HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 авг 2022
- The 2023 BMW iX M60 is BMW's first fully electric mid-sized SUV. In this video we conduct a long distance range test, a 0-60 test and get deep into the details of this luxury EV that's pointing the way to Munich's electric future. Find out what I really think of BMW's foray into a luxury SUV without an engine.
This vehicle has an MSRP with destination fee of $109,770

Wow! There's an extra level of production quality in this video. Really upped your already excellent game, especially the snazzy editing choices. Well done review!
I don't get the complaints about the size of the grill. There are a ton of cars with large grills since the beginning of automobiles. Lexus are larger grilled and nobody has a problem with it.
The kidneys look hideous
I think Lexus does big grills better, but I give BMW props for sticking with their design choices. I'm getting used to seeing their grills now.
@@nastystew6942i don't think so at all. Infact I think it looks much better than the front of a model 3 or model Y which are truly ugly
i will say this thing doesn’t look great in pictures weirdly i was in nyc and happened to walk pass one and my god was this thing beautiful! looks WAY better in person, pictured and videos don’t really do it no justice
Your video is super professional and excellent quality. Clear, concise and professional. Good judgement on the car, too!
Glad you liked it!
Love mine xDrive 50 fully optioned in Storm Bay metallic, B&W sound system is phenomenal 😊 Great video !
Great review.
I like the music in the video
Nice review Captain Kirk!! Thanks
My pick would be the ix 50. It is the sweet spot for most of the people.
Very good review.
Glad you enjoyed it
In the beginning on video/photo’s the car was not my design, but after seeing one completely blacked out and after a test drive, I traded my Model X 2020 Performance for an iX50 … Best decision ever …
This is far nicer than a Model X
iX is on another level...
Nice review. Hills and speed are the EV's worst nightmare. My friend's Model 3PP can't even make it 240mi when he drives 90mph, add in a couple Idaho mountain passes.
Just add timing gear, and your test would be complete.
Keep in mind that as car's battery gets older, range will be less. So always shoot for the higest range car you can afford.
Hmmm. One of the best, no, THE best road text for the this gorgeous piece of machinery. I’m for the rest.
Super fast and lots of room. Great vehicle
It's my favorite SUV so far.
It’s actually beautiful looking for an electric car. but I really hope we still have some type of combustion engine that’s eco friendly for sports cars, supercars and, hypercars.
We're going to see a lot more hybrids during this transition period. I just bought a gas car, but this is a great EV.
@@revmatchtv definitely! Bmw does everything right! I just want to be able to drive my 15’ mustang gt after the ev switch!
No we won't
Me gusta bmw
lol my iX is back in the shop for the 2nd time this month for a faulty coolant pump...they need to ship that part from Germany to Canada takes 3 to 4 weeks .... got a crap x3 2018 as a loaner...luckily i am going to europe for 2 weeks can kind of cut down the wait period for this fix
What do you mean by "Brand new"? It's been around for 2 years now
The iX M60 had its US market launch in June 2022.
The iX started US sales in Q1 2022.
Good review. My Model X LR Plus always just manage around 150 miles, when it is rated for 350+ miles, even in summer for around 75mph. This thing can do complete 300+ miles in cold fall. I love this car. Also way quieter than Model X.
🤢
Ah yeah, all the styling of a 90's mini-van with a massive, heavy battery. One day BMW will get this EV thing right.
I think this will sell like hotcakes
@@revmatchtv I agree, doesn't mean it's a great ev though. Getting closer w each try though!
@@johngannon It's the best EV I've driven. It's a fantastic SUV for its intended audience. I hope I explained it well in the video.
@@revmatchtv Interesting considering how heavy and inneffecient it is. Creature comforts seem nice but the EV portion is still lacking IMO.
Sorry but I hate that big grill and electricity belong in the home not in cars. Thanks
The grill is a love or leave it proposition. Looks better in person than photos.
Dear god, one of the ugliest cars in automotive history. Nuke it from orbit to be sure.
