Motor: 150 kW (Single Motor, FWD)
The 2026 iX1 in India has transitioned to a Long Wheelbase (LWB) format, primarily featuring the eDrive20 powertrain. It uses a single permanent magnet synchronous motor delivering 201 bhp (204 PS) and 250 Nm of torque. This setup is optimized for efficiency and urban luxury rather than the high-performance AWD found in the global xDrive30.
0-100 km/h: 8.6 Seconds
The iX1 LWB focuses on a smooth, linear power delivery. It reaches 100 km/h in 8.6 seconds, which is perfectly adequate for city overtakes. For enthusiasts, it includes BMW IconicSounds Electric, which plays composed acoustic feedback through the speakers as you accelerate.
