The 2026 BMW iX relies on design to stand out among a growing number of luxury electric vehicles.
The BMW iX receives minor styling updates for the 2026 model year, along with a reworked lineup that includes a much more affordable entry-level model and a more widely available M Sport Package. But the big news is the improved battery technology, which adds modest gains in power and range. These changes improve an already-appealing midsize electric SUV, but are they enough?
Verdict: The dizzying pace of change in the electric vehicle segment is how a likable luxury SUV such as the iX can seem like yesterday’s news after just a few short years. The 2026 BMW iX is competitive with the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV, but pales in comparison to the Lucid Gravity and the Rivian R1S.
