The 1000 km challenges are the best !

grill: am I a joke to you? grille: yes

Bjorn never sleeps, except in the trunk of a car once in a while 🙂

About 200 miles in the wife's ix1. It is a fantastic car. Around 3.6m/kwh with mixed use in 10c.

If we consider pure comparison with rivals, the charging speed and battery size looks a bit downside. Of course Bjorn does a benchmark and his data is very valuable, but it really depends on the personal use, which means how many times one travel 1000+ km to translate this benchmark in your real-world usage. I normally travel long distances like 800 or 900 km once a year. So it is not a big deal for me to lose half an hour more on the road because of the charge. I drove 820 km 10 days ago with ix1 in about 10 hours, Started from 57% and ended with 36% and it was almost winter drive with 6 C average temp along the road and I think about 50+km of the road was limited to 80 km/h limit. Maybe with a Model Y or EV6, I could save half an hour, but in general it is not a big change compared to ICE cars, where you can only stop 1 time to tank for 5 mins on a 1000km and go if only want to finish the journey as fast as possible. EVs no matter how they are packed with large batteries and charge speed are a different story on long journeys than ICE cars and one needs to adapt to a different driving habit. What actually I like about ix1 is its efficiency that I value much more than long journey speed. In my day to day use, it just smells the electricity and not eat it, which is really nice. It keeps the charge cost down. It is a really nice looking car inside and outside IMO. I had a small camera fix the other day that the workshop gave me an iX while my iX1 under the repair. I had iX for a day and despite its advantages to iX1, I liked iX1 better because it is overal compact package and look. Even interior design was much appealing for me on iX1. I like when Bjorn says it's poor man's BMW :), but I am looking at 76k Euros that I paid and it does not sounds poor to me. Come on, X5 start price in germany is 85k.

Keep in the left lane like a good BMW driver! Don't you dare using your turn signal!

I enjoy all 1000km challenges.

Funny he did hide the speedo but forgot he has a HeadUp Display 🤣

I’m always patiently waiting for your next video, and as always, you never disappoint to entertain. Loved the video!🙌🏻🔥

In fact the pack voltage is even lower than what the charger or calculation shows. It is at least some 5-10V higher when charging (depending on speed) as it needs to match the pack + add extra to pump through the pack internal resistance. I love that my e-208 charges full 50kW from about 20-25% up despite the 125A limit. The pack voltage is really high :)

I'd be really interested to know why it has such a low Voltage...nerving charging speed quite a lot.

It's a nice car. I will get this one now instead of waiting for juniper

I have a new IX3 and drove it over the Xmas hols from Paris to Nice and then back again and then Paris to London return. I have previously done all of this in a petrol Volvo XC60 so had a comparison of sorts. The Paris to Nice leg was ok at 12 hours compared to 10.5 in the Volvo. On both trips I had a full load and a large dog. But I also had a roof box this time which I did not on the Volvo. The return leg however was 14 hours. None of the Ionity charging units were close to their advertised maximum. Often they charged at 75 and even lower. Overall the range was really not great, it was also windy and cold, and I had to recharge every 2 hours for 30-40 mins on the return leg. Just not good enough. I have done the Paris to London with just 1 recharge at the Eurotunnel terminal (I was on my own), but this time the range was a lot less. Overall not a winning experience on these long trips when fully loaded.

5:45 Remember to ABC - Always Bring Salad. Not sure if salad spelled with "C" is a Thai/Chinese/German or Norsk specialty but most English speakers will employ a "S". However, ABC could mean Always Bring Chow😊

Hey Bjoern, you were in a good mood for this video. So funny 😅

280v 125a, nice speeds

Do you like that shit!? Yes... I like the car. This would be my choice for a first ev.

You should publish a playlist of the music you use in your 1000 km test

The low voltage suggest something like 84 battery cells in series. Could it be that there is already space in the battery box to launch a xDrive40 model with a more conventional 96s or 108s configuration?

So you can reset all vehicle data and login with your BMW-ID or delete the linkage to the key in "Mortons" profile

Deja vu? Or you do the prank with the bottle more often now? :P

that is the only BMW right now I think looks good! No giant beaver. Sad that BMW messed up the battery so badly. This would be great with 80kWh usable.

Not a great time actually. The car looks nice but this powertrain needs some improvement, at least it should match iX3 considering that it's a smaller car.

so i am getting one of these next month, and while i'm going to be happy with it everyday use (home charging with only a few hundred miles/month) and OK with charging rates at ionity, that charging rate at 50 kW chagers is really going to hurt until the UK upgrades it's charger network in the quieter bits of the country, like Wales and most of Scotland -because 50 kW is the charger you aspire to. But if you are in the charger business-would you spend money installing 200+ kW chargers in places where demand is so low today that even a 50 kW charger is viewed as a luxury (look for the A470 fork cardiff to llandudno and see what i mean). Well, i will have to travel to france instead

Nice car, compared to IX3 wondering why you would ever by that IX3 after this.

