BMW iX (2021-2025)
BMW iX xDrive40
The biggest caveat with the BMW iX xDrive40: its price places it at the premium end of the SUV class. It also costs more to charge than most EVs, around 2.5p a mile even off-peak.
By eight years on the road it should still hold about 84% of its battery health, roughly 261 km of real-world range, which is a useful yardstick if you’re buying used. What owners say: Owners value the spacious cabin, comfort and refinement, particularly with air suspension. The main complaint is the xDrive40’s smaller battery: owners report about 170 to 230 miles in real driving, with less in winter.

What Owners Say
BalancedOwners Love
- Owners value the spacious cabin, comfort and refinement, particularly with air suspension.
- Long-term owners report few problems and minimal battery wear, including one reporting 3% after two and a half years.
- The xDrive50 reportedly matches or exceeds its official range in summer, with fast, dependable rapid charging.
Watch Out For
- The main complaint is the xDrive40’s smaller battery: owners report about 170 to 230 miles in real driving, with less in winter.
- Several owners report refused iX insurance renewals or quotes with substantially higher premiums.
- Owners report rapid tyre wear on some examples, alongside a large turning circle without rear-wheel steering.
Owner Tips
- For long-distance driving, choose an xDrive50: its range is far greater than the xDrive40’s.
- Before buying, obtain insurance quotes, including from specialist brokers.
- Inspect the tyres and check whether air suspension and rear-wheel steering are fitted.
