CHEAPER HERE THAN OTHER COUNTRIES... (BMW IX2 XDRIVE30 2024 REVIEW)

EV Channels Review

The 2024 BMW iX2 xDrive30 is reviewed as a stylish and refined electric coupe SUV, offering a premium interior with BMW's latest iDrive 9 system. While it boasts good handling and a comfortable ride, particularly in 'Personal' mode, the reviewer notes that the sportier settings can make the ride firmer on bumpy roads. Rear headroom is a concern for taller passengers due to the sloping roofline, and boot space, while adequate at 525L, has a high load lip. The reviewer highlights the dual-motor AWD system's performance, with a claimed range of up to 449 km (WLTP), though real-world efficiency is yet to be formally tested but initial figures suggest 19-21 kWh/100km. The steering is described as light and direct, and the active safety systems are well-calibrated. The reviewer anticipates the single-motor, front-wheel-drive variant will offer better range and a lower price point, making it a potential alternative for those prioritizing efficiency.
