The Finest in Luxury EV SUV’s
Picked up my loaded iX xDrive 50 after an anxious 6 month wait when ordered in 4/22. Delivery in 11/22. What a great ride, fun to drive, crazy good range (365 actual range at a 100% charge) with 21” wheels. Such a smooth and quiet luxe cruiser, with a tiger hiding under that hood? Fast. Interior is splendid, exterior was a bit polarizing, but has become very attractive. My first EV. Charging is easy ant home, or ant a couple local fast chargers, and travel has been enjoyable as long as I could find fast chargers. Plenty of interior space, quality craftsmanship in materials, for an interior that wows. Update 09/24: This car is still the nicest car I’ve owned in 45 years. I had no issues with it, and range was as good as an EV gets. However, I recently traded it for the 2024 BMW X5 50e PHEV. This was due to limited charging available in SE USA away from home. I also did not enjoy pulling into fast charge stations only to find units not working or a wait. The 50e PHEV is a much better fit for me at this time, and I hardly use any gas in how I drive it. Excellent efficiency.

BMW iX M60 is Best BMW Ever
We have owned the 2024 for a few weeks now and it is by far the best car we have ever had. We previously drive a 2010 diesel X5 and an i3. In making the iX, BMW took some of the innovations of the i3 (like carbon fiber), which was a city car with limited range, to produce a fully capable SUV with amazing comfort, options and performance. People make fun of the looks of iX, but I think it is a beautiful and innovative design, in many ways like the i3, which some people also mocked. The car is super comfortable both in front and back. The leather is supple, beautiful and well crafted. The sunroof that you can make opaque with a button is perfect (and won’t have mechanical failure like happened to the X5). The sound system (B&W) and screens are stunning. It is easy and fun to drive and handles much smaller than it is. Range is great, even when you take advantage of the crazy acceleration. When you aren’t, Relaxation mode with massaging seats and calming visuals is better than a spa. Todd

Unexpected luxury
I’ve driven a X5 45e hybrid for 2 years. It’s been a satisfying journey waiting for a refined luxury totally electric car that has the road feel of a BMW. The iX is that car. You often hear the phase minimalist to describe the interior. That’s not my experience . It’s clean sculptured interior cloaks industry leading technology designed to enhance your driving experience. It’s a car you can’t wait to drive. The newly designed seats are a departure for BMW. Yes the traditional “seat shaped” control still exists but the touch screen allows you the adjust the seat to a higher level of comfort. But that’s not why the iX experience has but a smile on my face. It’s the g force acceleration and road handling that makes this a true ultimate driving machine. UPDATE: Leased my dream electric vehicle or at least I thought. After 2 months the car alerted me that my passive restraint system had failed and not to drive the vehicle. I drove to the dealer and after a bit of negotiation was able to get a base loaner. A MONTH later the part arrived. A week later it has not been installed. Pretty clear BMW rushed this product to market without adequate parts and trained repair specialists. Buyers be aware.

$96k AND NO MEMORY SEAT IN CONVENIENCE PACKAGE
Nobody seems to know this in any review or even at dealership when I bought my iX. Only way to get memory seat control on door is to order Premium Convenience Package. Regular Convenience package does not include it. Software may be available with driver and guest driver key but nobody seems to know how to make it work on my car so far. I have a loaner while dealer has my new iX so they can figure it out.

Impressed daily
This is our first BEV and I think we are hooked. The IX is quintessential BMW, the power sublime and the tech is first order. Warming the vehicle for one to two minutes before getting in on cold days makes it very comfy. So quiet I can actually hear the sound system. Great visibility, I love the suspension (not air) and I'm sure we haven't discovered all the features yet! I've had quite a few German cars - Audi, BMW and MB. This is definitely the future.
