  • Affordable Luxury at Rs 49 lakh (ex-showroom)

  • 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 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
