BMW IX M60 REVIEW - THE ULTIMATE ELECTRIC SUV IN THE MARKET?

EV Channels Review

The BMW iX M60 is presented as the ultimate electric performance SUV, boasting significant power upgrades over the standard iX. The review highlights its impressive acceleration, with a 0-100 km/h time of 3.8 seconds, and a top speed of 250 km/h. The M60 features standard air suspension and rear-axle steering, contributing to its sporty handling despite its size and weight. While the exterior design is largely similar to other iX models, the M60 distinguishes itself with unique Titan Bronze accents and larger wheels. Inside, the cabin offers a luxurious, animal-free interior with comfortable Sensatec seats. However, the review notes some drawbacks, including the infotainment system (iDrive 8) being more complex than its predecessor (iDrive 7), and the crystalline interior applications causing glare in sunlight. The reviewer also points out the steering wheel's unconventional shape, though Brian finds it effective. Real-world range is estimated around 400 km in winter and 550 km in summer, with a test consumption of 21 kWh/100 km. Despite software criticisms, the vehicle's hardware and engineering prowess are highly praised, positioning it as a top-tier luxury performance SUV for those prioritizing performance over price.
