Comparison: Range (WLTP) BMW iX3 vs. competitors 2025

The range of an electric car, such as this , refers to the maximum distance it can travel on a single charge of its battery. This can vary widely depending on factors such as the size and capacity of the battery (iX3 : 80 kWh), the vehicle's weight ((iX3 : 2260 kg)) and aerodynamics, and the driving conditions.The WLTP range cycle (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedure) is a test procedure specifically designed to measure the range and consumption of an electric vehicle. It is done in variety of driving conditions, such as urban, suburban and highway driving , as well as air conditioning and heating usage.This test aims to provide a more realistic estimate of an electric vehicle's range than the previous testing method (NEDC), which was based on a single driving cycle.The longest range you can find amongst similar vehicles has Audi Q6 e-tron (GF ), which is 163km more than the iX3 - 621 km. For illustration, the difference in battery capacity between the BMW and the Audi is 20kWh. On the other hand, the shortest range in the "medium SUV" category belongs to Togg T10X Standardversion , which is 314 km - that makes it 144km shorter than the BMW in question.
