BMW launched its new iX model earlier, different from the iX3 of the oil to electricity, iX as a bmw based on the new pure electric platform to create a model, in many places reflect the difference with the oil to electricity model, and, whether from the performance or design, people feel that BMW in the electric era, although the action is slow, but also in the change.
On the basis of iX, BMW recently released the M version of the model, that is, the iX M60, after all, Mercedes-Benz also launched the AMG version of the pure electric model, Audi's RS is not idle, BMW's M model also has to respond. The car made its debut at this year's CES Electronics Show, with delivery dates set for June 2022.
BMW said the iX M60 is the most powerful and fastest electric vehicle BMW has produced so far, using a front and rear dual motor layout, with a maximum power of 455 kilowatts (619 hp). The car is also the first BMW model with more than 1000 Nm of torque, with a maximum torque of 1015 Nm and a maximum torque of 1100 Nm when using the ejection start mode.
In terms of performance, the maximum speed of the iX M60 is electronically limited to 250 km / h, and it takes only 3.8 seconds to break the hundred, although it cannot be said that the data can not be said to kill other models in the M family, but the speed of the electric vehicle acceleration in the front section is incomparable.
According to BMW's description, the iX M60 combines the driving pleasure of the M version of the model in chassis tuning, but fully considers the performance characteristics of the electric vehicle, and at the same time re-adjusts the stability characteristics according to the different body center of gravity of the iX M60, using front and rear air suspension and adaptive shock absorbers and exclusive rear anti-roll bars.
iX M60 uses a 111.5 kWh battery pack, it is really not small, its cruising range reached WLTP 575 km, considering the size of the battery pack, this range can not be considered particularly outstanding, the actual use can not completely eliminate the mileage anxiety, after all, as an SUV model (or BMW's own definition of SAV model), its use scenarios can not be limited to short commuting in the city.
From all aspects, the iX M60 is more like a car made by BMW passively, although its data is powerful enough, and it can even be said to be shocking, but this is like a running monster piled up, but from another point of view, in the electric era, such a car, will it still attract a group of people with special needs and habits?
