BMW iX4: the electric coupe SUV with a range of over 800 km


Even in the era of electric vehicles, the X3 comes in a coupe variant as the X4, and thus the iX4. It features a more sporty design while maintaining its impressive long range.
The development of the new “Neue Klasse” series is progressing well. After the iX3, unveiled in September 2025, and the sedan i3, revealed last March, here comes the third member, the iX4, which is the coupe version of the iX3. BMW remains true to this design philosophy.
The design remains unchanged. After a front section shared with the classic silhouette, where the headlights extend to the vertical fins, there is a roof that drops sharply, a very steep windshield extending from it, and a clear break at the trunk level. A bumper is located at this spot. Compared to the previous X4, the side windows form a sharper point and the shoulders are more distinctly defined. Like on the iX3, the headlights extend to the logo but do not form a continuous strip.
Preserved Trunk
The iX4 adopts a more sporty stance, coming standard with the M Sport package, featuring 20-inch wheels and blue caliper brakes. The top-tier M60 xDrive version has specific design elements such as unique mirror covers, a diffuser, and a yellow lighting signature.
The vehicle is 4.78 meters long, the same as the iX3 (and 3 centimeters longer than the previous X4). The height is reduced by 4 centimeters, at 1.59 meters.
Inside, as expected, it features the iX3’s dashboard with a 17.9-inch central screen and BMW Panoramic Vision, which provides an display across the entire width of the windshield. A plus is that the glass roof is standard, allowing light to fill the cabin and enhancing the sense of space. BMW promises “excellent headroom” despite the new reduction in roof height.
The trunk volume is 490 liters, 30 liters less than the iX3. The seats fold in a 40/20/40 ratio, allowing for a maximum loading capacity of 1,600 liters. There is also a 58-liter frunk space.
Long range and ultra-fast charging
Two all-wheel-drive variants are available at launch. The 40 xDrive version boasts 275 kW of power, equivalent to 374 horsepower, with a maximum torque of 520 Nm. It features an 82.6 kWh battery (net capacity), delivering a WLTP combined range of 568 to 638 kilometers depending on the configuration. Thanks to the 800V architecture, it supports DC fast charging up to 300 kW.
The 50 xDrive version follows, with 345 kW (469 horsepower) and a torque of 645 Nm. Its battery capacity increases to 108.7 kWh, providing a combined range of 736 to 828 kilometers. The iX4 leverages its streamlined design to offer slightly better performance than the iX3. In the 50 xDrive version, rapid charging reaches 400 kW, allowing up to 387 kilometers of range to be added in 10 minutes under ideal conditions.
In a few months, BMW will accept orders for the M60 xDrive version, which boasts 450 kW of power, equivalent to 612 horsepower! With this engine, it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds. Thanks to the large battery, its range will reach up to 777 km.
The iX4 is equipped with a 22 kW onboard AC charger and bidirectional charging, enabling V2L and V2H functions. As for V2G, BMW does not yet offer this feature in France.
