BMW’s smallest electric SUV proves that compact doesn’t have to mean compromise. The BMW iX1 xDrive30 delivers a potent 309hp from its twin electric motors, ensuring confident four-wheel drive capability and an impressive 0-62mph time of around 5.6 seconds. A 66.4kWh battery offers up to 270 miles of range (around 250 miles easily achievable), and DC rapid charging at 130kW adds practicality for those longer getaways. This little crossover’s blend of performance, quiet operation, and boosted traction confirms it’s a premium ride built for more than just city streets.
Behind the wheel, the iX1 charms with precise steering and poised dynamics. Thanks to its adaptive sports suspension, even with a slightly firm ride, it still feels composed and comfortable across different road surfaces. Engaging the “boost” paddle unleashes short bursts of extra power, making motorway overtakes feel quick and effortless. BMW’s futuristic Hans Zimmer–crafted drive sounds add a touch of fun, highlighting the brand’s playful approach to electrification.
Inside the cabin, you’ll find plenty of upmarket touches like twin digital screens, ambient lighting, and supportive seats. A thoughtfully designed layout ensures easy access to everyday controls, while features like an electric tailgate streamline loading and unloading. With its M Sport specification, the iX1 adopts sporty styling cues and purposefully tuned handling, elevating the SUV’s athletic character without sacrificing daily comfort.
Whether tackling urban commutes or planning weekend adventures, the iX1 xDrive30 meets those needs in a refined, compact package. It combines the performance and prestige you’d expect from BMW with enough efficiency to keep your journeys smooth and worry-free. This well-rounded EV delivers a premium motoring experience tailored for drivers who crave the best of both worlds: spirited driving and zero-emissions practicality.
