About the BMW iX3
The new iX3 is BMW's first Neue Klasse model — a dedicated electric architecture rather than a converted combustion platform — and China gets a long-wheelbase version. The iX3 50L xDrive pairs a 108 kWh battery with dual motors producing 350 kW and 645 Nm, rated 919 km CLTC at 13.6 kWh per 100 km. An entry iX3 30L uses a 77 kWh LFP pack for 630 km.
