[News-Oxcart Network]
Recently, the oxcart network obtained relevant information from foreign media, and the news showed that BMW iX1 was stepping up road tests and spy photos were exposed. In fact, as early as April 2021, the road attempt of the relevant model was reported, but at that time there was only the appearance, and this time it was the first time we observed the interior of the iX1 up close.
Let's first look at the appearance, the front face of the BMW iX1 is expected to be equipped with the same closed double kidney grille on the iX3, and the lower grille is designed with a multi-banner horizontal strip design, and LED headlight groups are also provided on both sides. The whole car has a little blue embellishment, and the overall shape is still very in line with the design style of the pure electric era.
The side of the body is equipped with multi-spoke aluminum alloy wheels and a new hidden door handle. A small spoiler was added above the tailgate, and the taillight set was so camouflaged that we couldn't see any specific changes, but we guessed that the taillight shape of the iX3 was not much different.
From the above figure, it can be clearly seen that the iX1 is relatively smaller than the iX3. At the same time, we also speculate that the smaller footprint may greatly encroach on the volume of the battery, so the iX1's endurance may be forced to shorten. BMW has always been tight-lipped about the power configuration, and this time it also did not disclose the power related information. However, foreign media speculate that it will match the dual motor and single motor versions, and the battery capacity will also have two parameters to choose from.
Although the interior part is covered with a large piece of camouflage cloth, it can also be seen that the new car adopts the latest interior design style, which is basically the same as the new 2 Series released earlier (above), which will be more luxurious and technological. A large one-piece screen on the center console is very eye-catching, and the seat cushion part of the iX1 is still designed to be extended and adjustable. It is worth mentioning that the design of the central handrail is very different from the current model, and the overall sense is very strong, as if it is integrated into the entire control area. The part covered in front of the armrest is the control area of the iDrive.
Editor's Summary:
It is reported that the BMW iX1 may debut in the second quarter of this year, and it is not ruled out that everyone will have to wait until the end of the year. The iX3 has a range of about 500 kilometers, because the smaller body makes the battery pack smaller, the iX1's endurance should be around 450 kilometers, will you pay for it? We will continue to follow up on more iX1 information, please continue to pay attention to Chinatown.com.