Don't think so at all, compare to a Tesla which is truly ugly
288 miles is high? Lol you must have not seen 99% of EV vehicles having that range as well these days...oh and they're half the costs with the same tech or better (Ioniq 5 etc)
At 2x the price, this is aimed at a different buyer who’s looking for luxury and features beyond what’s available at that lower price point.
@@revmatchtv like stated in prior commmet. All tech in the iX is the same in EV6 by Kia. Kia actually has better hands free driving as well. Please be detailed on what you mean is better in your opinion
@@JohnnyKReviews He's testing the least efficient version of the iX, wasn't on a loop course, and didn't drive at a consistent highway speed. He even launched it and had some fun on the twisties. We don't know the outside temperature or his HVAC settings. Out of Spec's constant 70 mph test managed 339 miles of range with this same spec of iX m60, but their test of the AWD Wind EV6 (274 mile EPA) got 254 miles of range, albeit at a cooler outdoor temperature. Tom from IEVs tested the GT line and got 245 miles of range at a warmer outdoor temperature than Out of Spec, but his test of the base iX 50 returned 345 miles of range.
See a difference yet?
The EV6 does have faster peak charging... when it can actually hit it. The problem is the EV6's charging curve has shown to be all over the place during tests, and it doesn't always get the max charging rate as some testers have noticed. AFAIK, the EV6 / Ioniq 5 haven't gotten the charger preconditioning software update yet, but it should help... I guess we'll see.
The same price to features argument has been made all through time when comparing low/mid tier vehicles to luxury vehicles. The fact is, you can't do a 1-to-1 cost / value comparison. The iX is significantly larger than the EV6 (11" longer, 3" wider, and 6" taller), and it's definitely made to a higher quality and higher luxury level. Differences? How about the nicer adaptive air suspension and more compliant ride, lower road noise, 4 wheel steering, laser lights, high quality seat material and interior trim, the B&W sound system, soft close doors, radiant heating, and higher tow weight. The iX has lower volume production (more expensive to produce) from a higher end brand (BMW vs Kia) which adds a level of exclusivity that often comes at a high price premium.
I will give it to Kia/Hyundai for implementing V2L though.
Sure, you can always buy a cheaper car with similar features, and sure, the upcharge on luxury vehicles is pretty obscene most of the time... but to a point, you do still get what you pay for, and wealthy people often are willing to pay a premium. Otherwise no one would buy luxury vehicles.
What are you basing the EV6 having better hands free driving on...? The BMW system has tested well. The EV6 is essentially Kia's mass market EV. In a battle of odd looking vehicles, I would say that the BMW is the more attractive of the two, and has the look and sleekness of an expensive luxury vehicle.
I'd personally opt for the xDrive50 trim with better range / efficiency, and at a sizeable discount to the m60.
@@JohnnyKReviews iX has higher level of customization than EV6. Also iX uses high ends materials (crystal control buttons, olive leave based skin on dashbord, Kashmir seat) The iX "long range" has longer range than any EV6 models. The ride quality on the iX is on another level compared to EV6.
Like mentioned two different type of cars.
That car looks very ugly just like the bmw I8 in my opinion 🤔
Oh yeah - I knew it would be polarizing the moment I laid eyes on it. I don't mind it, but I'm not in love with it. The interior is flat out amazing though.
Your opinion sucks
Hideous car
"The kindest word in all the world is the unkind word, unsaid."
I guess you like a Tesla model? 🤢
I like the performance of the iX but this thing is just way TOO UGLY. Don't even get me started on the steering wheel. I Want my next lease to be a fast electric vehicle but I'm going with the Hummer. It fits my personality and the asthetics are way better. Also, the non-opening moonroof is a fat FAIL.
These 2 have a pretty different mission. The looks are a love it or leave it affair for a lot of people.
To call this ugly and even mention the hummer is quite funny 😆
to each his own, this design is more luxury and soft ride, whereas the Hummer is on the other side of the spectrum with off road capabilities.. the steering wheel has a design similar to the c8 corvette, I actually like it because it doesnt block the instrument cluster as much as a round steering wheel would..
