New BMW iX3 2021 Review Interior Exterior

Show video

hello guys and welcome back to a new video finally  i have a proper electric bmw to review and today   i have with me the new ix3 SUV from BMW it's a  full electric car but before that if you   are in Switzerland or around Switzerland you can  come right here at Auto Marti in Switzerland i will   leave the link in the description so you can check  them out they have plenty of bmw cars great price   and you can test drive and stuff like that anyway  check out the website and now guys let's review   this new bmw i want to give you the technical  detail i will go in the interior we will talk   about the the comfort the quality materials we  will talk about a little bit about the technical   details in the beginning and also the price i  cannot give you the price because it's differ   from country to country but i will still add it  on the screen so you can see you can make an idea   of where is starting the price of this new BMW  ix3 full-electric finally thank you BMW and   to be honest the quality in the interior the  quality the feeling of driving it's like a proper   bmw and that's make me really happy uh the only  downside is that the car it's built on the older   platform of the x-free so the shape of the car the  platform is the same uh and they try to fit inside   the battery the electric motors and all that  uh technical uh stuff for a proper electric car   uh in the future we i really really wait  to see a proper electric car on an electric   platform from bmw but before of that let's start  review the car here is the key guys kind of the   same key as you find it on the new bmw i like  very much that it's very light one of the lightest   this key on the market uh and also guys check  this out the car come with automatic lift gate   we will talk a little bit later about the space  in the trunk and all that stuff also you can close   it from here press a few a few seconds but the  thing is that you have to hold it all the time   until the the trunk is closed so you cannot leave  the button on anyway if you lock the car you have   also, of course, the car come let me go on the other  side it comes with um keyless entry so you all you   have to do is just have the key in your pocket and  then if you come here you put your finger around   here if i'm not wrong and then you can lock the  car check this out the car it's locked it comes   with electric uh folding mirrors also here is the  the the place if you put your hand and you want to   open the door you can open it without any problem  by having the key in your pocket uh and also the   the mirrors are folding out you can also stop  the mirrors you have an option inside so you can   you can block it to not fold and unfold every  time you lock and unlock the car so now that you   see the key guys um let me start with the lights  i will leave the key here because you don't even   need to use it and let me turn on the lights i  really want to show you the lights first time   because those are very important in the nighttime  so i just turn on the lights i don't know if you   can see it so well but the car come with full led  lights in the back the same design as on the x3   you can see the led light right here the blinkers  the taillights look really nice and always bmw   has some beautiful beautiful uh design on the  taillight so you can see it even from the back   here so you can make uh a better idea in my  opinion the x3 actually this ix3 body it's   it's beautiful it's slick it's nice um and yeah  the fact that they use also this latest technology   it's really interesting also here you have a nice  mirror beautiful mirror in the same color as the   car shape design here very similar i like the fact  that they add this glossy plastic here on the leg   of the mirror then you have on the down part uh a  camera here because the car come with 360 degrees   cameras it's amazing when you want to park  the car it's a great system i will show you   when we go inside the car as well blind spot  technology in the mirror glossy plastic even   here on the interior of the mirror big mirror  so you should have a great great visibility   and going in the front here let's go to the light  here also full led lights in the front the same   same system as the x3 have it also the  turning signal led everything here is the   latest technology bmw adaptive led so those lights  are also adaptive in the nighttime so you cannot   blind the other traffic participant and it's just  insanely good and also if you look closely there   you can see that they work on every single detail  pretty nice so classic and beautiful i always love   those bmw uh lights always always from years and  years uh i think they make such a nice such a nice   design in terms of of uh lights anyway this is  the light guys now if we go a little bit forward   you can see that here in the front we have the  biggest changes and you can see the front grille   here we have some glossy plastic a flat one so  you don't have any air intakes they try to make it   as much aerodynamic as possible if on the normal  version of the car you will have that grille   where the the air come inside here you don't have  so much space where the air come in just a little   bit here you can see that