BMW IX M60 IS MY FAVORITE BMW SUV

EV Channels Review

The reviewer finds the 2024 BMW iX M60 to be a compelling, albeit unconventional, electric SUV, labeling it as potentially BMW's best product. Key strengths highlighted include its bespoke platform, offering exceptional interior space and a remarkably quiet, comfortable, and 'floaty' ride, especially praised for its dual-axle air suspension that effectively absorbs road imperfections. The M60's immense power (610 hp, 811 lb-ft torque) and rapid acceleration (0-60 in 3.2 seconds) are noted as addictive, though the reviewer suggests the iX50 offers sufficient power for most. Criticisms are minor but include awkward cup holder placement, a floating center console that sacrifices storage, and seats lacking thigh support for taller drivers. The iDrive 8.5 system, while improved, is still criticized for its lack of physical buttons. Real-world range is estimated to be around 300 miles, with a fast-charging test showing 100 miles added in 15 minutes and reaching 80% in approximately 35-36 minutes. Ultimately, the reviewer concludes the M60 is a fantastic daily driver, prioritizing luxury and comfort over traditional BMW sportiness.
