GALLERY

  • At just under five metres long, the BMW iX is about as big as an X5.
  • The 111.5 kWh battery gives the BMW iX an ample range of up to 630 kilometres.
  • What is striking about the interior is not only the unconventional shape of the steering wheel, but also the flat, free-standing screen.
  • There are not many switches left in the BMW iX. But there are still some in the centre console.
  • BMW has remained true to the large kidney below the bonnet in the iX.
  • The large kidney at the front is still there, but all in all the iX is rather unusual for a BMW.
