One of the most impressive highlights of the new BMW iX is its extended range, now reaching up to 701 kilometres (435 miles) on the WLTP cycle. This makes it one of the longest-range electric vehicles in its class. The combination of cutting-edge BMW eDrive technology and enhanced aerodynamic efficiency contributes to a driving experience that is both exhilarating and environmentally conscious.
The iX benefits from refined performance electronics, optimised wheel bearings, and upgraded tyres, leading to an improvement in energy efficiency. This has resulted in an impressive 8% reduction in energy consumption, further extending the vehicle’s range. For example, the BMW iX xDrive60 now delivers approximately 60 kilometres (37 miles) more range than its predecessor, ensuring longer journeys with fewer charging stops.
The new BMW iX isn’t just about sustainability—it’s about power, precision, and a driving experience that feels effortlessly dynamic. With dual electric motors and BMW’s intelligent all-wheel drive system, the iX delivers impressive acceleration and handling, making every journey both efficient and exhilarating.
The BMW iX xDrive45 now generates 300 kW (408 hp), ensuring a smooth yet powerful drive, while the iX xDrive60 pushes performance even further with 400 kW (544 hp). For those who crave the ultimate thrill, the range-topping BMW iX M70 xDrive takes electric performance to new heights with a staggering 485 kW (659 hp) and up to 1,100 Nm of torque. This powerhouse accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 3.8 seconds, offering a level of responsiveness that redefines what’s possible in an electric SAV.
Beyond sheer power, the iX benefits from cutting-edge engineering that enhances efficiency and control. The updated power electronics, fine-tuned wheel bearings, and optimised aerodynamics ensure that the vehicle delivers not only exhilarating speed but also improved range and energy efficiency. Whether cruising through city streets or tackling long highway stretches, the iX provides an electrified driving experience that is both thrilling and refined.
Starting in Spring 2025, the BMW iX will be available in three distinct variants, ensuring there is a perfect option for every type of driver—whether you prioritise efficiency, range, or exhilarating performance.
Designed for those who seek an optimal balance between range, efficiency, and everyday usability, the xDrive45 offers a refined electric driving experience. With intelligent all-wheel drive (AWD) and an aerodynamically optimised design, this model delivers smooth acceleration, confident handling, and an impressive range that suits both city commutes and long-distance travel.
For drivers who demand greater power and longer journeys, the xDrive60 steps up with an increased battery capacity and an optimised powertrain. This variant provides a higher power output for seamless acceleration and dynamic responsiveness, making highway cruising and spirited driving more engaging. Advanced regenerative braking and intelligent energy management contribute to an extended range, ensuring fewer stops and more miles on a single charge.
As the most powerful model in the lineup, the M70 xDrive delivers a thrilling, high-performance experience inspired by BMW’s legendary M division. Boasting exceptional acceleration, sport-tuned suspension, and precise handling, this model is built for drivers who crave excitement behind the wheel. The M70 also features distinctive M styling elements, setting it apart visually while emphasising its commanding presence on the road.
Each BMW iX variant upholds BMW’s commitment to sustainability, utilising recycled materials, renewable energy in production, and advanced battery technology to reduce environmental impact. All three models achieve a top-tier CO2 class rating of A, reinforcing BMW’s vision for a more sustainable future without compromising performance or luxury.
