Car Buyer's Guide

Overview

The BMW iX is a five-seat executive electric SUV for buyers wanting a long-range, all-wheel-drive BMW without moving into the highest-priced end of the electric SUV market. The 2025-generation I20 LCI starts from RM425,800 in xDrive45 Sport form, with a 100.6 kWh battery, 602 km range and 402 hp.

iX in 2026 — what's new

The 2025-generation BMW iX carries into 2026 unchanged, with no 2026-specific update. The range continues with the xDrive45 Sport and xDrive60 M Sport Pro. Both are five-seat, all-wheel-drive electric SUVs with single-ratio automatic transmission. The xDrive60 M Sport Pro brings the larger 111.5 kWh battery, 701 km range and 536 hp; the xDrive45 Sport has 100.6 kWh, 602 km and 402 hp.

Which variant to buy

Most buyers should pick the RM425,800 xDrive45 Sport. Its 602 km range, 402 hp and AWD drivetrain already make it the sensible entry into the iX range. Pay RM487,800 for the xDrive60 M Sport Pro if the extra 99 km of range and 134 hp matter enough to justify the RM62,000 gap. On paper, that extra outlay is chiefly for battery capacity, range and performance, so check the equipment list before committing.
