The xDrive50 and the M60 carry \u003cstrong\u003e105.2 kWh usable\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is more than three Nissan Leafs, and every iX accepts \u003cstrong\u003e11 kW\u003c\/strong\u003e on AC as standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat size changes the character of home charging. On a British single-phase supply, which gives 7.4 kW, a 105.2 kWh iX takes about \u003cstrong\u003e16 hours\u003c\/strong\u003e from empty. There is no cheap-rate window that long. It is the one car in our range where a three-phase supply stops being a nice extra and starts changing how you live with the vehicle, because it takes the same charge down to about 10 hours 45 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn practice most iX owners never see an empty battery, and that is the sensible approach. Plugging in nightly from 40 or 50 percent turns a 16 hour problem into a 7 hour one that fits comfortably inside off-peak hours.

Our 22 kW three-phase cable cannot take an iX past its own 11 kW, but on a genuine three-phase supply that 11 kW is worth having on a battery this large. No BMW iX of this generation was offered with a 22 kW onboard charger, so 11 kW is the ceiling either way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 16A cable is simply not viable here. At 3.7 kW an xDrive50 needs \u003cstrong\u003e32 hours 15 minutes\u003c\/strong\u003e from empty, which is a day and a third, and returns about 13 miles of range an hour. Even the smaller xDrive40 takes 21 hours 45 minutes.

It carries the full 7.4 kW a house can supply, and on a battery this large getting every watt matters more than on any other car we cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow long does a BMW iX take to charge at home?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout 16 hours from empty for a 105.2 kWh BMW iX xDrive50 or M60, and about 10 hours 45 minutes for the 71 kWh xDrive40, both on a 7.4 kW wallbox. No off-peak window covers the larger figure, which is why most owners charge nightly from part full rather than running the battery down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs a three-phase cable worth it on a BMW iX?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore so than on almost any car, provided you can reach a genuine three-phase supply. It takes a 105.2 kWh BMW iX from about 16 hours to 10 hours 45 minutes, which is the difference between an overnight charge and one that is still running at lunchtime. At a normal house it delivers 7.4 kW, exactly as the 32A single-phase cable does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan a BMW iX use a 22kW onboard charger?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot on this generation. Every BMW iX xDrive40, xDrive50 and M60 has an 11 kW onboard charger as standard and there was no 22 kW option on UK cars, so the car caps at 11 kW even on a three-phase supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs a 16A cable ever sensible on a BMW iX?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. A 16A cable holds a BMW iX at 3.7 kW, which means 32 hours 15 minutes from empty on the big battery and about 13 miles of range recovered per hour. On a car of this size the saving against a 32A cable is repaid within weeks of charging at off-peak rates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat cable length works for a BMW iX?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10m, and it is not a close call. The iX is nearly five metres long and over two metres wide including mirrors, so it dominates a driveway and the charging flap ends up a long way from most wall units. 5m only makes sense inside a garage where the car parks against the same wall as the charger every time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EV Cable Shop","offers":[{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 16amp (3.6kW)","offer_id":53207690477915,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-10M-16AMP-BMW-IX","price":1419.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":53207690510683,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-10M-32AMP-BMW-IX","price":1618.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 32amp - 3 Phase (22kW)","offer_id":53207690543451,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-10M-32AMP(3P)-BMW-IX","price":1835.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 15M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":53207690576219,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-15M-32AMP-BMW-IX","price":2485.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 20M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":53207690608987,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-20M-32AMP-BMW-IX","price":3154.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 16amp (3.6kW)","offer_id":53207690641755,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-5M-16AMP-BMW-IX","price":1130.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":53207690674523,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-5M-32AMP-BMW-IX","price":1247.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 32amp - 3 Phase (22kW)","offer_id":53207690707291,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-5M-32AMP(3P)-BMW-IX","price":1473.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to 3 Pin Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 6amp – 12amp Adjustable (2.3kW)","offer_id":53207690740059,"sku":"EVPOW-3P-T2-10M-10AMP-BMW-IX-V2","price":2106.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to 3 Pin Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 6amp – 10amp Adjustable (2.3kW)","offer_id":53207690772827,"sku":"EVPOW-3P-T2-5M-10AMP-BMW-IX-V5","price":1699.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to 3 Pin Charging Cable \/ 15M \/ 6amp – 12amp Adjustable (2.3kW)","offer_id":53999780495707,"sku":"EVPOW-3P-T2-15M-10AMP-BMW-IX-V2","price":2521.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0952\/3888\/1627\/files\/bf07456aad4eef5bc5c855cf326e5086.jpg?v=1780280679","url":"https:\/\/trandnova.com\/en-cn\/products\/bmw-ix-charging-cable","provider":"Trand Nova","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
