From InsideEVs.
The new iX3 enters one of the contentious segments in the EV world: premium midsize SUVs, where being merely good gets you forgotten. The Audi Q6 E-Tron is deeply competent, the Porsche Macan Electric is properly sorted, the Mercedes-Benz GLC EV is very convincing, and the Tesla Model Y still lords over the class with its annoying blend of usefulness, software, and value. On paper, the iX3 arrives loaded for bear.
It rides on a new bespoke EV platform, promises standout range and efficiency, and it finally feels like an EV conceived from the ground up to be electric. The iX3 is also truly excellent to drive, impressively efficient in real-world use, and much easier to like inside than its odd screen setup initially suggests. It has a few typical BMW quirks, but it is the first Neue Klasse model, soon followed by a second, and it seems worth the wait.
