Okay, here is the summary of the YouTube video you requested:
The BMW iX xDrive45 is the most affordable option in the iX lineup, and will be offered in the US. The BMW iX xDrive60 replaced the iX50, having more power and range. The BMW iX M70 is the range-topping model, boasting 650 horsepower and 0 to 60 in 3.6 seconds. If you are buying the iX 45, you are joining the family at a lower price point. Air suspension greatly impacts the driving experience. The active integral steering makes maneuvering the car easier, as well as parking in the city center. The cabin is quiet, averaging 65 decibels at 55 miles per hour. The new seats offer extended thigh support and angled-up seating, preventing sliding. Laser lights are no longer available, replaced with more efficient LED headlights. Range is most important when buying this car. The iX xDrive 45 has 312 miles of range on the EPA. The iX xDrive 45 charging capacity is 175KW, which is less than the iX xDrive 60 and M70 versions. The iDrive 8.5 is a responsive and polished software experience. Compared to the former iX, there is an effort to widen the gap between Comfort and Sport modes.
The BMW iX is considered to be a ‘Seven Series’ SUV of BMW’s electrical vehicle lineup due to being very comfortable. As a recommendation, for everyday driving, using ‘Comfort Mode’ is best. The all-electric vehicle comes with massaging seats and cooling functions, adding to its comfort. New vehicles also include a highway assistant feature providing hands-free driving up to 85mph. There are newly added efficiency measures; new bushings, new rated air tires to offer better rolling resistance.
The 2026 BMW iX XDrive60 is the ‘sweet spot’. This BMW offers more power, over 362 miles of range, and a higher charging capability. If the budget allows, the BMW iX xDrive 60 is the best selection.
If money is no object, the iX M70 is the car to purchase. For a full test, the BMWs should be taken out for a few weeks so that the complete range may be recorded. Those models are an upgrade from the last generation of BMWs, are very luxurious, and well-designed. For general, everyday use, though, it is best to stick with “Comfort Mode” with this car due to these points.
Overall, it is a top-class and luxurious electric SUV from BMW.
