BMW iX3 - DR

You will recognize it by its closed grille and blue accents: the BMW iX3 is fully electric and inherits fifth generation eDrive technology.

Concretely, the capacity of the batteries climbs to 80 kWh, against 42 kWh for the only other electric brand, the i3. Enough to allow the iX3 to travel up to 460 km (WLTP). Fast charging (up to 150 kW) allows the BMW iX3 to recover 80% of its autonomy in 34 minutes.
