BMW iX1 has officially launched in Nepal.
Laxmi Premium Motors, the authorized distributor of BMW vehicles in Nepal, has unveiled yet another BMW fully electric car.
BWM iX1 offers a more affordable electric vehicle option compared to the already available BMW iX3. The iX1 is based on the BMW X1 with a similar build, styling, and premium appeal.
However, the iX1 goes a step further by offering a unique driving experience with its advanced electric technology.
Despite being heavier than the X1 due to the electric drivetrain underneath, the iX1’s increased weight does not compromise its agility or performance.
The iX1 is constructed on BMW’s FAAR (Frontantriebsarchitektur) Platform.
The new platform has been optimized for electric powertrains, while helping BMW to transition from its traditional Rear-Wheel Drive to Front-Wheel Drive.
Because of this, iX1 has a Front Wheel Drive and achieves a 50-50% weight distribution, ensuring balanced handling and stability on the road.
What is the Price of the BMW iX1 in Nepal?
BMW iX1 price in Nepal is Rs. 1,49,96,000.
iX1 has been priced less than the pricier iX3 without any compromises on trademark BMW premium and luxury feel.
Additionally, BMW Nepal offers a 2-year (and Unlimited Miles) Vehicle Warranty, an 8-year (or 160000 Km) Battery Warranty, and a 2-year Motor and Charger Warranty.
