BMW iX3 Electric (Parallel Imported)

Elegance and sportiness define the G01 generation X3. Add electrification, and you get the G08. This car is simply amazing. With the increasing number of chinese EVs on the market, the trend of "Stick a big tablet onto the dashboard and call it the infotainment system" increases. On the iX3, you get the ever intuitive iDrive 7 - a perfect blend of touchscreen AND physical controls. Step into the car and you're greeted with a comfortable Vernasca leather seat, a 12.3" driver's display and a leather wrapped steering wheel. The memory functions make it easy to switch driving position when different drivers are using the car. The rear doesn't compromise at all - you get a full-length panoramic sunroof, ample room to fit three though there is a transmission tunnel to put your feet around. The seats are plush and even the middle seat is one where you would willingly spend long road trips on. On the test drive, the adaptive suspension works wonders. You feel the ride firm up when you switch it into sport mode. Pop it into comfort mode and you have your very own magic carpet. The power delivery is smooth (as expected from an EV), and though this is quite a heavy car, it does in a way help with the handling and agility - do remember that this is a BMW after all, so you get your RWD drivetrain too. For families looking for space, practicality and luxury yet doesn't compromise on sporty driving dynamics, the iX3 is a great way into electrification. Oh, and the build quality is quite simply brilliant.... Read More
