![]() ![]() Winner: Tesla Model Y Pricing and availability The Model Y has a longer range, if only by a little - but its faster charging speed cements its victory here. Unfortunately, the BMW iX charges at only 150kW, which means that it’ll take up to around 40 minutes to get from 0 to 80% battery. The iX M60 has a range of 288 miles, which is still quite good. The BMW iX xDrive50 has a range between 305 miles and 325 miles, depending on the wheel size that you go for. All Tesla Model Ys have a charging speed of 250 kilowatts, which is pretty fast and means that you’ll be able to charge from 10% to 80% in around 25 minutes - that isn’t bad. The base Model Y offers a range of 260 miles per hour, which isn’t bad - but if you really want range, you’ll upgrade to the Long Range model, which hits 330 miles. Range and charging have long been an advantage of Tesla cars. The slowest BMW is faster than the slowest Tesla, and of all the models, the Tesla Model Y Performance is the quickest. The xDrive50 is the base model, and it will get you from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 4.4 seconds, while the iX M60 gets there in 3.6 seconds. The BMW iX is available in two models - the iX M60 and the iX xDrive50. The base Model Y comes in rear-wheel drive - however, the Model Y Long Range and Model Y Performance both come in all-wheel drive. In the base model, you’ll get from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 4.8 seconds, however with the Model Y Performance, you’ll reach that speed in only 3.5 seconds. The Model Y is available in three different variants, including the standard Model Y, the Model Y Long Range, and the Model Y Performance. Tesla has a bit of a head start when it comes to developing EVs, and its cars are some of the best-performing ones out there. Overall, the tech in the Model Y is more advanced, however the interior of the BMW is nicer. Thankfully, the iX supports CarPlay and Android Auto. But it’s generally difficult to navigate and, at times, slow. It’s not horrible - and it’s better than it used to be. The displays are high-end and vibrant, even though they’re not as big as the Model Y’s screen.īMW’s iDrive infotainment isn’t as well-designed either. ![]() Unlike the Model Y, the iX has two displays at the front - one for infotainment and one for instrument monitoring. The fact that there are at least some physical controls is nice too - even though you’ll still have to access things like climate controls through the display. After having driven both of these cars, I can say the iX’s seats are more comfortable, and the materials seem a little more premium. The interior of the BMW iX is less minimalistic, though still quite premium. It’s also where you’ll access the various cameras dotted around the Tesla, as well as the self-driving features you’ll have access to. The car doesn’t support CarPlay or Android Auto, but its mapping system works great, and it supports many of the top streaming services, including the likes of Spotify and Apple Music. That display sits in at 15.4 inches, and it’s how you’ll interact with Tesla’s relatively well-designed infotainment system. The car has very few physical controls, stark black or white materials (like the vegan leather), and a large screen at the front. The interior of the Model Y, as you would expect, continues the ethos of minimalism from the exterior. The BMW is more unique, but you may or may not like the overall look. The Model Y is a more minimalistic, but it also feels a little safe. Ultimately, of course, design is subjective. The headlights are nice and slim though, as are the taillights, which complement a rear that looks a whole lot nicer than the front. The car offers the large front grille that BMW has been showing on other modern BMWs, and it’s a bit of a strange approach. The BMW iX is a little busier in design, and probably a little more controversial too. The car has slim, slanted headlights, along with a glass roof, and while it is starting to age a little, for the most part, the Model Y’s design still looks modern and sleek. The car offers the same overall look and shape as all of Tesla’s other current models, with its flush door handles and largely bare nose. ![]() Tesla launches more affordable Model S and Model X, but there’s a catchĮxterior design is one area in which Tesla puts its minimalism ethos on display. ![]() The BMW i4 is more luxurious than the Tesla Model S, and costs way less ![]()
