The new BMW iX3 has a 500-mile range and 400kW rapid charging, so on paper, it's got rivals like the Mercedes GLC EV, Audi Q6 e-tron and Tesla Model Y easily beaten. But does BMW's first Neue Klasse car actually deliver? The iX3 I'm driving is a 50 xDrive, meaning the 108.7kWh battery powers two electric motors for 469hp and 645Nm of torque. 00:00 BMW iX3 50 xDrive review 00:27 Rivals 00:55 Design 01:45 Alloy wheels 02:55 Interior 03:30 New screen 03:40 Head-up display? 04:30 Annoying change 05:00 Battery kWh 05:50 Build quality 06:25 Infotainment 06:40 Rear space 08:08 Boot space & frunk 08:51 The sound it makes 09:35 Driving & ride 11:15 Adaptive dampers? 11:41 Regenerative braking 12:45 Charging kW speeds 13:50 Park assist 14:12 Real-world range 14:33 Prices #bmw #ix3 #neueklasse #electric #car #ev #electriccar #carreview #carreviewer #newcar #suv #familycar

Why do all reviewers have the wheels that reduce wltp range by 60+ km 😅
Looks great
You don't have to go into the menu to disable the bings and bongs - when you press the brake pedal two icons appear on the right hand side of the main screen, one for speed warnings, one for lane keep.
BMW and similar car companies should be fined alot because of fake range infos !!this shit have 800km/500m range only if you drive it not faster then 60-70kmh on highway and with one person,no luggage,ideal weather,no uphhils ,no AC or heat on then maybe maybe you could achive this fake shit of 13,5kw per 100km consumption and claimed range even doubt again
Here’s a crazy thought. Since there’s never been a perfect vehicle, instead of telling us that each car isn’t perfect, maybe you could just wait until you find a perfect one and then announce that it is? Treat like the MVP of a sports league. We don’t typically describe every non-MVP as a non-MVP. Instead, we call the MVP the MVP. Just a thought.
Also a rival: Volvo EX60.
All those questioning the range need to know that in one test 600 miles was achieved !
There HAS to be a way to disable the voice assistant?
Great video however, you could just turn off the voice activation while you are doing the reveiw. Or, change the trigger word from BMW to something else. 😉
You should have read the manual. There is a very elegant way to get tid of speed and other alarms.
give it a year itll be half the price.
Well….NO it does not get anywhere near 500 miles…. only 380 miles in real life….. “claimed” 500 miles is bull shite. Many tests have found it very very inefficient
can‘t wait for my order to arrive, so in the meantime i am trying to watch every single english and german speaking video of the car :D first video i saw from you. Keep up the good work! Really enjoyed it! Decided to subscribe to your channel aswell :)
Wow, you’re just reviewing the product. Why all the anger from everyone? I wasn’t aware it was compulsory to buy one!
I had my test drive....WOW...deposit paid on the iX3 M-Pro. Delivery Feb/Mar 27. Absolutely magnificent..watching every YouTube video on this superb piece of EV engineering. Great video.
Great videos best colour for ix3 which hasn’t been shown before. However you used other videos with different colours to show its external moving shots from a distance. Would have liked the black colour in them shots to see how it compares as there isn’t a video yet of black.
solid state batteries is expecting...
why only 30 minutes of AC after the engine is off? deal breaker for me! I need it for 1-2 hrs so I can have my dogs with me.
21" wheel are not standard this is incorrect. 20" wheel are the standard. The 22" wheel you had on the test car are an £3,300 option extra.
You will never use all these menus ever
