Like all of the brand's current electric vehicles, the new BMW iX1 eDrive20 uses the latest fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology. A highly integrated drive unit on the front axle of the new entry-level model generates a maximum torque of 247 Nm in addition to the maximum output of 150 kW/204 hp. The compact crossover accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.6 seconds. Its top speed is electronically limited to 170 km/h.
The high-voltage battery, located in the floor to save space, has a usable energy content of 64.7 kWh. Its high energy density, together with the efficiency of the electric motor, contributes to the car's favorable fuel consumption and provides an excellent range compared to the competition.
