Electrification has become a trend, traditional car companies have accelerated the layout of the new energy market, BMW is no exception, at last year's Guangzhou Auto Show unveiled the flagship pure electric SUV model iX, the new car set BMW's new design, cutting-edge technology in one, will be Tesla Model X direct competition.
No matter what the price point of the pure electric model, the core part is the "three electricity system". BMW iX has three models to choose from, all equipped with front and rear dual motors, the total power is 240kW, 385kW, 455kW, the total torque is 630N·m, 765N·m, 1100N·m, and the 100 km/h acceleration is 6.1s, 4.6, 3.8s, which is better than most fuel vehicles.
The Tesla Model X has two choices of dual motor and three motor versions, the maximum power is 493kW and 750kW, and the 100 km acceleration performance is 3.9s and 2.6 s, which is better than the BMW iX, but the acceleration gap of about 1s will not be obvious in the actual experience, so there is no need to be too entangled in the 100 km acceleration performance when choosing.
However, in terms of handling, bmw iX is equipped with front double wishbone rear five-link suspension, adaptive dual-shaft air suspension, electronically controlled shock absorbers, xDrive all-wheel drive and other configurations, with BMW's unique motion control tuning, the iX may be better in terms of handling performance.
In terms of battery life, bmw iX's CLTC cruising range is 455km, 665km, M60 version of WLTP endurance of 566km, objectively speaking, it is only at a medium and high level in the industry, but with the application of heat pump system, there will be good endurance performance in winter, which may be a blessing for consumers in the north.
Looking at Tesla Model X, the dual-motor version of THEDC has a range of 560km, and the three-electric version is 536km, which is comparable to the BMW iX, but Tesla's supplementary system is relatively perfect, coupled with a longer endurance, the possibility of "mileage anxiety" is small, which is also one of the reasons for Tesla's good sales.
In terms of power and endurance, BMW iX and Tesla Model X are basically tied, each with its own advantages, while in terms of appearance and interior, the two styles have their own advantages. iX adopts BMW's new "rough design concept", the huge double kidney network is highly recognizable, with tough body lines, the value is very high.
The overall shape of the Tesla Model Y is very similar to a round and full water droplet, from the front of the car to the rear of the car, it is very straight lines, looking very technological avant-garde, and the opening of the "Eagle Wing Door" is even more full of aura, compared to the BMW iX door opening method is much more low-key and introverted.
In terms of interior, BMW, as a veteran luxury brand, has rich experience in creating a luxurious atmosphere, the iX interior is low-key and luxurious, equipped with a panoramic dimmable canopy, a flowing colored glass control, an olive leaf tanned leather interior, Bowers & Wilkins 4D diamond surround sound system and many other luxurious configurations, while the integrated floating curved screen creates a good sense of technology.
And Tesla Model X interior is biased towards simplicity, the car is equipped with a full LCD dashboard and vertical layout of the central control screen, basically can not find the physical buttons, as for the interior materials, as a 900,000-level model, soft materials, leather, etc. will naturally not be absent, in short, iX is more traditional, and Model X is more avant-garde, how to choose or depends on personal aesthetics.
BMW is one of the best-selling traditional luxury brands, iX is its masterpiece in electrification, Tesla is currently the most powerful new power car company, Model X is its flagship SUV model, if you plan to buy a million-level pure electric SUV, who are you more willing to choose?
