These Electric Vehicles Are in a League of Their Own (& Now Is the Time to Try One)

SUV fan? With theBMW iX, you get all the benefits of an electricand更多的空间。内部都是极简和我ticulously designed. And since it’s all in the details, here’s a few: The inside has an open-pore wood finish, glass controls and a freestanding curved display that extends halfway across the dashboard and appears as though it’s floating. If that wasn’t fancy enough, there are liquid crystals embedded in the Panoramic Sky Lounge LED roof for an instantaneous shading effect. Stargaze from the comfort of your seats, upholstered in a choice of sustainable materials like quilted olive-leaf tanned leather, microfiber and wool blend, and Perforated SensaTec.

Secret Agent Vibes

So the iXlookscool, but it also has something called ShyTech, i.e. invisible intelligence that can be found in little details throughout. On the exterior, we’re talking an intelligent kidney grille (housing advanced sensors, cameras and radar technology), a rear-view camera (hidden in the black ring of the BMW roundel or emblem) and more. The interior has speakers hidden behind acoustic fabric, radiant heat in the dash and door panels, visually minimized buttons and controls, and touch-sensitive surfaces in the open-pore wood.

All this and the iX has an up to 300-mile range, spacious tailgate for all your gear, dual electric motors with all-wheel drive,andit can go 0-60 mph in as quick as 3.6 seconds. Phew.

The sporty sedan has gone electric. With the latest eDrive technology—think: near-perfect weight distribution and precision handling—thei4 Gran Coupe modelshave all-electric capability, plus the classic BMW engineering you know and love. Case in point: The i4 offers an impressive range with an average estimation of up to 307 miles per charge, no frequent stops necessary. Meanwhile, the outside is the most aerodynamic BMW ever. It cuts through wind resistance with aerodynamic wheels and a highly designed rear diffuser, which prevents the car from getting lifted due to differences in air pressure and helps increase the car’s range.

All the Bells and Whistles

Wherever you’re going, you’re getting there in luxury. The full five-seater interior has a modern BMW curved display and standard sport seats with perforated SensaTec or available Vernasca Leather. It also has BMW’s latest iDrive (aka the car’s intuitive onboard technology) that includes remote software upgrades and available 5G connectivity—so you’re never not up to date. Not only are you getting an all-electric car that’s good for the future, you’re also gettingallthe most current bells and whistles.
