BMW iX (2021-present) Pros and Cons

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 with a bold, divisive design, but its standout feature is the luxurious and futuristic interior. It sets a new benchmark for cabin quality with high-end materials and a large, curved display. Available in xDrive40 (up to 257-mile range), xDrive50 (up to 381-mile range), and high-performance M60 versions, it offers plenty of choice. The cabin is exceptionally roomy and comfortable, providing a genuine sense of luxury for five occupants, although a seven-seat option is not available.

All iX models deliver strong performance and sophisticated handling, blending the comfort of larger BMW SUVs with impressive dynamics. The driving experience is characterised by its serenity and refinement, thanks to the quiet electric motors and excellent ride quality. While the purchase price is high, running costs benefit from cheaper electricity and zero VED road tax, though insurance and maintenance costs are in line with other luxury SUVs. It's a hugely desirable EV, as long as you can get past the looks and the price tag.

Best for: Buyers wanting a benchmark in electric luxury, with a stunning cabin, serene ride, and the latest tech.

Not ideal for: Shoppers on a budget, those who need seven seats, or drivers who prefer more conventional styling.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the iX if: You want a supremely luxurious and refined electric SUV with a standout interior and a serene driving experience.

Consider alternatives if: You need seven seats, are on a tighter budget, or find the exterior styling too challenging.

Competitive Position: The BMW iX sets a new standard for interior quality and on-road serenity in the premium electric SUV segment. While its high price, challenging looks, and lack of a seven-seat option are notable drawbacks, its combination of luxury, technology, and sophisticated driving dynamics makes it a top choice for buyers prioritising cabin ambience and comfort over ultimate practicality.
