More touch screen tomfoolery to distract you from the all important task of keeping the thing on the road and avoiding hitting the guy in front.
I haven’t seen this chick on screen for over a decade but she is like a fine wine ain’t she.
She once drove me out of the stadium at top gear live , really nice person.
Chick what’s Chick got to do with it, it’s not 1985 in the real world Numpty
I hate touch screen controls in cars. Bring back knobs and buttons that are easy to use while driving
But they require extra wiring!
All BMWs have a knob in them.
A welcome surprise to see Vicki Butler-Henderson and a flash back reminder of a Fifth Gear and Tiff Needell.
I suggest all future videos, no matter the car, include VBH sideways and backing it in.
Adding all the main extras takes the price very close to £70k!

The indicators usually cost that much on a BMW, that's why most don't have them.
What a great video and review! Fantastic music! And you rock!
Notice manufacturers are giving us less now for more money 😢
No thanks I'll stick to my horse and cart .
And I've got one on my farm and the horse is always pleased to see you. It is however terrifying going on the road where cars don't consider the animal.
Did you say electric ! No thanks especially a BMW.
Rotary controls gone, touchscreen insanity..it’s so dangerous having to take your eyes of the road, and cost cutting is ridiculous..no wonder they are losing sales
BMWs aren't my thing, for all sorts of reasons, but I cannot believe that a car costing fifty grand or so doesn't have height adjustment on the seat belts. My last two cars - a Mazda Three and a Volvo V Forty - have both had adjustable belts and they were both pretty much entry level models. I'm six feet tall and my wife is just over five so it's a must have in any car that we use.
Love Vicki’s reviews and interesting points made that others don’t often pick up on
Just plain ugly, worst BMW styling ever
Aren't the 19" wheels less comfortable? Most reviews will tell you to use smaller wheels for more comfort with EV's 🤔
All very well, but how long did you live with it for? A month? Two months? What! Only one day? Anyone can do that with an EV, before changing back to their good old ICE. It you really want to review an electric vehicle at least have the nous to do it after it has been your only transport for several weeks. Then you can tell us what it is REALLY like.
They have a knew mode for the discerning BMW driver to enjoy, when you need some grunt while overtaking they have installed South Pacific mode yes you guessed it its Happy torquey torquey happy torque
I TESTED all 4 cars, Audi e-tron, Skode enyaq, Bmw ix1 and Vw id4.......... went for the skoda enyaq coupe sportline plus 4 wheeldrive,it was a Amazing drive and Spec!
And iv been driving Bmw and vw cars all my life!!.
Fails to say put it into sport mode and recharge 5 minutes later.
Its hideous...
Has this BMW been fitted with direction indicators, or is it another expensive option?
I thought that all cars had sloping fronts these days for pedestrian safety, this one doesn’t seem to conform ?
It sounded very noisy in the cabin against the volume of your voice. I'm interested where your microphone was placed? - it sounded like you had a window lowered.
Horribly noisy.
Had one for a fortnight when my Model 3 was in the body shop. Good vision and typically light BMW accelerator pedal made it feel reasonably quick but tech felt very old fashioned. Motor control when parking was very crude and made reversing challenging. Extra £150 annual subscription for TACC a bit cheeky and crude manual seats were a disappointment. No wonder the Germans all buy Model Ys. 😮
I just bought the BMW i4, EV it's a week old today, 31.5.24 milage is totally incorrect, with an 85% charge giving me 170 miles way less than expected, door bins are totally rubbish, I have a kick plate, wow, my main concern are the vast amount of apps you have to mess about with, I have the Tech pack plus so have the head-up display which is useful, power is pretty awesome with rear-wheel drive, faster you go the milage will drop like a brick, there are some plus's but many zero's, things like the car knowing I'm turning a corner as I've put the indicator on it starts to brake itself, a bit unsettling, but also knowing there is a car in front it starts to brake. My previous car was the X1 iDrive 2.ltr twin-turbo, awesome engine but not as fast as the i4 to start the x1 would go to approx 150mph the i4 max speed is 118mph it's all the weight of the battery plus only 1 electric motor, overall I'm somewhat disappointed but it's still very early.
