    Well I've ordered the iX40 sport here in Brisbane. I had the demo car for a weekend and loved it. I'm personally a big fan of the minimalist dash and the lack of knobs / dials / buttons is a big plus for me. The infotainment system is actually superb, but it does take some time to get it tweaked and setup for your own personal use but once you've done that, the lack of buttons etc. isn't an issue. Do I love the front 'grill' ? ... probably not, but the rest of the cars looks and features easily outweigh any minor design issues.

    Love the rear and I agree, the interior is one of the best so far in an EV. Also love the technology, the fast processor in the infotainment and sharp cameras. I do not like the front at all. The front overhang seems too big and considering this is a ground-up EV platform, and the front end displaces such a large amount of space, why no front trunk?

    This was a great review as always Paul.
    The interior of this car is next level beautiful. That massive, curved screen is gorgeous. That futuristic centre console is so cool, especially with the optional wood effect and crystal controls. I know you are not really into the crystal effect, but I love them. They are very cool. Those big, fat, curvy seats look so comfortable before you even seat in them.
    However, the exterior of the iX is, erm....let's just put it this way....challenging. Some people like it. Some people don't. I strongly belong in the later group. As a current X5 xDrive45e driver, I find this car hideous. And that's me being nice. The interior alone will not be enticing me to fork out for this car. I'm afraid it's gonna be a hard pass for me. But lawd, I love that interior.
    I wish BMW would electrify the X5 and sell it as the iX5 just as they did with the X3. Rumours say there are such plans in the pipeline🤞I would definitely own an iX5 regardless of the performance compromises that come with electrifying an ICE platform that way. In my opinion, the X5 is the best looking SUV that BMW currently produces. I love visually attractive and beautiful stuff. I'm shallow that way.

      @@kkgolf5371 I've test driven the iX - twice. Once when BMW invited me for a test drive as a current BMW customer, and once when I applied for a test drive with another BMW dealer nearby. Both test drives were just for fun of course. I had already made up my mind before the test drives that I wasn't gonna buy the iX. As you rightly put it, the iX is different. And that is precisely why I don't like it. It is too different to the point of shocking. If I'm going to shell out over £100k for a car, it better be a car that I really like. £100k is a lot of money to drop on a car simply because of its interior. I don't just buy a car because it's luxurious. Looks are very important to me. If a car doesn't tick both boxes - looks and luxury - it's off my list. I'd rather wait for the EQS SUV if I'm going to be buying a luxury electric SUV. The EQS SUV is a more compelling proposition. It's both great looking and luxurious. In my book, that's a winner. In the meantime, I'll be keeping my G05 for a bit longer. BMW has been bugging me to consider the X5M Comp for a couple of months now. I'd rather have that than the iX. This is how strongly I feel against the iX.

    If you look carefully, CarPlay is full screen but Android Auto isn’t. It’s the usual size with a black space either side and a map further to the left. It’s a limitation of android. They don’t support fitting to the available resolution as Apple does.
    I wonder why only electric vehicles seem to have these camera systems and “sentry” stuff like Tesla?? All modern higher spec vehicles should now include this - obviously above a certain price point I’d expect.
    You have to understand that lane keeping/centring systems need clear lines on both sides to work properly unless they are using some other sort of fancy AI or machine learning to keep in a lane when in fact there is no lane such as at some roadworks. So of course the system will fail there.
    The seats look like Tesla seats. Rear air vents appear to be in the B pillar rather than in the doors. And I think opaque is the word you are looking for in regard to the sunroof - it goes opaque at the push of a button, although if it still lets light through, translucent is a better word.
    Is there no Frunk/Froot? I’m sure it wouldn’t have hit the car in front as surely the AEB would activate. Possibly if you were using the adaptive cruise control it would come to a complete stop.

May be EVs are not meant for it... Anyhow, Just a request if you can consider... especially when you are reviewing SUVs, Could you please stand by side and give us the height reference... I know in many reviews you do mention the height but it will be more good to see practically where car's height stand against you... and last if you can show us the front side while parking the car where there is high gutter/kerbside to check the real world ground clearance... And lastly.... thats totally upto you but if you can push the driver seat all the way back before getting into second row this will give us complete idea how much room is really there...

    The iX is NOT a competitor to the likes of the Mercedes EQC or Audi eTRON. The iX3 is more in the league of those cars. The iX is much bigger, and a different specification and price category (equivalent of an electric X5). The EQC and eTRON are smaller electric SUVs in the category below the iX.

    Was I the only one who thought he would be uploading a full video about the F-150? 🤔

    Max charge rate doesn't tell the full story. As is evident in Teslabjorns charge test the iX has a flatter charging curve than sth like the Tesla Model 3 and will as a result charge faster.

    I guess car companies stop the window glass going all the way is because of safety. Most of road safety rules and its sometimes illegal as well to have your arm out of a moving vehicle

      No I don’t think so. I think if windows don’t do all the way down it’s because missing window frame.

    Are they using runflats on this? hence the poor handling.

    170k, EV cars should be cheaper not more expensive and not outrageous at 170k

    You really did not seem up to date on this car. I am pretty sure the fast charging is much better than you state. Also not all options i.e. seat fabric choice is a choice available in Australia. Definitely a gorgeous vehicle. Love touch climate control. Enjoyed and learnt a lot more from european/british reviews. They loved it on corners and had a lot of driving in tight country lanes. Really found your review disappointing.

      I've only watched one other Australian review. My feeling is this one did not omit or gloss over the shortcomings.
