. In our rapid charging test, the iX1 maintained at least 120kW to 40% before gradually dropping off. That’s not terrible, but it can’t make up for the short range.
You see, every iX1 gets adaptive dampers, but the suspension setting is bound to the driving mode. So if you want weightier steering or looser stability control, you’re forced to accept the stiff damper setting, which makes the car disconcertingly bouncy over bumps. The interior is the same as in the X1, so it’s mostly a lovely place to be, if quite spec-dependent. For instance, the 'Sensatec' leatherette seats and gloss black plastic trim of this iX1 test car conjured a far less convincing air of luxury than the real leather and aluminium trim of our
A £60k X1!!! 😳
Hey atleast it ain’t got that 3-pot.
