2022 BMW IX SUV REVIEW - UGLY EV OR TECH GENIUS?

EV Channels Review

The 2022 BMW iX is presented as a technological flagship, aiming for a relaxed and refined driving experience. While the reviewer praises its incredible refinement, quiet cabin, and advanced interior technology, particularly the curved display and panoramic roof, significant criticisms emerge. The exterior styling, especially the front end, is deemed controversial and "awful" by the reviewer. Practicality is also questioned, with a non-opening bonnet that offers no storage, a boot space smaller than a 5-series saloon, and a lack of a seven-seater option. Despite its advanced engineering, including a carbon fibre structure and efficient motors, the reviewer finds the overall package jarring, stating, "in isolation there is so so much to like... but I can't love it." The real-world range is not explicitly stated, but WLTP figures of up to 380 miles are mentioned.
