Pros	Cons
Breathtaking cabin with a superb standard of finish	Awkward looks aren't to all tastes
Serene, quick, and quiet to drive	Not available with seven seats
Long range of the xDrive50	Very expensive to buy

Quick Summary

The BMW iX is a large, premium all-electric SUV that competes with the Audi e-tron and Tesla Model X. Available with two main battery options, the 71kWh xDrive40 delivers up to 257 miles of WLTP range, whilst the 105kWh xDrive50 offers up to 381 miles. The high-performance M60 variant, arriving in 2022, provides up to 352 miles of range with 610bhp. The iX represents a bold new design direction for BMW's electric vehicles, featuring a distinctive and divisive grille that looks more interesting in darker colours.

Inside, the iX excels with exceptional quality and luxury throughout. The flat floor, electrically adjustable seats with integrated headrests, and spacious rear accommodation make it supremely comfortable for five occupants. The 500-litre boot expands to 1,750 litres with the rear seats folded. Driving dynamics are sophisticated, blending the X7's refinement with the X5's handling prowess. All models feature dual electric motors with active all-wheel drive, delivering impressive performance from 322bhp in the xDrive40 to 610bhp in the M60. Running costs are economical at around 7p per mile, with VED road tax free for all pure electric vehicles.

Best for: Buyers seeking a classy, full-sized luxury electric SUV with exceptional interior quality, refinement, and long-range capability, particularly those prioritising comfort and serenity over practicality.

Not ideal for: Those requiring seven seats, buyers sensitive to distinctive styling, or those seeking the most practical or fun-to-drive premium electric SUV.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the iX if: You're seeking a classy, full-sized luxury electric SUV with exceptional interior quality, refinement, and long-range capability, particularly if comfort and serenity are your priorities.

Consider alternatives if: You require seven seats, are sensitive to distinctive styling, or seek the most practical or fun-to-drive premium electric SUV.

Competitive Position: The BMW iX stands out as the most luxurious option in the premium electric SUV segment, with unmatched interior quality and refinement that rivals even traditional luxury brands. Whilst the Tesla Model X offers superior practicality with seven-seat options and larger boot space, and the Mercedes-Benz EQC provides better value, the iX's serene driving experience, sophisticated handling, and breathtaking cabin make it the finest choice for those prioritising comfort and prestige. The Audi e-tron, meanwhile, offers a more conventional approach but lacks the iX's cutting-edge design and interior ambience.