they send somehow the  air here and then the air will go up a little bit   so inside will go a little bit of air but not  so much so it helps the aerodynamic of the car   much more we have a camera right here in the  middle so for that system 360 degree system   also the bmw logo with blue around there so  you know that this is a special electric car   when you see that blue around the logo also the  hood of the car it's nice it has some nice shapes   and lines uh right here on the hood it  make it look much more interesting and also   sporty it looks much sportier then we have also on  the bumper here they also try to make it as simple   as possible so it will send the air around the car  here uh it comes with six parking sensors in the   front those sensors on the side they are used also  for blind spot technology so that's great also   you have somehow some some kind of air intakes  right here that uh lead the air around the car   so for a better aerodynamic it helped the range  of the car at least for those electric cars the   the front of the car uh have to be the slick as  possible uh the smooth as possible so the air will   go easily around the car you know like a bullet  then down here you have the rudder for adaptive   cruise control emergency brake and all that safety  features and also uh here it's closed you can see   it has some clappers that are closed right there  if you look closely so the air cannot go inside   on the down part we have some chrome design on the  down part right here but overall it looks really   really good i like very much uh the front part i  like that they make it uh much more aerodynamic so   for an SUV it's pretty nice it's pretty slick and  also what i observe is that the down part here the   ground clearance in the front it's pretty big you  know so that would lead the air to go down there   a little bit easier so that's that's pretty nice  also you can see they had some kind of plastic   there so uh the air can go around the car and  under the car much more much more easier so that's   nice so they put a little bit of work here even if  it's a ic platform they still put a lot of work in   the car then around the wheels here they add some  kind of plastic protection i like that very much   because those plastic around the wheels will  protect the car the paint in in terms of scratches   and stones and all kinds of stuff so in time from  rust will be really really protected also you can   see the eye right here i come from electric or  plug-in or you know it's it's something with   electric so i like that the way it looks and  i like the fact that they add it here um then   going forward also on the down part you have some  plastic and also they add some kind of skirt here   that make the car much more sportier and it looks  nicer with that chrome also the chrome element on   the car look pretty interesting you can see it  make the car much more luxurious look in a way   and going in the back of the same story  the same plastic around the wheels here   to protect the paint uh i like that then if you  go up here around the windows also the windows are   tinted windows in the back i like the fact that  it has this glossy plastic between the windows   chrome design as i said before and also chrome  design up here on the roof on the roof rails   so that gives the car a little bit of style this  chrome also on the roof there you have the radio   antenna in the same color as the car i like it  also it's pretty aerodynamic and even this roof   spoiler in the back here um the way it comes here  with this glossy plastic look really spectacular   and also you have the brake light here led of  course and and i like i like this design i like   very much the roof spoiler the way they they  design it it's pretty nice and if you look from   the side you can see that they really try to make  it to squeeze the back a little bit like a coupe   shape for aerodynamic of course other than that  going forward here on the right side you have the   charging port by the way guys the car come with  an ac charging also you can charge it at home for   example at a normal socket you will need maybe 20  25 hours but you can charge it with 11 kilowatt at   public charging station and you will need maybe  three hours four hours but the great part is   that you have the chance to charge it also  at dc ccs with maximum power of 150 kilowatt   and then in 30 minutes you will have 80 full and  this is insanely good uh the battery of the car   80 kilowatt 80 kilowatt hour but the usable uh  usable battery it's around 74 kilowatt hour so   it's a pretty big battery the range the estimated  range of the car it's around 470 kilometer maybe   a little bit less but you can expect around 400  kilometer i think in the winter maybe a little   bit less this is normal for every electric cars  also it has 286 horsepower , 400 newton meters   so it's a pretty fast uh SUV in my opinion if  i'm not wrong zero to 100 around 6.8 seconds   it's pretty pretty good for an suv for the first  electric suv made by bmw it's not bad at all now   we are in the back here the same badge BMW badge  with blue around there the camera reverse camera   even on the number plate we have led lights you  can see it right there pretty good quality i like   that ix3 you