BMW ushers in the new age of electromobility with the new iX


TAKE a step into the future of electromobility with the arrival of BMW Group Malaysia’s fully-electric innovation – the iX.

The new range aims to redefine performance and style by combining pioneering design, advanced technology, and an all-encompassing commitment to sustainability, in order to become the pinnacle of the next-generation, fully-electric luxury Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV).

Better yet, the BMW iX is able to achieve exceptional range and quick standstill acceleration with its efficient BMW eDrive technology. And the latest BMW Operating System 8.0, which keeps itself up-to-date, and can be operated intuitively.

Starting at RM440,400, the BMW iX xDrive40 looks like a sweet ride.

Sustainability at the forefront

Through a 100% electric all-wheel drive system, the iX runs on zero fuel and produces zero carbon dioxide emissions.

Besides that, the brand uses sustainable materials when constructing the models, further cementing BMW AG chairman Oliver Zipse's vision: “We don’t do sustainability at BMW. We make BMW sustainable.”

Experience a guilt-free luxury driving experience as the BMW iX emits 45% fewer greenhouse gas emissions over its entire life cycle, as compared to other SAVs with a comparably powerful combustion engine.

In view of its comprehensive vision of sustainability, the iX uses exclusively renewable energy during production, on top of natural and recycled materials, such as floor mats produced 100% from ECONYL.

Maximum performance

If you have always wanted to be ahead of the trend, this pioneering model is right up your driveway.

Boasting impressive charging performance that allows you to recharge 120km of range in just 10 minutes, the BMW iX xDrive40 will help you go the distance – be it for city cruising or long-distance drives – with an exceptional electric range of 425km*.

Perks of its meticulous design include an extremely low energy consumption of not more than 23 kW/h, as well as outstanding aerodynamics with an exceptional cd of 0.25 – a value said to be unrivalled in this vehicle segment.

An additional tip is to turn on the MyMode Efficient when driving to kick its impressive efficiency up a notch.

But what if we told you that you could go from 0-100km/h in just 6.1 seconds?

The exhilarating 326hp of pure electric power comes equipped with two powerful electric motors which help propel the iX’s xDrive electric all-wheel drive system.

The instantly available torque and stepless acceleration from a standing start helps amp up the smooth driving experience, which responds precisely and spontaneously to every movement of the accelerator pedal.

Modern classic style

Achieving a show-stopping trifecta, the model boasts cutting-edge technology, such as the innovative BMW Curved Display, and an aerodynamic design with all-new lightweight architecture.

The aerodynamic design of the panels was decisive in achieving the outstanding cd value of 0.25, along with specific features, such as the window outline that tapers towards the rear, known as the streamflow.

The fully electric vehicle prides itself as a minimalist living space on wheels, offering sheer comfort

on every journey.

The interior of the futuristic exterior provides a unique place to unwind with an architecture inspired by modern interior design.

The brand included elements – such as the flat dashboard with the large BMW Curved Display and the slim seats – to resemble pieces of furniture with their high-quality choice of colours and materials.

BMW i perks

When you own an electric vehicle from the BMW i range, you can also enjoy a battery warranty of up to eight years or 160,000km, whichever comes first.
