BMW iX1 Cars
The BMW iX1 is an all-electric compact SUV that promises to be the ultimate city car. The UK market is in dire need of EV options for those with shorter commutes and tighter parking situations, and the BMW iX1 might just fit the bill.
This EV model is rumoured to have a range of up to 300 miles, which should be enough for daily commuting around town. While official tests haven’t yet been carried out, drivers can expect similar range results as seen on previous BMW models. Charging capabilities include 80% charge in 35 minutes on fast chargers, while at-home charging times will vary based on your household setup.
UK roads can be tricky to navigate due to congestion and tighter street layouts, but the BMW iX1's small size allows it to slip through tight gaps with ease. It features ample ground clearance for dealing with speed bumps and potholes, whilst still providing agile handling characteristics for sharp turns and quick stops.
On top of its maneuverability features, the BMW iX1 also promises to provide drivers with impressive safety technology thanks to its comprehensive suite of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS). Features such as blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control and automated emergency braking are all expected on this model.
Additionally, interior features boast plenty of connectivity technologies such as Apple CarPlay or Android Auto allowing hands-free calling or easy access music apps when driving. Meanwhile leather seats (optional extra) add a touch of luxury when cruising through city streets in style.
With its premium features, intuitive tech interfaces, green credentials plus agility attributes within inner-city driving - the new electric crossover has solid foundations on becoming a leader in UK EV market. Overall we believe BMW could be onto another winner.
