The new iX, which has undergone partial changes, is a dedicated model of electrification brand BMW i, featuring innovative electric powertrains, futuristic designs, luxurious yet relaxed interior, and BMW's unique dynamic driving performance.
The new iX has a stronger overall impression with its new design.

In addition, New iX introduced a new M Sports Package and M Sports Package Protrim, further enhancing its sporty sensibility. The front and rear bumper with a boldly expanded front air intake and rear diffuser is applied, and depending on the trim, M Sports brakes equipped with blue or red calipers are installed. In addition, the new iX M70 xDrive, a high-performance model, was differentiated by adding an M-only Kidney grill with an M logo and a horizontal bar, a black side mirror cap, and 23-inch wheels.
