The 2022 BMW iX is a battery-electric SUV with AWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the i20 generation. The xDrive40 is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured xDrive40 version develops 326 hp and 630 Nm (465 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 6.1 seconds, which is decisively quick for everyday road use. Top speed is listed at 200 km/h (124 mph). Its power output is close to the peer average. Its acceleration is close to the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Battery, range and charging
Battery capacity is listed at 76.6 kWh. The recorded electric range is 425 km (264 miles). Listed energy or fuel consumption is 19.5 kWh/100km. Maximum DC charging power is 150 kW. Its listed range is about 7% below the peer average. Real-world range and charging speed still depend on temperature, speed, wheel choice, battery state and the conditions of the test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,953 mm (195.0 in) in length, 1,967 mm (77.4 in) in width, and 1,696 mm (66.8 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 3,000 mm (118.1 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 500 litres (17.7 cu ft), expanding to 1,750 litres (61.8 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 2,365 kg (5,214 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 2,500 kg (5,512 lb). That cargo volume is about 11% below the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
The model range
The recorded line-up consists of xDrive50 and xDrive40. Across the range, the specifications span 326 hp to 523 hp, 4.6 s to 6.1 s, and 425 km to 611 km, while listed starting prices run from $83,200. Drivetrain, battery or engine choice, wheels and market equipment can all change the final figures, so the version table should be used when choosing between them.
In perspective
Compared with nearby battery-electric SUV models from the same period, the 2022 BMW iX is strongest on towing capacity, while price and cargo capacity stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