have writing here in the back  other than that the back it's very similar with x3   so you don't know any difference maybe a little  bit of the bumpers here they try to make it as   round as possible also six parking sensors you  can see first one here second one those on the   side are used for blind spot technology some light  reflectors on the bumper then you have some kind   of normal black matte down here and i can say  adios to those exhaust pipes it's kind of a shape   of the exhaust pipe it's like a shadow of the  exhaust pipes a shadow it's left here and behind   but other than that pretty slick pretty simple um  design so that's the exterior guys i think you can   make already an idea i want to talk a little bit  about the rims so you can see if i look a little   bit backward you can see the rims they try to  make it different it's unique it's for the first   time when we see some kind of rims they try to  make it as aerodynamic as possible for electric   cars so the air can float around the wheels really  easy so it will not stop or something like that   so they look nice interesting um and unique also  BMW with the same blue badges there then we have   Michelin tires pilot i'll pin five those are  winter tires because it's cold here uh and and and   then if i'm not wrong those are 19-inch rims uh  yes right here you can see 19-inch rims they look   pretty good if you if you want to make the car  look much better you can add some bigger one but   then the range will be uh less than what is now  so i i really recommend you to use those that bmw   come with now ventilated brake discs in the front  there uh and pretty big brake discs in the front   even though the electric cars don't use too much  the brakes uh i think it still have pretty good   brakes in the back here also ventilated or not  yes let me see yes they are ventilated brake discs   and they are a little bit smaller this time in  the front but anyway guys uh in the back it has   multi-link suspensions and wrist bone in the front  so keep in mind that you have pretty good   suspension this is a rear-wheel drive car so  the motor is somewhat somewhere uh in the back   so keep in mind that BMW keep that tradition of uh  rear-wheel drive so that's just an information uh   great now the exterior design you already see it  the handles you already see it it's very similar   i don't know if i miss something but let  me go to the front part let me show you   the hood guys by the way i forget to show you  the cameras there connection drive and stuff   like that those are camera for lanes it's reading  the traffic speed limit also the sensors for rain   and light are right there anyway let's go in the  front let's open this hood i like so much this   hood from bmw uh it's so easy to open it up it's  an automatic lift gate and all you have here it's   just nothing it's a plastic right here so no space  uh right here they they probably didn't have time   to to to work too much on every detail to make  a space here but usually if we take this plastic   cover off you will see that it's a big big space  there around the things right there because it's   not the engine or stuff like that so anyway yeah  this is the hood i just want to show you pretty   fast and this one i have to close it better right  now it's good let's go in the back but before let   me close the lights because i think you already  see the lights the interior it's it's amazing   we will go in a second in the interior and i will  talk a little bit about the interior as well but   let me go in the back as you see before automatic  liftgate right here pretty nice also you have the   buttons here to lock into close led light up here  uh huge entrance i love the entrance right here   it's very similar with uh x3 and i like very  much this design and this mechanical stuff   on the doors uh like the bmw make it it's so  small it doesn't take so much space and that make   uh the entrance in the trunk here looks so big  and so huge and i like that i like very much this   design of the the opening i don't know how they  call it but i i like them the way they are and   they use it on almost all the cars plenty of  space here in the trunk you have a flat floor   you have this aluminum here it looks classy  it looks nice you have hooks in every corner   some storage space here on the left side you  have even a small led here you have also those   handles where you can fold down the seats i will  show you in a moment you have a speaker up here   on the roof and you can see on the side here  also another one on the other side led again   those where you can fold down the seats i will  show you in a second guys uh also you have the   12 volt port right here and you have a hook for  the groceries pretty nice also the quality here   on the side it's pretty good you have a flat floor  you have also this protection here for the trunk   that you can put it like that or you can  take it out let's see what it's under here   under here as you see not so much space just a  little bit of space for the cables and you have   this net right here it's great that you can put  it here you have space for it so you can use it   if you have dogs and stuff like that and you have  the cables the the classic cables where you can   charge the car at