How it scores for you10 scores
BMW's best luxury-EV argument — 364-mile range and a serene lounge of a cabin — as long as the styling and EV depreciation don't scare you.
Recalled about 50% more often than cars of the same model years (over-the-air software recalls count half); 2 of its 12 recalls were serious. About 30% of its owner complaints describe a crash, fire or injury. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $800 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 92% of cars we track.
35.5 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 83% of other SUVs we track.
A flat floor and long wheelbase give limo-like rear legroom for the class.
Absurdly quick and quiet with tidy body control, but a 5,700-lb EV crossover isolates more than it engages.
Curved Interior Display, OTA-first software, and up to 364 miles of range headline BMW's tech flagship.
Lounge-grade cabin, supple ride, and near-silence — comfort is the iX's core competence.
EVs have typically lost value the fastest.
No published tow rating; all- or four-wheel drive available.
