He’s absolutely thrilled with how good the iX3 is, despite being an electric version of the conventional X3 that has been around for a while.
The in-depth review takes us through the exterior, interior, and driving experience that we focus on most.
Thomas said the iX3 has great handling, is very agile, like a sports car, really, really amazing. It’s the funniest BMW X3 that has ever existed. The acceleration is very strong. In addition, the iX3 is also comfortable.
Brief tests show that the efficiency of iX3 is very high, possibly better than the WLTP rating (460 km – 286 miles range and energy consumption of 18.5 to 19.5 kWh / 100 km). We’ll look at these numbers in the future.
The driving experience is enhanced by a variety of features including a well-done adaptive recovery that changes the regenerative braking force based on speed and whether or not a slower vehicle is ahead.
The sound of the artificial drive unit in the cabin, which was developed in collaboration with the composer Hans Zimmer, turns out to be very nice and could appeal to many drivers.
In general, the BMW iX3 offers everything a typical BMW X3 customer would expect, but being electric it’s just a better car. The quality appears to be very high, which is also an important sign that cars made in China can be as good as if they were made at BMW’s European plant.
Overall, the first new all-electric BMW since the original i3 should be a very interesting model in the premium segment.
