlights with full LED technology. The rear comes with sculpted full LED taillights and a redesigned rear bumper.

The hybrid configuration in the BMW X3 30e comprises a 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder petrol engine rated at 135 kW / 184 PS (181 hp), which is also equipped with TwinPower Turbo technology. Power is sourced through an 8-speed automatic Steptronic transmission, which works in conjunction with an electric motor developing 80 kW / 109 PS (107 hp). The combined output of the hybrid X3 reaches a maximum 215 kW / 292 PS (288 hp).
The performance achieved by the new X3 xDrive30e is rather remarkable. Acceleration from standstill to 100 km/h takes just 6.1 seconds, given the extra weight of the battery and the overall vehicle mass. As well, the plug-in hybrid version of the X3 is capable of achieving a top speed of 210 km / h (130 mph). What’s interesting is that the xDrive is functioning permanently, so the AWD cruise is possible even in electric-only mode.
