It’s still listed in the written description for the package, however (glass and wood controls). I would trust the description over the rendered interior visual.

Congrats on the new ride. I might be one of the few, but I love the older/regular steering wheel. It suits the iX perfectly.

This steering is BMW factory placed ?
It is identical to X1 X2. I guess they would put at least 5 series design which has high gloss polished button surfaces. |

I feel like the original iX steering wheel was designed for those who use the practical wheel a lot less (using DAS), like myself, who the vast majority of the time has one hand resting in the bottom center. However, I can see the appeal of the round steering wheel if you're the type to use the wheel a lot more often to get a more traditional driving experience. Either way, it should be a choice imho, not an upgrade. Probably why they added the red accents and M60 badge...cause then they can psychologically justify the additional $400 for the change.

I can´t understand why BMW are continuing using the tacky red stripe on a "luxury car". It looks so much better on the iX xDrive40 and iX xDrive50.

Welcome to the steering wheel of the 90's. The current one fits the vehicle better.

200 % with you on that one. My 1st EV was the ox (leased car) but I am pretty sure my second one will be a Porsche (bought). Potentially a Macan EV if they don’t have the Cayenne EV.

Probably. Most reviews of any B&W system put it at the top of any system they have reviewed. The iX is the best of the best.
