The iX is a clean-sheet design that was created from the ground up. It’s BMW’s flagship for the new all-electric architecture and design for the company, and it’s loaded with some very cutting-edge technology that makes it stand out in an increasingly crowded sea of luxury electrics. The BMW IX Xdrive 50 is a talented EV that blends usable tech, decent efficiency and impressive quality with the sort of drive you’d expect of a BMW. It’s the luxury electric SUV that everyone else has to beat. The iX is one of those cars that really gets under your skin, its breadth of talents is so deep. It’s not only an enjoyable car to drive and own, but also very easy to live with, and that comes down to the clever thinking that’s evident in so many ways. The BMW iX xDrive 50 is a seriously impressive electric car. With the bigger 105.2kWh battery, this bells-and-whistles SUV now has a real-world range to match its exemplary motorway manners. The standard-fit air suspension transforms the way the iX drives, too, making it feel either plush or pointy, depending on your mood.
