Fresh off the debut of the new iX3, BMW is introducing its swoopier sibling. The BMW iX4 is the automaker’s latest Neue Klasse model, and it doesn't deviate much from what we've already seen—except in one major area.

The iX4 blends coupe-like styling with the automaker’s sixth-generation eDrive technology. The iX4 will enter production early next year in two trims, both offering all-wheel drive.

The entry-level iX4 50 xDrive has two electric motors producing a combined 463 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque. The SUV accelerates from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 4.7 seconds. It has a 130-mph top speed.

The iX4 M60 xDrive’s dual-motor setup produces 603 hp and 645 lb-ft of torque, matching the new iX3 M60. The hotter iX4 can reach 60 mph from a standstill in 3.7 seconds and has a higher top speed: 149 mph.

The iX4 has a 112.2-kilowatt-hour (usable) battery, and the iX4 50 can travel up to 428 miles on a charge, according to the automaker. BMW hasn’t released the range for the iX4 M60, but buyers should expect less.

The electric SUV can tow up to 4,400 pounds when equipped with the optional trailer hitch.

Here are the numbers:

What Does The New iX4 Offer?

The iX4 features BMW’s latest design language, with the brand’s iconic kidney grille and twin headlights. Every iX4 comes standard with the M Sport Package, which includes 20-inch M wheels and optional M Sport brakes with blue calipers.

Inside, the iX4 is nearly indistinguishable from the iX3. The new electric SUV comes with BMW’s Panoramic iDrive system, which includes the 17.9-inch central display.

The hotter M60 variant gets its own upgrades. It has a black diffuser, black M mirror caps, and new badging.

It comes standard with 21-inch wheels and M Sport brakes with red calipers, which are optional on the iX4 with the M Sport Professional pack. BMW’s M Yellow Lights are optional. An M-specific spoiler increases rear-axle downforce.

Inside, the M60 gets a special M Sport steering wheel with a red 12 o'clock mark. A 13-speaker Harman Kardon sound system replaces the standard 7-speaker system in the iX4 50.

The iX4 M60 xDrive will come standard with BMW’s Adaptive M Suspension. It has electronically controlled dampers and variable-ratio sport steering paired with bespoke spring and damper tuning. This includes fitting anti-roll bar links at the front axle.

The hotter iX4 also has an electronically controlled M Sport differential to improve traction. It also offers two exclusive drive modes, M Sport and M Sport Plus, which adjust steering and chassis settings.

The BMW iX4 will go on sale in March 2027. The iX4 50 will arrive first, “followed shortly afterward” by the iX4 M60.

The iX4 50 will start at $66,220, plus destination, which BMW has not disclosed. We expect iX4 M60 pricing closer to the SUV’s on-sale date.
