REVIEW: The BMW iX M60 is the most powerful electric BMW so far - does it live up to its outrageous performance figures?
You might argue that the same goes for the M60’s design, but to these eyes, it does a commendable job of disguising its not inconsiderable 4953mm length and 2240mm width. Exterior changes versus the xDrive50 are restricted to ‘M’ badges on the rear and sides of the body, and the option of 22in M Aerodynamic bi-colour alloy wheels.
We’ve already tested the xDrive50 M Sport and, with only minor changes to its outward and inward appearance, much of what we noted still applies to the M60. Through doors with frameless windows, you access a light and spacious cabin, which feels still roomier thanks to the raised central console, leaving an open, flat-floored channel between the driver and front passenger.
When we drove the M60 in May on particularly forgiving German roads, we were impressed by its ride and composure. Surprisingly, on gnarled and pitted UK roads, with our test car riding on the optional 22in rims, the M60 still makes a strong case for itself, ironing out all but the worst imperfections, even at low speeds. That it does so with hardly a murmur from the suspension, makes for a remarkably refined and relaxed driving companion.
What isn’t, though, is the 2.6-tonne M60’s ability to gather pace. When you bury the accelerator pedal at 30mph, thrust is abrupt and violent, and there’s no let-up as speeds increase, either. All the time, it's accompanied by a manic, Hans Zimmer-created wail, which I guess is the new EV equivalent to a Ferrari’s V12 at full chat.
