Not long ago, we just finished the test drive of the BMW iX xDrive50 priced at 846,900 yuan, but we did not expect that IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TO EXPAND THE PRODUCT ARRAY AND ACCELERATE THE ELECTRIZATION TRANSFORMATION, BMW launched two other new models of iX so quickly, including the iX M60 and iX xDrive40, with a suggested price of 996,900 yuan and 746,900 yuan, respectively.
When i meets M
First, let's talk about the purchase discount of two new cars: a 3-year or 100,000-kilometer vehicle warranty, an 8-year or 160,000-kilometer warranty for power batteries, an 8-year or 120,000-kilometer warranty for electric motors and control units, and an 8-year free roadside assistance. In addition, from now on, consumers can also subscribe to the "Worry-free" service and enjoy 8 worry-free services in the paint repair, maintenance and car and travel scenarios.
When my colleagues test-drove the iX xDrive50 before, they felt that the power performance of the car was indeed particularly good, but when the iX met bmw's M combined into the M60 model, it was a stronger realm than the strong! The iX M60 is equipped with M's exclusive electric drive system, which has a cruising range of 566 kilometers under the WLTP standard, a maximum output of 455 kilowatts (619 hp) of dual motors in front and rear, and 3.8 seconds of zero hundred acceleration.
If the ejection start function is activated in Sport mode, the iX M60 will receive a maximum torque of 1100 Nm, the first commercially available model of the BMW brand ever to exceed 1000 Nm of torque. With a top speed of 250 km/h, the new car is by far the BMW Group's fastest pure electric production model.
The iX M60 is also equipped with a number of chassis technologies that combine driving comfort with sporty handling. For example: front double wishbone/rear five-link suspension, M exclusive tuning adaptive dual-axis air suspension and electronically controlled shock absorbers, xDrive all-wheel drive, rear axle active steering, M sports braking system, etc., can bring BMW M exclusive driving experience, flexibility and precision.
The BMW iX M60 also features personalized M design elements in appearance, including blue M high-performance brake calipers, BMW personalized Titan gold exterior components and high-gloss black Titan Gold M logo, etc., and can also be equipped with exclusive Titan gold 22-inch aerodynamic wheels to further enhance the recognition of the new car.
In addition, in addition to the 20 BMW configurations that were installed for the first time, the iX M60 is also equipped with 35 configurations such as the Bowers & Wilkins 4D Diamond Surround Sound System, the Comfort Heating Kit with Infrared Heating Technology, and the Automatic Park Assist System Pro, giving users a more comprehensive car experience.
Zero hundred and 6.1 seconds of urban travel car
The BMW iX xDrive40, which was also launched with the DNA of the iX family, is the base model of the family, and comes standard with 23 features, including a self-healing smart front grille, a dimmable panoramic canopy, a new BMW iDrive, an integrated floating curved screen, 5G, an autonomous driving assistance system Pro, and four-zone automatic air conditioning.
The innovative BMW iX xDrive40 focuses more on urban mobility, with a range of 455 km under CLTC standards, a maximum output of 240 kW (326 hp) of dual motors, 6.1 seconds of zero hundred and a minimum energy consumption of 18.0 kWh per 100 km/h. The new car is equipped with two charging interfaces, DC fast charging and home charging, DC charging can accept a maximum of 100 kilowatts of charging power, 41 minutes to charge the battery power from 10% to 80%.
It is worth mentioning that the innovative BMW iX xDrive40 has been included in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China's "Catalogue of New Energy Vehicle Models Exempted from Vehicle Purchase Tax", and can enjoy full purchase tax exemption and local new energy vehicle related support policies nationwide.
2022 coincides with the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the BMW M brand, plus 2021 is the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the i brand, and the successive launch of bmw iX M60, iX xDrive50, iX xDrive40 models is a good interpretation of BMW's ambition to enter the high-performance electric vehicle market, and also represents the good momentum of BMW i brand and electrification development.
Bmw iX xDrive40 deliveries start in January 2022, while the iX M60 is scheduled to start delivery in the middle of the year!
