All X3s now get a hybrid powertrain of some form. We won’t include the bonkers X3 M here, but the standard range is topped by the six-cylinder mild-hybrid M40i and M40d (petrol and diesel if that wasn’t immediately obvious). The lower spec four-cylinder options also get 48-volt MHEV assistance, while the X3 xDrive30e is a proper plug-in hybrid which combines a four-cylinder petrol with an electric motor and lithium-ion battery for 31 miles of all-electric running.

The 30e is not the 30i.

As above I don't think the 30i was ever sold in MHEV form here. I don't think they sold many of the 30i G01 full stop as the cost jump on PCP wasn't much to the M40i

All the G01 X3's were mild hybrids from the LCI in 2021 I believe

The X3 30i MHT was never sold in the UK.

And how is my statement incorrect ?
