"The rear-drive BMW iX3 40 still delivers 395 miles of WLTP range despite its smaller battery. At 7,500 less than the xDrive 50, the iX3 40 may be the sweet spot in the lineup."
"The 40 model loses all-wheel-drive grip, but with 315 horsepower and 369 lb-ft going to the rear wheels, it still sprints to 62 mph in 5.9 seconds."
"Charging is not up to the same level either, with peak charging power dropping from 400 kW to 300 kW, which means the 10-80% time is 21 minutes."
The BMW iX3 40 features a rear-drive configuration with a smaller 82.6-kilowatt-hour battery, providing a WLTP range of 395 miles. Priced at $7,500 less than the xDrive 50, it maintains strong performance with 315 horsepower and a 0-62 mph time of 5.9 seconds. While it sacrifices all-wheel drive and peak charging power, it remains a competitive choice for buyers seeking an electric SUV. The iX3 40 is lighter than the xDrive 50, enhancing its driving dynamics, although it has a lower top speed and slower charging capabilities.
