BMW iX3: Energy consumption, combined WLTP in kWh/100 km[1]: -; Electric range, WLTP in km[2]: -
Far. Further. Electric range. That's what determines how versatile an electric car is for everyday driving. BMW electric cars have high battery capacities, thanks to the use of innovative technologies. They are therefore both sustainable and high-performance. For instance, the BMW i7 eDrive50 and i7 xDrive60 as well as the BMW iX xDrive50 achieve a fully electric range of over 600 km according to the WLTP cycle. To charge them, one of New Zealand largest and constantly growing charging networks is at your disposal. Clever technologies on board further optimise the car's range. Charge-optimised routes automatically take over charge planning on longer journeys.

The figure indicated is the remaining charge level of the battery on arrival, with a 100% battery charge level at the start of the journey.
Total journey time incl. Charging
The journey time indicated is the sum of estimated driving time plus charging time if you have to include charging breaks on your route.
It is assumed that you are travelling on the fastest route without any traffic hold-ups or other delays.
Total journey time
The stated journey time is the estimated travel time. We have assumed that you are taking the fastest route, without traffic obstructions or other delays.
The charging capacity depends on the charge level, ambient temperature, individual driving profile and use of auxiliary devices as well as the actual vehicle selected. The charging times apply to ambient temperatures of 23 °C following a prior journey and may deviate according to usage characteristics. The values displayed are examples for the basic configuration of the model selected. The values may vary if the same vehicle has different equipment options.

HOW TO INCREASE YOUR RANGE. HINTS AND IDEAS FOR ELECTRIC CARS.
You can do a number of things to maximise the range of your electric car. Firstly, drive in an anticipatory manner on motorways. Preferably, drive at between 100 and 110 km/h on longer journeys. Avoid heavy braking. Simply lift your foot off the "electric pedal", that is, the accelerator, or apply moderate pressure to the brake. Cool or heat your electric car while it's still charging. And always use the BMW Efficient Mode.

MAXIMUM RANGE WITH MINIMUM EFFORT.
How to travel further. Efficient Mode helpfully provides you with information about how to drive more efficiently. Have a look at the display: the power display has a blue background when you're driving efficiently. But it turns grey if you drive inefficiently. However, should the remaining range start to look marginal, you can enable MAX RANGE mode and increase the remaining range by up to 20% with further efficiency measures.[3] And you can also get a rough estimate of your current range from the coloured circle on the map in the My BMW app.
[3] The achievable additional range depends on your driving style and the environmental conditions.

Consumption and CO2 emissions.
BMW iX3: Energy consumption, combined WLTP in kWh/100 km[1]: -; Electric range, WLTP in km[2]: -
The values of fuel consumptions, CO2 emissions and energy consumptions shown were determined according to the European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the version applicable at the time of type approval. The figures refer to a vehicle with basic configuration in Germany and the range shown considers optional equipment and the different size of wheels and tires available on the selected model.
The CO2 efficiency specifications are determined according to Directive 1999/94/EC and the European Regulation in its current version applicable. The values shown are based on the fuel consumption, CO2 values and energy consumptions according to the NEDC cycle for the classification.
When charging times are shown they can be affected by a number of factors such as type of charger, voltage supplied to the charger/car and type of current (AC or DC) supplied to the charger/car. The car also plays a role in charging times as it can be set by the driver to accept various different amperage and should preconditioning be used to heat or cool the vehicle while charging this will also affect the charging time.
The basis for the calculation of the charging times for 100 km range is the electric consumption of the vehicle based on the use of a high-Powered Charging station (HPC) or charging type and current as indicted in the literature above. The testing procedure measures are based on a 23 degrees Celsius battery start and ambient temperature with certification values excluding additional auxiliary consuming devices and systems within the vehicle such as seat heating, displays, air conditioning.
Individual consumption (fuel economy) may differ due to driving profile, vehicle load profile, auxiliary consumer usage, temperature, and ambient conditions. Consumption is based on WLTP or NEDC (whichever is indicated) best case conditions and is independently tested for BMW Group. If you are comparing this range with other models or brands make sure they are stating the same WLTP or NEDC testing regime. These results can be used to compare vehicles on a close to “like for like” basis but are unlikely to be achieved in real world conditions for reasons including temperature variation, driving conditions and the use of the auxiliary systems referred to above.

[1] Official data for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, power consumption and electric range was determined in accordance with the prescribed measuring procedure and corresponds to European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the applicable version. For ranges, data determined as per WLTP takes into account any optional equipment (available on the German market in this case). For vehicles that have been newly type approved since 1 January 2021, only the official data according to WLTP exists. In addition, NEDC values are deleted from the certificates of conformity as of 1 January 2023 by EC regulation 2022/195.
