iX2 vs V60 FAQ
How long does charging take?
The iX2's 64.7 kWh battery takes about 5.9 hours for a full AC charge, and an estimated 35 minutes from 10% to 80% on a DC fast charger at its 130 kW peak.
Which one is locally assembled?
The V60 is assembled in Malaysia (CKD), while the iX2 is fully imported (CBU) from Germany. Local assembly generally helps pricing and spare-parts supply, and CKD programmes usually signal a longer-term commitment to the model here.
Which has the better warranty?
The V60 carries a 5-year manufacturer warranty against 2 years for the iX2. iX2: 8-year/160,000 km Battery Warranty.
