The BMW The New iX is BMW Pakistan's latest version of its large all-electric luxury Sports Activity Vehicle. It is designed around a dedicated electric platform rather than adapting a conventional petrol SUV, which allows a long wheelbase, flat cabin floor and generous passenger space. The refreshed exterior retains the iX's clean, monolithic shape while adding slim vertical daytime running lights and a revised illuminated kidney grille. For buyers in Pakistan, it offers a distinctive alternative to a large petrol luxury SUV, particularly for owners who can arrange dependable charging at home or work.
BMW Pakistan lists two powerful all-wheel-drive variants. The iX xDrive60 produces 400 kW, equivalent to 544 PS, and 765 Nm, with a quoted 0–100 km/h time of 4.6 seconds and a WLTP range of 563 to 701 km. The iX M70 increases output to 485 kW or 659 PS and 1,015 Nm, reaching 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds with a quoted WLTP range of 521 to 600 km. These are official laboratory figures; actual driving range will depend on temperature, motorway speed, traffic, tyre choice, load and air-conditioning use.
The electric drivetrain delivers immediate, smooth acceleration without gear changes or engine vibration. BMW xDrive manages torque between the front and rear electric motors, providing confident traction in rain and on changing road surfaces. The battery sits low in the vehicle, helping stability despite the iX's substantial size and weight. Depending on specification, adaptive suspension and rear-wheel steering can improve ride comfort and make the vehicle easier to manoeuvre in tight spaces.
The interior is one of the iX's strongest features. Its minimalist dashboard uses the BMW Curved Display, while the reduced number of visible switches supports BMW's Shy Tech design approach. Navigation, charging information, entertainment and vehicle settings are integrated into the iDrive system, and the BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant supports voice control. A spacious rear cabin, wide-opening doors and a flat floor make the iX comfortable for five adults, while premium upholstery, ambient lighting and the available panoramic glass roof create a relaxing environment.
Practicality is suitable for family and executive use. Official BMW information lists a 500-litre luggage compartment, expanding to around 1,750 litres with the rear seats folded. The large tailgate is useful for airport luggage and longer trips, although the high floor and wide body should be considered in tight parking areas. Parking cameras, radar-based assistance and available automated parking technology are particularly valuable in congested Pakistani cities.
Charging preparation is essential. A dedicated wallbox provides the most convenient overnight charging, while compatible public DC chargers can reduce charging time on longer journeys. Pakistan's public charging network is improving but remains less consistent than in mature EV markets, so buyers should assess the chargers available on their regular routes. Charging speed can also depend on battery temperature, charger output and the starting charge level.
EV ownership removes routine engine-oil and exhaust-system maintenance, but it does not eliminate costs. Large tyres, suspension components, insurance, body repairs and specialist electronics remain expensive, and genuine imported parts can require lead time. Dewan Motors provides authorised BMW support in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad, making service location an important consideration for owners elsewhere. Battery and vehicle warranty terms should be confirmed in writing for the exact Pakistan-delivered unit.
Overall, the BMW The New iX suits a buyer seeking a refined, very powerful and spacious electric SUV with long official range and advanced technology. The xDrive60 is the more range-focused choice, while the M70 prioritises maximum performance. Before ordering, Pakistani buyers should confirm the complete build sheet, charging cable and wallbox arrangements, wheel size, driver-assistance equipment, battery warranty, paint availability and delivery schedule because individual imported vehicles can differ.