normal socket keep in mind every  electric car you can charge it at home but you   need more hours around 20 hours or stuff like that  then you have this 11 kilowatt charger that you   can charge it in three-four hours and pretty nice  great quality i like it i like what BMW make with   uh with this car and take into consideration it's  a platform that it's not for electric cars i think   it's it's quite spacious so now let's fall  down the seat as i show you uh right here from   this handle just pull it like that and you can see  you can fall down the seats just in in one second   the seats are really really there and they are  really smooth as you see it goes really smooth   down pretty interesting now guys check this  out the entrance in the car it's a huge huge   entrance you have a flat floor right here that's  something that i like very much and also the   quality down here it's insanely good on the floor  also you can see that glass roof that looks really   spectacular you can open the first part of it it's  a really really practical space here in my opinion   huge space you can carry really  really big items without any problem here and it   looks quite quite uh good also if i go on the  side you can make a better idea here you have   huge entrance um in the car and then you can  see also from this angle a little bit better   how much space you have right there um in the back  really nice also you have left some space   here on the legs room the transmission tunnel  is not so big so it's pretty okay and overall   you have uh you have an impressive impressive  space here to be honest i like what i see for an   electric SUV it's it's more than enough space yeah  great job BMW let's go forward guys let me put   everything back and let's go forward one more  thing i want to show you right here guys on the   seats is the fact that you can fall down only the  middle part and then you will have a long space   here where you can carry long items without  any problem so this is this is really insane   check this out it's really really great uh it's  really helpful you still have two passengers in   the back in the same time you can carry your ski  or wherever you want to carry uh very very easily   so uh also very very practical thing i like that  and the other thing that i want to show you is the   fact that here down here you have a handle where  if you pull it you can see you can adjust the seat   in a straighter position so um how cool is that  you can have it all the way on the back so in a   relaxed position or you can have it a little bit  straighter just like that if you want to carry   more items in the back so it's super simple just  pull this up and then push it all the way on the   back okay pretty hard with one hand but still very  practical i like that now let's go to the door   before we go inside here we have kind of the  same door as the normal x3 a small window   big windows that you can fold it all the way  down you have leather and high high quality uh   materials here on the doors i like it then you  have this kind of a plastic mat here in gray   you have the speaker right here in gray look  really nice the x uh the handle the leather   again right here pretty impressive i like the way  it looks and also you have ambient light in blue   if you look if we zoom a little bit there you can  see the ambient light somewhere under here it look   gorgeous leather leather here on armrest  even here you have this leather and nice   quality the buttons in gray i love them i think  they take it from mercedes and you can fall down   all the way down this window and you can see it's  work really fast i mean i like the way how fast   how fast the window is closed it's really fast  so the the the motor the little motor there it's   really good and good quality plenty of  storage space in the door bends i like that and   then you have another small speaker there the  same in gray beautiful color i like very much   the quality on the doors great job BMW really  really appreciate what you do and if i'm not wrong   it has also an led on the upper side here not sure  about that i have to check a little bit later but   beautiful quality anyway let's go  inside uh here in the interior guys   those are the seats leather seats the same same  design as on the x3 beautiful beautiful design   great quality even here on the side we have this  leather amazing quality so the comfort is perfect   you have the perfect comfort the perfect  combination the headrest leather everything   is leather side support they are bright enough  long enough i'm curious i will go inside easelfix   you can install uh two child seats super easy you  don't have to take this plastic out all you have   to do is just stick it in super super easy so the  the design the way they look it's it's beautiful   so um i like them i like them very much also in  the middle here you have an armrest that you can   use it as a a place where you can put your phone  or wherever you want to put super fancy and also   you can open these two cup holders right there  so it's a pretty practical space i like   it very much i really really like it also look at  the glass roof i don't even need to tell you it's   it's insanely beautiful all  over the roof there it's it's great behind the   front