This is all just straight line and doesn't take corners into play where the weight becomes a bigger factor.

The 8-series is also a heavy car but still has a big advantage over the iX. Either way, the only similarities between these cars is that they have 4-wheels and the same roundel on the hood. Other than that, it's a mango and apple comparison.

I don't even bother with Car Wow YT videos anymore. But if you enjoyed the TopGear comparisons between an Audi and Alpine skier then you may enjoy this as well.
