BMW Asia Unveils Three New Models at Singapore Motorshow 2025

BMW Asia has expanded its new lineup at the Singapore Motorshow 2025 with the launch of three new models.


These are the BMW 530i Signature, the all-new BMW 1 Series, and the Singapore premiere of the all-new BMW X3.

Lars Nielsen, Managing Director of BMW Group Asia, highlighted the significance of these models in the company’s portfolio. “We are excited to introduce models that represent the best of each body style: hatchback, SAV, and sedan.”

“The BMW 530i Signature expands our 5 Series lineup with a new variant, the BMW 1 Series strengthens our Cat A COE offerings, and the all-new BMW X3, BMW’s best-selling global model in 2023, brings versatility and comfort to customers looking for an elevated driving experience,” he added.

The BMW 530i Signature represents a refined addition to the popular 5 Series range. The model features a 258hp engine with 400 Nm of torque, accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.2 seconds. It is distinguished by its M Sport styling package and a premium interior fitted with open-pored fine-wood trim in Grey Blue Ash. Only 60 units of this limited-edition variant will be available. 

The BMW 1 Series, now in its fourth generation, is powered by a 122hp three-cylinder petrol engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch Steptronic transmission, the vehicle achieves a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration time of 9.8 seconds.

Designed for agility and efficiency, the model is positioned to cater to customers seeking a balance of performance and practicality.  

The BMW X3, a mainstay in the brand’s Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) portfolio, arrives in Singapore with a redesigned exterior and enhanced technological features.

The all-new X3 20 xDrive delivers a maximum output of 208hp, while the high-performance X3 M50 xDrive is equipped with a six-cylinder in-line petrol engine producing 398hp.

The latter variant benefits from BMW’s intelligent all-wheel-drive system and an eight-speed Steptronic Sport transmission, ensuring optimal handling and driving precision.

The Singapore Motorshow 2025 also marks the 40th anniversary of BMW Group Asia. Reflecting on this milestone, Nielsen stated: “This is a significant year for us, and we are celebrating our journey with our partners and customers who have contributed to BMW’s success in the region.”

He added, “Our focus remains on strengthening our presence across Southeast Asia, South Asia, and the Pan Pacific region while reinforcing our leadership in the premium automotive sector.”