I always love my calad with some dressing

super cool as usual…however why have you not used the „charge optimized route planning option“ that removes „calculating „ how far you get when and calculates the fastest way incl charging from a to b?

kempower needs to come to the usa

You mentioned the Ioniq 5 as compareson. I believe it was a 73kwh version. will you be doing 1000km in the new 77kwh version ?

Wondering what this will cost in Thailand. Guess around 3m

Only Dacia Spirng has lower battery voltage, well done BMW.

Well, 35kw is faster than L2 - barely.

What’s the track you used Bjorn ? That’s a great tune, the can’t get enough of you tune 😊

Missing Model Y Rwd Time 1000km

23:30 - e-Golf charging speed for the win 😂

I like how you hide the speedometer with passport but the HUD rat you out

Dropped prices on Tesla here in the US again. Even my cheap butt is considering finally buying an ev.

Nice video. Just out of curiosity, you seem to be driving mostly on the left side of the road even when it is empty. Is there a reason for that ? Keep on the good work.

Hmm, could the battery or a module be broken? Bjørn has had a tradition for attracting faulty press cars from BMW (and others)...

The Model Y is not a competitor for the iX1. The Model Y is in a higher category, with more space, size and better performance. Of course, the iX1 is an expensive car, reaching the price of the Model Y, but that's the case with premium German cars, they are always more expensive than competitors.

The reference you make on the ix3 is based on data that is outdated. Maybe you should try the facelift ix3 that doesn’t coldgate as a new reference?

Expensive, small battery, poor 1000km challenge result, not super roomy, not superb quality... But it has a massive grill! I think ix3 is actually better value.

สัมภาษ คนท้องถิ่น บ้าง รยที่เขาใช้รุ่นที่ทดสอบ ข้อดีข้อเสีย จากการใช้งาน จะได้มีข้อมูลหลากหลาย

You are always talking about left lane huggers, but in this video, you are the left lane hugger^^

i am happy that enyaq won with this wrong copy of skoda, by the way i like bmw

At those low SOCs, shouldn t we get 180kw charging, not just 110 or 130?

That pack voltage is really low.

Software seems snappy - sss

Why such low voltage? I think that's the lowest I have seen. Great stuff🙏👊

damn that consumption is high

What convention in Visalia?

We will happily take those 50kw chargers in India.. 70% of the cars sold are less than 40kwh batteries.

Do BMW iX1 come with special EV tyres ? Or are they same as for an fossil car? And how are the adaptive LED lights ?? Another Swedish YT vlogger had huge issues with the headlights.

I much prefer a smaller grille like on an E30. These new plastic beemers are cringe..

Wgy do you drive at second lane when you are not overtaking anyone?

The greatest mystery is who is Morten?

User interface on my 5 years tesla is still years ahead...... and that grill, damn it sucks so hard. But at least it AWD.

Without Coldgating this should be faster, shouldn't it? So both the ix3 and ix1 have quite a handicap compared to the cars you compared it with now. ID4, Ioniq 5, etc I don't like BMWs, but doesn't seem fair :D I'd be interested, how much of a difference it would make in those cases.

700,000 NKR for that? Anything from Tesla short of a S or X is cheaper, including FSD. Crazy.

Who will buy this car compared to a Tesla model Y??? Considering price, performance, range, charging… I don’t really understand… please BMW explain me your plans

I wonder who this IX1 is for. 77kwh MEB cars,74kwh EGMP cars and model Y LR all have significantly more range and better charging, while costing about the same. I guess its better than Lexus at least 🤣

❤❤❤

It certainly has a long hood/bonnet. And a giant set of nostrils? *A* single bugsplat?! We have drastically reduced flying insects ...

As an bmw driver I have to admit, it’s still no Tesla 😢

Definitely going to shortlist iX1 on my first EV list.

I know it is a cheap car..? By the way, its not ok to drive in the right lane... all the time....

The new XC40 has a larger battery, circa 82kw and charges up to 200kw. IMO this is what BMW should have been aiming for

Does the car have iDrive 9 now?

It only a baby beaver with small front tooths😅

BMW cost $82,900 in the US and it competes directly with a Model Y which is now as low as $47,000 USD before $7500 federal credit. Who is going to buy the BMW??

2.34 miles/kWh. Let me guess, they'll just add a bigger battery and convince the media to brag about "big battery for long trips".

I know looks are subjective but damn I find the big huge grilles on BMW now fugly

Wait a minute is the iX1 really 700k... wtf man

Poor man bmw 😂😂😂

1:40 you are kidding right?

ABC = Always Bring Cushion 😴

this car has a iphone notch haha

kw-hr/hr = kw

range too small

ABC, always big grill :-) looks bad, as usual

Must Read review: pinkywheels.com/2024-bmw-ix1

small battery and low voltage paired with poor aerodynamics, then charge often or drive slowly. large radiator grill Immitation for bad aerodynamics Bmw, design before function nogo.26.5kwh at such low speeds...German Tiger tank design.

How much uglyer can BMW make these cars.......

Insanely overpriced compared to Tesla ModelY.

BMW 🤮🤮🤮

❤❤❤
