Isn't that what BMW advertises?

I have seen one actual performance test video on U-Tube where a IX50 did 0-60 in 3.91sec if I remember with 90% SOC.

I have the 2023 IX50 myself and while the M60 is cool for some, the faster 0-60, more torque and more horsepower means absolutely nothing to me. My IX50 gets me a range of 366 miles with 100% SOC (best I have ever achieved) on 22in 1021wheels and I like the ride and handling.

Both 50 and M60 are more than fast enough for the majority, especially in the US since the highway speed is limited and constantly monitored by HP & ST.

BMW advertises 4.4 seconds. I, too, am getting incredible range out of the iX. A few days ago I charged to 315 miles @ 80% SOC and right now I'm sitting at 60% SOC w/ 250 miles remaining!

I agree with you, if I lived in Germany I would have the M60.

I have been in Germany on business trips several times and driving on the autobahn is really awesome. I was with a business partner and we were driving a Mercedes at sustained high speed for miles, oh what fun.

YES I would have the M60 if I lived there.

My IX50 was loaded except the B&W sound system, so a M60 would,t have cost me that much more.