seat you have some plastic to protect the  seats some storage space here and other than that   let me go inside for the first time inside here in  the back and here you have some vents pretty good   vents so they feel nice as you touch it then  you have the controls for the climatic system   so you can change the climatic system the way  you want it you can turn it off off and on if   you look a little bit down you have some storage  space here and then you have two usbc ports   super useful these days those are insanely useful  so great job bmw i like that let me close the door   by the way guys here is a highway plenty of cars  thousands of cars pass by if i close the door the sound insulation it's good it's silent  it's nice i think you can hear me a little   bit better right now anyway let's see the space  here in the back plenty of space on my head   i like that plenty of space on my knees no problem  i like that i can stretch a little bit the legs   under the fronts hit and you can see the seats  it's in normal position kind of in my position   a little bit more backward than my position there  and i still have plenty of space but it's always a   butt but yeah and you have like three fingers here  i think i have three fingers because the battery   is under the floor of the car you still have you  still have your legs a little bit upper here your   knees but i'm surprised that the quality and the  uh the comfort it's quite quite good i like it and   also so on the back i feel like it's it's bright  enough it's big enough and i have plenty of space   and yes as i said before look at the ambient light  even on the upper side and even on the downside   there i'm not sure if you can see it right now  here but yeah we have ambient light up and down   right here the visibility on the windows  it's quite quite good i like it i like   the position on the seats i can put the seats  also a little bit straighter as i said before   if you want to stay straight or if you want to  stay all over on the back and you have great great   comfort good visibility uh you have another window  right here where you have good visibility also you   have this place where you can put that net for  dogs and stuff uh also you have an ambient light   led light here two handles hooks and then you have  also this net here where you can put your net i   don't know if you can see it so well come on let  me zoom just like that all right now you see it   good quality on the roof by the way very  good quality bmw always add a great quality   on the roof and if you look at the glass roof  from here you have an amazing amazing visibility   i love it i love this glass roof it make it so  bright it makes the car so bright so nice uh it's   it's really good now let's go in the middle  because you have a small transmission tunnel you   can go easily in the middle right here uh plenty  of space on my knees so you can see right here   on my head as well i have plenty of  space right here no problem with the space   even if i go in the back a little bit like that  oh yeah and even on those seats i'm surprised   that even here in the middle i feel pretty good i  don't know why maybe because they don't make any   any uh support on the side you know maybe they  make it flat like that and that why maybe even the   people the person in the middle can stay really  really good and i like that i don't remember if   it's on the normal x3 is the same but this this  is really really good to be honest and stretch   my hand completely stretch my hand completely so  you can have free person here in the back without   any problem so i like it i really really like  it very very much i mean great job with the   seats with the space in the back the fact that  you can have free person here you can see it   has his own space it's just gorgeous guys going  in the front here big windows good visibility   also we have the Harman Kardon by the way the  speakers uh great sound inside the car   with those Harman Kardon speakers great quality  the leather on the upper side the same ambient light   in the door here on the downside as well handle  this time here you have an electric seat position   you can save it from here lock and unlock leather  here on the side leather right here also you have   the buttons these great buttons in great good  quality as you touch it right here you can also   open the trunk adjust the mirrors fold the  mirrors from those buttons another speaker   so keep in mind that you have amazing sound  in this car with these Harman Kardon speakers   plenty of storage space right here in the  doorbends ixfree first edition you can see   it right it on the on this nice aluminium plate  normal pedals no aluminum pedals some storage   space here where you can put your stuff um as  you see before electrically adjustable seat you   can adjust it from here in every position you want  that's nice and also you can adjust the front part   the same great quality high quality seats i like  them very much so you already know it from the x3   so you have side support great  quality they're wide bright no problem in terms   of uh back pain or stuff like that uh they are  they're really good and they look also good   here you have the controller for the light pretty  nice the new one much more