Great review as ever Vicki
Vicki is great , EV's are not !!!
Scrap
No frunk , no deal 🤣
Honestly drove the iconic5 and was ok with the steering expected the bmw xi to be miles ahead as the feel from my old x2 was superb i absolutely hated the x1 steering far to light honestly please try before you buy hope this helps
Get a family of four with no off street parking and deadlines to meet to review these battery cars. The reviews always seem to be a single person out on a jolly with all the time in the world.
If that’s you and you have a brain you won’t buy one. Personally I can’t ever imagine buying a house without parking.
@@paulmeynell8866lucky you
Where are the curtains
I would not touch one with a barge pole if you brake down nothing works even warning lights won’t work
You are the best! 👍
Good car compared with the alternative electric cars in its segment. Shame it is front wheel drive.
AWD is optional in the EV spec
It’s the front grill, it’s too big - it’s a front gorilla!!
As usual unfortunately, a hybrid that can’t tow didly squat, I need one that can pull 1800 kg !
I really appreciate your no -nonsense ''tell it like it is'' reviews.....looking forward to you getting your hands on the new Porsche Macan and Audi Q6 E-tron EV's....:-)
can't wait until all that software crashes.
Crab
An EV? Are you mad!
who buys this anyway!? some CEOs as third or fourth car in house
Better with a clockwork engine and a big key
Shocking road tyre noise??
That’s the sound of the battery degrading.
It's 540 litres for the boot
Only subscribing because of Vicki
Chinese tyres to go with the Chinese battery, this is Fugly.
Not getting 10-80 in 30min at home :)
You do not need to go in to the screen to change the items mentioned, including heating and ventilation. Before reviewing the car try reading the manual. Had an X1 for a year and all can be changed by voice commands which actually work and safer than using buttons
I got more distracted trying to remember the right voice commands than by just turning a knob.. or even going at the screen 😂
@@igormac88 Strange, you just talk to it, turn the heating to 19c or I am cold, turn on heated seat Nothing to remember tell it what you want.
What idiots would want to buy a milk float??
Even if I had the money, would not waste £50,000 on this vehicle.
Bollocks it’s bloody awful looking top of the range is £70 grand plus with a 150 miles per charge even less in winter with the lights on heater on rear screen heater on it will be lucky if it does 100 miles per charge
Can i have a dozen while there on special offfer😂
Never ever battery electic cars. Never means Never
White Elephants Of the future
Thumbs down from me. Gadget filled, smart device that's like the rest, cost too much, too much dependency on electronics and ugly... unlike the ever so attractive VBH.
That’s so funny , they need 10 seconds to prepare for boost😂😂😂 it also proves when you f****d up , it was pre meditated 😂😂😂
Just get a Tesla , insanely fast all the time😎
The German car industry is doomed and this is another nail in the coffin...This car just make me vomit and after looking at the price list I am off for ever. Where is the elctricity coming from after we start the war with Russia and all our Young man are gone?
Brilliant that you said 62 miles in 8 minutes. Easy to compare cars. 10-80 is good, BUT so many variables (battery size, efficiency, charge speed etc) it’s harder to compare.
I've owned about seven BMWs, 3 series, 4 series X5s and an M4. They were great good looking cars, but this is one ugly looking vehicle !
I dont like it
One pedal driving is the real e-driving. The Chinese brands usually don't have it and it's so annoying. Driving a BMW i3 these days.
An SUV with so much muck stuck on it that it needs a nose lift. What a monster of a pile of junk. EVs are just sh1te.
Nice to see VBH back her & Tiff made a great team, as for the hunk of Junk almost the worst car from BMW
So ugly imo. The car that is!
over, priced.
Definitely getting better - if the recharge data is true that is. This is becoming more tolerable. However... what's with the slab front?? Come on design teams.
Nice review, Vicki!
What a great looking car!
