About the BMW iX1 (2024)
Independent spec and rating reference. No offers, no sales.

In practice
WLTP figure is about 440 km with the 65 kWh net battery (manufacturer figure, not measured by us). DC charging peaks around 130 kW; 10-80% takes about 30 minutes under favourable conditions (manufacturer figure, not measured by us). Owners report a noticeably lower range in winter (public forums, not measured by us). The indicative list price rose from about 51,500 euro (reference date early 2024) to 53,900 euro now; this is a starting price, not an offer and not a forecast.
Points to note
The braked towing weight of about 1,200 kg is limited for an SUV; check it for caravan use against your actual weight. The battery in an ICE architecture costs some floor space compared to a ground-up EV. Winter range is below the WLTP figure according to owners; plan charging stops on longer trips.
