New Zealand Review: the BMW iX3 is serious... yet surprisingly fun!

Is it possible for a BMW iX3 to be... fun? Well, the answer might just surprise you.
The 100% electric iX3 has more than its fair share of secrets and a wealth of clever gadgetry as well. From its impressive 80 kWh battery offering 460 km per charge, to its Harman Kardon sound system (the best we've heard yet), this slice of German engineering will envelop you in leather while pushing you into your seat with its 210 kW motor - and that's just the beginning.

Just ordered this car and was browsing some video's. Yours is the best I've seen. I love your enthusiasm. Keep up the good work.

Mate you're too kind. Thank you. One thing about the iX3 is that you're going to LOVE that audio system. To this day it remains the best I've heard in a vehicle. Enjoy it! -Gav

Can the Tesla wall charger fit this bmw? Thanks

[@jaredebeling1412]

Model Y RWD or this IX3?

[@jaredebeling1412]

Does this Ix3 travel smoother than the model Y over bumps?

[@jayjo4077]

Yes, have just sold my Model Y and bought one of these. Million times better drive, suspension, handling, interior and better build

[@MrBonanist]

`i didn`t know BMW`s could be fun?` ..... What?

[@bk2mclee]

Far too expensive for an old platform to an EV style

[@samthoma2719]

How haha, this is one of the closest price differences between electric and ice

[@bodrulm1]

It is fully loaded with options - panoramic roof, adaptive dampers, electric and heated seats, Heads up Display, harmon kardon sound, acoustic glass, comfort access...the lost goes on. Spec say an Audi Q4 eTron the same and it costs more!

[@lordfluxington]

You can now get these for a base price of $81k in Australia. Which puts it under our luxury car tax threshold and makes it an extremely attractive purchase.

it is a rear drive car, the only and must reason you wont buy this suv.
