In sophisto grey. Looks good. Pitty is not available in the i4.
By the way you can catch at least 4 m50s in the background!
After 10:00 you can see what the glass knob of iX produces. (Prism spectrum reflections at the seats) and after that a running stars screen saver while playing music and some other features of the iDrive 8.
After the 15:00 mark you can see how much the way you drive affects the range. Like tremendously! 255km to 550!!!
My friend Hans where are you?

Im happy to hear that the Idrive8 will automatically adjust your route if you need to go to a charger in order to reach your destination. and if the charger is unavaliable the idrive8 will navigate you to a alternative charger.

I think the running stars screen saver is only for cars with the B&W speakers (you may correct me if im wrong), so this feature will not be in the i4.

And that range predictor is really well implemented. What a great feature!

Oh my @Lord, this should not be a surprise. We discussed min/max range of 300 to 580 kilometers for the i4 M50. The iX is just a bit heavier and less aerodynamic. It all makes perfect sense.

Yes the range estimates looks to be very much in line with the graphs you made in the other thread.

By the way, this iX is really growing on me. Especially in this color. I do not think we should directly compare it to an X5 or X7. It’s in a league of it‘s own. Focussed on high luxury travelling. It reminds me of the Renault Espace and Avantime. Fully focused on the the best travel experience a family can have. Concorde level of traveling (pardon my French).

Yes I agree, that's the point of the car. The nice lady "explained" (sort of) that they purposely made the trunk smaller so the passengers have plenty of space like in a concorde!

I think that the iDrive 8 will continue to surprise us positively. Even after we buy the car!

and less aerodynamic.

Not by much. Cd is 0.24 for the i4 and just 0.25 for the iX.

 

[Inception]

What most people tend to omit is that the drag coefficient must be multiplied by the projected area, and that thing looks huge.

I knew that! But they advertising mainly the Cd.
