The all-new BMW iX3 M electric SUV has been confirmed for launch in the Nepalese market. Laxmi Premium Motors, the sole authorized importer and distributor of BMW cars in Nepal, will soon kickstart BMW's electrification journey in Nepal with the company's first all-electric SUV.
Powered by an 80 kWh battery pack, the BMW iX3 M delivers a range of up to 460 km (WLTP). The BMW iX3 M is expected to be priced between Rs 2.50 Crore- Rs 2.75 Crore in the Nepalese market.
The BMW iX3 M utilizes the brand’s fifth-generation eDrive powertrain from the single-motor BMW iX model. The BMW iX3 M is only available in a single-motor, rear-wheel drive configuration. The drive system generates a maximum output of 210 kW and a peak torque of 400 Nm.
The BMW ix3 M accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.8 seconds and the top speed is electronically limited to 180 km/h. Charging the electric SUV takes around seven and a half hours using the maximum AC charging power of 11 kW; alternatively, you can top-up the battery through a DC fast charger at up to 150 kW, filling it up to 80% in just 32 minutes.
The ix3 also gets the M Sport package as standard. This package brings bigger air intakes, L-shaped air curtains with blue accents and other aerodynamic upgrades. Similarly, 19-inch aerodynamic wheels are fitted as standard on the BMW ix3 with an option of 20-inch M-specific styling wheels.
Sport seats are now fitted as standard, while a modern control panel in the centre console and restyled controls in the centre of the instrument panel add to the premium ambience of the cabin. The BMW Live Cockpit Professional fitted as standard features a control display whose screen diagonal has been increased to 12.3 inches.
In terms of safety, it will feature BMW’s Driving Assistant Professional package, adding a full complement of active safety features like autonomous emergency braking, evasive steering assist, adaptive cruise control with stop and go, lane centring assist, blind spot monitoring, traffic sign recognition, emergency stop assist and adaptive high beam.
