The BMW iX has been launched in Malaysia back in August 2021, but today, we finally have its official price with the EV tax incentives in place. Starting at RM 361,430, the iX is RM58k cheaper than what it was before the latest EV incentive announcement.
The iX remains only available in the xDrive40 trim for the Malaysian market.

*Prices are OTR without insurance and without the extended warranty & service package.
With that being said, here are some pictures from its most recent preview at the Mandarin Oriental in Kuala Lumpur. If you’re interested to see the BMW iX and other electric cars by BMW, you can sign up for the event that is happening until 15 January 2022.
The BMW iX is about the size of a BMW X5, albeit with a much, much larger grille, making the car look smaller in relation (from a distance).
The iX xDrive40 sits on 21-inch wheels wrapped by 255/50R21 tyres.
A closer look at the car reveals the carbon cage that reinforces the chasis.
Although the iX may come across as too bold or obnoxious to some in terms of styling, its cabin still feels rather relevant in today’s day and age. Despite the futuristic design, it does not feel alien-like or too ahead of its time.

One thing to note about the BMW iX is that it doesn’t actually encourage you to open the hood. (Sorry car enthusiasts). The way to open it isn’t very obvious, and we’ll talk about that in another article.

Unfortunately, the BMW iX does not come with a ‘frunk’ like other electric cars built on a dedicated-EV platform.
The front seats of the BMW iX are decent, but the the back seats do feel like they lack thigh support. Nonetheless, there’s still plenty of legroom in the second row.
4 variants listed by BMW Malaysia with the “BMW iX xDrive40 Sport with Power Package” topping the range.
Prices start at RM 419,630 for teh BMW iX xDRive40 (wallbox not included), but do expect the recently announced tax-free incentives for EVs to bring prices of the BMW iX down.
