What is the real range of the BMW iX3?
2 Answers
BMW iX3 is equipped with a 74kWh ternary lithium battery pack from CATL. The NEDC range for the high and low configuration models is 500km and 490km respectively, which is completely sufficient for daily use. Moreover, this performance significantly surpasses that of the Mercedes-Benz EQC. Below is some information about the BMW brand: 1. Introduction: BMW was founded in 1916 by Gustav Otto, with its headquarters located in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. 2. Development History: The predecessor of BMW was an aircraft factory named BFW. After the company's reorganization in 1917, it was officially renamed BMW, which stands for Bayerische Motoren Werke AG. 3. Logo: The BMW logo features a blue and white pattern, representing the state emblem of Bavaria, symbolizing BMW's pure Bavarian heritage.
I've been driving the BMW iX3 for over half a year now, and the real-world range averages around 320 kilometers under normal driving conditions, which is sufficient for daily commuting. When using the heater in winter, the range may drop to about 280 kilometers due to reduced battery efficiency in cold weather. In summer, using the air conditioning has a smaller impact, maintaining a range of around 340 kilometers. My daily driving habit is gentle acceleration and frequent use of the energy recovery mode, which can add dozens of kilometers to the range. In city driving with frequent traffic lights, the range remains stable. On highways, driving above 120 km/h increases wind resistance, reducing the range to below 300 kilometers. Charging is convenient—overnight at home with a slow charger, or a quick 30-minute top-up with fast charging when out. Overall, range isn't a major issue, but planning needs to be adjusted according to the season and driving style. As an owner, I find BMW's battery management system reliable, and I've had little range anxiety since purchasing.
