DRIVING MY BMW IX2 FROM SCOTLAND TO ENGLAND - HOW DID IT GO?

EV Channels Review

The reviewer undertakes a 300+ mile journey from Scotland to England in his BMW iX2, aiming to assess its long-distance capability and comfort as a companion. He finds the iX2 to be an excellent long-distance cruiser, praising its superb driving position, comfortable seats, and overall refinement, making it a "brilliant companion." The reviewer highlights that BMW successfully imbues its electric vehicles with the characteristic BMW driving dynamics. While acknowledging the subjective nature of its styling and a significant depreciation over six months, the core driving experience and comfort are lauded. The charging experience was generally positive, though with minor disappointments in charging speeds at one stop and the lack of cover at another, which he notes is a broader issue in the EV charging infrastructure. He concludes that electric cars are a viable and increasingly sensible alternative for long journeys, debunking common criticisms.
