BMW iX1 - EV or Diesel? (ENG) - Test Drive and Review
The iX1 is BMW's next electric model after the i3, iX3, iX, i4 and i7. Like the iX3, i4 and i7, also the iX1 has an internal combustion-powered counterpart. The X1 is a practical compact crossover, one of BMW's European bestsellers, so it's no surprise a decision was made to base one of their EVs on it. The iX1 competes with models like the Mercedes-Benz EQA or Volvo XC40 Recharge, among others.
The BMW iX1 xDrive30 has a 64.7 kWh battery pack and a claimed range of about 430 km, depending on the trim. Energy consumption of about 17.5 kWh/100 km, towing capacity up to 1,200 kg, 313 hp and 494 Nm. That puts the iX1 somewhere between the EQA and the XC40.
