Pros and Cons

  • Positives
  • Negatives
Audi A6
  • New flashy design to the interiors
  • Three coloured screens to cocoon you in the drivers cockpit
  • New chassis is quite agile and comfortable
  • Petrol is refined and powerful
  • Looks sharp
BMW iX1
  • Affordable Luxury at Rs 49 lakh (ex-showroom)
  • The iX1 LWB is the most affordable luxury EV in India
  • Undercutting its competitors by a significant margin
  • Spacious Cabin
  • The longer wheelbase translates to better rear-seat comfort and more legroom, making it a great choice for chauffeur-driven passengers
  • Decent Range & Efficiency: 531 km range on a single charge (MIDC-rated) which translates to roughly 450 km real world range make it a practical choice for long-distance travel
  • BMW’s Signature Handling: Despite the front-wheel-drive setup
  • The iX1 LWB still maintains BMW’s nimble and precise steering, offering enjoyable driving dynamics
Audi A6
  • No diesel option
  • Not really a chauffeur driven option
  • Not really exciting from behind the wheel either
  • Only one drivetrain option
  • Audi has also chosen to leave quattro all-wheel drive, all-wheel steering and the more powerful engines off the options list
BMW iX1
  • Missing Features: No heads-up display, ventilated seats or advanced ADAS features like adaptive cruise control and autonomous emergency braking
  • Complicated Infotainment System: The iDrive OS9 interface is cumbersome, with tasks like adjusting regen modes buried deep in menus and physical buttons sorely missed
  • A bit of thud: At slower speeds, some road imperfections might creep into the cabin
