The knob felt sturdy and good to use with just one finger. I press the start button and realize that the car has a gear knob instead of a gear lever that my X3 has. The seats of the car were big and they extended all the way to the door, but the seat base was flat compared to my X3 which has smaller seats but is more supportive. I adjusted the seat to my driving position and as I tried to adjust the steering, I realized that the steering also had an electric adjust. The electric seat adjust buttons were placed on the door. The steering had a flat bottom design, which felt nice to hold. I open the door of the car and I am welcome to this luxurious interior. The car is pretty big and is a whole size bigger than my X3. Leaving those aside, the side and the rear of the car look very attractive, especially the long rear lights. I am not a big fan of the front grille and the alloy wheels.
I was asked to wait outside the showroom and then the car pulled up in this beautiful shade of blue. But to my surprise, they asked me if I was okay with a BMW iX. I asked them if they had an electric car hoping to get an i4. I had to choose a loaner vehicle for the day. I had to drop off my X3 M40i at the dealership to replace the windshield camera housing. BMW iX xDrive50 First Impressions of a BMW X3 M40i owner BHPian athray9 recently shared this with other enthusiasts.
