BMW Increases 2026 iX Driving Range to 364 Miles | Carscoops

      The BMW iX is equipped with a 109.1 kWh battery pack and two electric motors that produce 536 hp.

      As of 7 hours ago, the 2026 BMW iX boasts a maximum range of 364 miles when fitted with 20-inch wheels.

      With the largest wheels, the updated xDrive60 model sees its range decrease to 318 miles.

      The top variant accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds and delivers 536 hp.

      While the changes made to the facelifted 2026 BMW iX are relatively subtle, consumers in the US will appreciate the substantial increase in range for the base xDrive60 model. Will this enhanced range enhance the iX's attractiveness?

      The previous 2025 iX range, which began with the base xDrive50, provided a maximum of 309 miles (497 km) with the most efficient wheel and tire configuration. Recently, BMW announced that the successor, now named the iX xDrive60, would offer up to 340 miles (547 km) of range. However, the online configurator for the 2026 iX indicates that the xDrive60 can achieve up to 364 miles (586 km) on a single charge with the 20-inch wheels.

      If you're looking to maximize the range of your new 2026 iX, you'll want to choose the 20-inch Aero Frozen Dark Grey 1002 wheels fitted with summer tires. Opting for 21-inch wheels, regardless of whether they are summer or all-season tires, brings the range down to 341 miles (549 km). With larger 22-inch wheels, the range decreases to 327 miles (526 km), and with 23-inch wheels, the estimated range is 318 miles (512 km).

      When it comes to range and performance, the peak range of 364 miles is remarkable considering the capabilities of the xDrive60. Powered by dual electric motors, it generates 536 hp and 564 lb-ft (765 Nm) of torque, taking just 4.4 seconds to reach 60 mph (96 km/h) and achieving a top speed of 124 mph (200 km/h). A 109.1 kWh battery pack is standard for this model.

      Two additional versions of the 2026 iX have been introduced for the US market. The entry-level model, designated as the iX xDrive45, features a pair of electric motors that produce a total of 402 hp and offers up to 312 miles (502 km) of range. At the top of the iX lineup stands the M70, which delivers a powerful 650 hp and provides a quoted range of 283-303 miles (455-488 km), depending on the chosen wheel and tire configuration.
