BMW iX3
The BMW iX3 2020 electric crossover is equipped with a 210 kW motor. Thanks to this, the electric car accelerates to the first “hundred” in 6.8 seconds. The top speed of the BMW iX3 2020 is 180 km/h, depending on the quality of the road surface.
Without additional charging the electric crossover can travel about 460 km on the WLTP cycle. With the NEDCP cycle, the range increases to 520 km. At the same time, the battery, which is integrated directly under the floor surface, can be charged using “fast” charging with a capacity of up to 150 kW. In this case, the battery can be charged to 80% in just half an hour. If you add another 10 minutes to the charging time, the range can be increased to 100 km.
The developers installed an electric motor in the rear of the crossover. During the launch it drives the rear axle of the car, which is usual for the fans of the Bavarian brand. Therefore, potential buyers should have no problems with driving the BMW iX3 2020.
The manufacturer will offer the electric crossover with optional Inspiring and Impressive kit. The information system will also support synchronization with BMW Live Cockpit Professional and BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant cloud services, which will simplify the storage of personal data.
Like many modern cars, the BMW iX3 2020 will have the ability to connect electronic handheld gadgets running on iOS and Android platforms. This will not only make it possible to use the functionality of smartphones and tablets, but also to free your hands while driving the car and talking on the phone at the same time, which will have a positive impact on the safety of the driver and passengers.

Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)
A public charging station is required to use the highest possible charging rate. The EVSE/charging station’s charging capacity affects how long it takes to fully charge the battery. The table below shows all possible options for fully charging the BMW i3s.
In Europe, plugging an electric car into an outlet is often as easy as plugging it into a household outlet, but there are differences from country to country. The table below shows the different ways to charge the BMW i3s, but in some countries some chargers may not be available.

Fast Charging (10 -> 80%)
If you want to enjoy driving an electric car, one of the most important features to consider is the number of miles per hour the car can travel while charged. This is called the “range” of the car. All electric cars have a certain range, even if they are 100% charged. This is because they do not have an internal combustion engine to lean on if you need to drive a long distance.
