Sure, here's the summary:The BMW iX M60 is built on a bespoke EV platform, about the size of an X5.
It lacks a frunk, and the hood is not supposed to be opened by the owner, but can be accessed by pulling two latches.
The model has dual electric motors.
The motors are fed by a 111.5 kWh battery pack, of which about 105 kWh is usable.
The M60 offers 610 horsepower in sport mode, and 811 lb-ft of torque when using launch control, going out through a one-speed reduction gear transmission.
The vehicle gets to 60mph in approximately 3.19 seconds, it hits a top speed of 155mph, and its EV range is 274 miles on a full charge.
The IX is not rated for towing in America.
The charging port is on the passenger's rear side and accepts up to 195 kWh DC fast charging.
BMW does port covers differently from competitors, by pushing small clips to open the port covers.
The presenter thinks that the dark graphite grey color is the best color choice for the IX. The BMW grill is present, and is covered with self-healing material.
The full laser LED headlights have an LED daytime running light and LED turn signals.
The presenter states that the interior has premium features.
This particular model has a $3,500 interior upgrade package with even softer premium leather.
The seats adjust 20 different ways via glass controls and come with a memory feature.
The presenter states that if you're under 5'5" your head might contact the headrest.
Door is opened by the door handle. It’s also got a push-button release, and has a mechanical release too.
With 34 cubic feet, the trunk cargo area is large and about the same size as an X5.
With adaptive dampers, this vehicle turns on a dime due to its rear wheel steering.
The M60 model is a worthy alternative to the X5M competition.
Having the same performance, it offers better range and has better interior space, but the extra cost should be considered.
