Hey everyone!

The ordering and pricing guides for the 2025 iX have come out, dealers are just starting to get allocations for the 2025 model year.

The base price has only gone up $150, which seems like a small win.

There is a new option, Code ZID, Interior Design Package which includes M Interior Trim in Dark Silver and an M steering wheel. This is optional on the iX50 and standard on the iX M60. On the iX50, you are required to order ZSP Sport Package in order to be able to add this package.

For those of you who have wished you could get something other than Titanium Bronze trim in your iX50, that is now possible.

Expect first US deliveries in late April/Early May.

As always, if you need help with a custom ordered iX, you can feel free to reach out by emailing me at scott@insightautoconsulting.com

Also, to pre-empt what I know will be asked, no, there is no lease program released, but I have no reason to believe it would be any different from a 2024.

Thanks Scott. Lot of info in what you shared. Bet the new M steering wheel will be very popular.

[javapro]

No extra charge for aventurin red metallic is definitely a mistake.

[hugo_nz]

Interest to see both the silver trim option and the m-steering wheel

[BMWEVGuy]

Thanks for sharing this info Scott. It was expected that things would barely change for MY2025 since MY2026 is supposed to be LCI.

I am still waiting to see if BMW will update 2024 iX to have i5 like lane change triggered with eye movement. That seems to be just a software update and there is no reason why everyone on iDrive 8.5 shouldn’t get to upgrade to that level of automated driving.

It is more of a head movement when looking at the side mirrors.

Wait…2025 already ? I got 2022 like 1.5 years ago lol

Oh yeah thanks for correction

Anyone have any pictures of the silver trim? If they still leave the brown wood, I’m not sure it’ll actually be any better… but hopeful they’d change to silver/gray wood, or silver/CF.

I’ve looked twice- on the sport package… is theee ride height adjustment? I liked the air suspension and thought it came back?

New iX model years are released every March lately.

2-axle air suspension is under “Options” - code 2VR. It’s not part of the sport package but a separate option.

2025s can be ordered now and there is a stop sale on 24’s due to coolant leak. Should be interesting if 25’s get released before 24’s or they both don’t get shipped until they can fix things

Thanks! I’m terrible reading these guides on the phone.

Have they stopped production on 24s? Doesn’t sound like any retooling will be needed so transition to a new model year would more or less be a calendar event….perhaps commencing March 1st.

The 24's are now able to be sold again, customers just need to sign a waiver.

No re-tooling, 24's are still in production as we speak and I still have 2024 allocations yet to go into production.

[BMWEVGuy]

If one has 2024 allocation could they request change to 2025 on the same terms as 2024 if their state is order received but the production hasn't started yet ?

[GOLFFRR]

2024 allocation still out there FYI. Not sure if that is posted already or not. ( Last I spoke with Jimmy Miller he said there is a waiver of some sort) you can always contact Jimmy and he can give you more info if need be as well.

[VirtualGuitars]

See a lot of familiar names on this thread! Miss you guys.

[volodp]

Laser lights, interesting. I thought they were discontinued on all models. Even i7 doesn’t seem to have them nowadays. Or does it?

The base price has increased $150 so you're not going to escape that, but that's like $3/mo on a lease, if that.

Whether or not they want to do the same deal on a 2025 is up to them. I'd imagine they'll so no, they'd rather have your car sold.