fancier the vents right   here also good quality nice chrome design all over  the dash you have soft material leather stitches   uh the car come also with the head up display let  me go inside to show you uh if you start the car   guys um right here let me start the car right now  and you can see the head-up display right there   on the screen the quality is gorgeous and you have  it directly on the windshield so that's that's   that's a great quality if you know BMW you  know that they make good head-up display   one of the best on the market you can adjust the  steering wheel the way you want it up down left   right in every position you want super simple  manually from down there uh the steering wheel   it's also pretty good quality also i like this  blue around the badge here great quality leather   a nice grip so easy to control then the head-up  display you already know it the newest this one   from the bmw great resolution great quality i  have a full review with this multi-media system   multimedia system and also cockpit so check  it out on my channel if you want to see it   you have different controllers from here  you can control different function on the   on the cockpit right there so you can change  it from here from behind i don't want to go too   much into detail i just want to show you pretty  fast you can see the consumption and stuff here   is the cruise control controllers right here  on the steering wheel on the other side also   different function you can control from here for  example the radio the station the the music and   the voice command as well so the overall the  steering wheel it's nice it's light the the   size of it it's great here you have some  armrest leather huge storage space here with   an USB c port down there going forward you have  electronic hand brake auto hold you have this   360 degrees camera if you press this button  you can see right here on the screen uh rear   for example right now it's in the rear but if you  go back you can see also that 360 degrees cameras   around the car so let me see how can you do  that if i'm not wrong if you go in the rear   yes if you go in rear you can see it  right there you can control you can see   every single camera right here you just have  to press it you have also this uh possibility   to see every single camera and around the car  also i don't want to go too much into details   with that stuff but keep in mind that you have  this gorgeous 360 degrees you have this 3D view so where you can see the car all you have to  do is just press those buttons you can see where   is the car in this moment so anyway i don't want  to go too much into detail with this one as well   you have three different driving modes port  comfort echo pro where you can drive economical   comfort to give you the best comfort and sport  yeah the best performance you probably know   on the electric cars really recommend you to go on  echo pro if you want to have much more range the   controllers are very similar as the normal bmw you  can control from here navigation system multimedia   system and everything what is there on the car  the only single things that is different here   on those electric cars is right here when you have  the plan if i'm not wrong the plan here where you   can charge you can choose the charging time  and and stuff like that and then you have this   where is this let me show you you have general  sitting driving modes not here carrying car   driving profile it should be driving information  yes here on the driving information you have   this energy flow guys where you can see when  you drive uh how much battery you have left   and where the energy go and and all kind of  information other than that the multimedia system   is similar the climatic system it's the same  one you have right here ix free first edition   one of 100 wireless charging plenty of storage  space here cup holders uh the globe box it's   pretty okay not huge but okay you have some led  light there you have led light on the dashboard   visibility is just perfect from the driver point  of view and also you have the vents you have this   button in blue here uh the mirror is nice and you  have quite a good visibility in the back there i   think you can see it also led lights up here sos  button you can see it simply led light mirror   microphone handles you can open also this glass  roof if you want to only the first part as i said   before uh and you can close it completely the  way you want so it's it's super simple   other than that great quality everywhere i like  it very much and also if you want to see this   bmw multimedia system just check it out on my  channel i don't want to go too much into details   right now to make the video very long but you  have a video on my channel if you want to see it   so guys i guess that was my review with the new  bmw ix3 full-electric I'm happy that BMW   really finally brings some electric power on  the market and um i want to see the future i want   to see a proper electric platform from  the BMW so other than that they did a great job   i like the car i like very much what they did with  the car and the technology everything here feels   like a proper normal BMW so that's a nice  nice thing it's a very silent and nice car   okay guys i hope you