Next Friday, I’ll be collecting my brand new iX1 xdrive30 with M-package. Can’t wait 😃
Still have to wait until July -.-
Ugly car ,plus the hideous price and residual valve ,not for me
When are the ‘luxury’ car manufactures going to a) catch up with Tesla and BYD when electric b) cost the same as the petrol and diesel variants were pre Covid. I.e not a gouging stupid price that is not mainstream sellable c) have a cabin that’s designed for humans, I.e levers and buttons , d) last as long as a Mazda. Hmm, I don’t think it’s going to happen, might have to glue a bmw badge on a decent Japanese car , as all that’s left is branding . I’m keeping my Mercedes as there’s no car that satisfies my aforementioned requirements from any luxury brand
I can't stand SUV's (Stupid Ugly Vans) and the offerings from BMW are particularly hideous.🤮
That is OK, but why are you compelled to watch videos about them? Maybe it’s time to see a qualified medical professional.
@@michaels3003 Taking an interest in a review doesn't mean I have to like a car, Vicky is quite the legend in case you've been asleep the last 30 years and even a crap ugly car can have interesting features, doesn't make them pretty though does it? Lots of reasons, so perhaps it's you who requires help as you seem to be incredibly judgemental of others opinions that you do not even comprehend.
Rude comment. Each to their own. You’re not a happy Chappy in real life, eh? I guess @michels3003 saying to seek qualified medical professional help is not too far off 😉.
Ugh you’re even so attacky towards michaels3003. Why, man, why? Show some ❤ towards fellow commenters, bro! Save some of that negative tough talk for something that needs it, buddy… lots of ❤ , Kazz.
@@kazz8588 Attacky? what have you been smoking?
I defended my actions, that is the opposite of attack.
Massive heavy ev 😂 er no thanks id rather boil my head than blast £70k on a car thats worse than what i have now
This is frankly overpriced rubbish.
Like all BMWs.
My X1 has kick plates on the front door sills - odd your one didn’t.
It looks like a pretty basic model. Pretty basic sound system as well, the door panel speakers are blanked out here.
Very beautiful car
Extreemly dark in the rear, just about enough leg room for a child. The paint finnish looks like its still not finnished the boot space is more like a glovebox. 300 miles of driving from a charge is only possible if you only ever travell downhill with the sails up. Cant adjust the headrest or the seatbelt. I personally rejected mine when it arrived.
God that’s ugly (the car) …
Nonsense
not made to be an ev, front wheel drive, expensive why would anyone buy this ....the old i3 is so much better
Another heap of junk from the brand that was bottom of the J D Power survey. Ugly as hell, in keeping with the EV image and BMW driver image.
This is why Tesla's sales are down its because other manufacturers have now caught up but make a better looking car inside and out, Tesla's are a very typical US looking cars were in Europe we have a very different taste. Yes other manufacturers haven't the charging points dotted around with the ease of use like teslas nut they are charging points around now they just need to make them better, to me these charging points need to be built in current petrol station more or build electric stations that also sell food and have a person in hand so any problems can then be reported asap and also someone there for any sillyness by other drivers to other peoples cars etc
Precisely, Tesla's are ugly. That's also why Mercedes doesn't sell that well: ugly, but also expensive, so the Yanks can't be bothered. I personally am waiting until mid-next year with a new car purchase, maybe a bit later for when the new iX3 can be bought second-hand from the dealer. That will be a good-looking car!
Or, maybe, the Q6 e-tron.
Why is she talking silly
Why would you sit on the right side to drive....
Because this is the UK.
Because that's where the maker put the steering wheel. Not so easy from any other seat.
Batter cars are useless
It’s just ugly. BMW in my opinion have lost their way on styling.
No, they're lost their way, full stop! Bloody milk float 🙃
Ugly and 50 grand, ? What are BMW designers doing with the front of their cars,
A lot better looking than Tesla
Ugly? WTF ?
@@dtnjnq that’s not particularly high praise
No thankyou !
It is an abysmally ugly car.
Why do we need these horrible EV,s ?
We have plenty of oil at the moment and climate alarmism is a big scam.
Absolute load of rubbish. Steer well clear.
