BMW iX3 Frunk: Can I Add Aftermarket Storage? (Yes — Here's How)
Share
If you own a BMW iX3 (G08, 2020–2025), you might have noticed something surprising when you open the hood: there is a large, completely empty space where a combustion engine would normally sit.
This space — commonly called the frunk (front trunk) — is one of the best-kept secrets of electric vehicle ownership. And yes, you can absolutely add aftermarket storage to it.
What is the BMW iX3 frunk?
Unlike traditional cars, the iX3 does not need a massive engine block under the hood. The electric motor sits near the rear wheels, which means the front of the car is largely empty. BMW leaves this space unused from the factory.
The frunk on the iX3 G08 is perfect for storing:
- Charging cables — no more digging through the boot
- Reflective vests and emergency equipment
- First aid kits
- Everyday essentials you want quick access to
Can you fit aftermarket frunk storage in the BMW iX3?
Yes — and it is easier than you might think. There are now custom-fit frunk storage solutions designed specifically for the BMW iX3 G08. These are not universal organizers that sort of fit — they are precision-moulded to sit perfectly in the frunk space of your iX3.
- No permanent modifications — no drilling, no adhesives, nothing permanent
- Tool-free installation — in and out in seconds
- Does not interfere with any vehicle systems — coolant and brake fluid remain fully accessible to service technicians
- Silent during driving — no rattling or movement
- No issues at vehicle inspection — easily removed if needed
Will a frunk organizer affect my BMW iX3 warranty or fail vehicle inspection?
This is the most common concern — and the answer is no.
The electrical systems in the BMW iX3 are cooled by coolant fluid, not by airflow through the front grille. This is why electric cars do not have a traditional grille. A correctly fitted frunk organizer sits in the unused space and does not touch, block or modify any of the car's components. It is not a permanent modification and can be removed in seconds if your technician needs access.

Is this compatible with the new BMW iX3 (Neue Klasse, 2026)?
No — this storage solution is designed for the first-generation BMW iX3, model code G08, produced from 2020 to 2025. It is not compatible with the new Neue Klasse iX3 launched in 2026, which has a completely different structure.
If you own the original iX3 (2020–2025), this is the frunk solution you have been looking for.
