New BMW iX M60 Features
Epic state-of-the-art innovation of BMW i, perfectly complemented by the legendary performance of BMW M, finely wrapped-up in a Sports Activity Vehicle; the BMW iX M60 is quite the stand-out package.
As BMW's flagship EV, the iX M60 trailblazes the way for luxury fully-electric vehicles with the added excitement and heritage of BMW M. A BMW i or BMW M vehicle is special in its own right, yet the iX M60 happens to be part of both highly-desirable BMW sub brands.

Engines and Performance
A BMW M car without an engine? The BMW iX M60 joins the BMW i4 M50 in a new breed of fully-electric M cars. But with a strong and rich heritage of petrol-powered M cars, can the iX M60 live up to the iconic reputation? With 611bhp, the iX M60 certainly houses typical M car power and with 811lb ft of torque, there is no denying the iX M60 has the supercar-taunting facts and figures associated with M models.
Despite the car's silent electric nature, emotional sound is pumped into the cabin via BMW M IconicSounds Electric. This has been created by legendary composer Hans Zimmer and the Creative Director Sound of the BMW Group, Renzo Vitale, which help give the iX M60 its own unique vibe.
With 0 to 62mph happening in just 3.9 seconds, this large and practical SUV or 'SAV' in BMW speak, certainly fits in with the M car family recipe.
Chassis and Handling
Considering this is a large and practical Sports Activity Vehicle, you would be forgiven in thinking that the iX M60 would not be the most agile - but this is an M car, so the uncanny ability of high performance is still apparent in large amounts.
Precise driving dynamics which have long been a trait of M cars are evident in the iX M60. This is thanks to electronic dampers and Adaptive 2-axle air suspension, along with Integral Active Steering. These all ensure the iX M60 keeps neat and tidy when it comes to handling - without sacrificing comfort.
This is especially impressive due to the iX M60's practical size and weight of 2,659kg.
Technology and Drive Modes
A fully-electric M car is quite the statement and the technology BMW have implemented to ensure performance is unmistakably M is incredibly impressive. Delve a little deeper and you will find the iX M60 has more clever technology to complement its unique electric performance.
Connectivity is state-of-the-art and features the new BMW iDrive operating concept comprising of digital services along with smart driver assistance systems, and even 5G as standard. Remote Software Upgrade means your BMW iX M60 will always be up to date, whilst Connected Package Professional includes things like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
MyModes is the iX M60's settings for driving dynamics and interior ambiance. Choose between Personal, Sport and Efficient. The interior displays, light and other elements all adapt to create a tailor-made mood when toggling these modes. Chassis, drive system and steering settings complete the different mode's characteristics too.
Charging
Total electric range for this iX M60 M car is an impressive 348 miles. Of course, with an electric car external factors and charging methods can alter this figure.
A quick recharge giving 93 miles of range can be done in just 10 minutes, whilst 80% of the car's battery can be topped up in less than 35 minutes at a public IONITY High Power Charging station.
When using an 11 kW level 2 home charger, an overnight charge (11 hours) will fill your iX M60.
