BMW claims that all three versions will offer <strong>more than 300 miles of range<\/strong>, at 340 miles for the xDrive60, 312 miles for the xDrive45, and 302 miles for the M70. Each improves on the 2025 model&#8217;s best of 309 miles.<\/p>\n<p>Range improvements are due to a <strong>more-efficient battery management system<\/strong>, silicon-carbide inverters, and a new battery chemistry that affords greater energy density, BMW claims, while a standard heat pump should boost efficiency in cold weather. The iX still uses a 400-volt electrical architecture, and its maximum DC fast-charging rate of 195 kw (175 kw for xDrive45 models) is unchanged.<\/p>\n<p>Styling changes include new headlights with distinctive vertical elements, a new grille with similar vertical striations and optional illumination, and a new front fascia with a more squared-off appearance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image_wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" name=\"tccimg_100955310_m\" title=\"2025 BMW iX\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD\/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=\" alt=\"2025 BMW iX\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" data-width=\"1024\" data-height=\"683\" data-url=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/lrg\/bmw-ix_100955310_l.webp\" data-src-h=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/hug\/bmw-ix_100955310_h.webp\" data-src=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/lrg\/bmw-ix_100955310_l.webp\" data-src-l=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/lrg\/bmw-ix_100955310_l.webp\" data-src-m=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/med\/bmw-ix_100955310_m.webp\" data-src-s=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/sml\/bmw-ix_100955310_s.webp\" class=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>2025 BMW iX<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Inside, the iX retains the curved dashboard display that debuted on this model and has since been applied to most of BMW&#8217;s lineup, but it gains new functions like gaming and video streaming.
