- The BMW iX5 is coming soon.
- It will pack one of the largest battery packs in its segment.
- The electric SUV will get some Neue Klasse technology like the new i7, but still ride on the aging Cluster Architecture.
BMW is going big with the new iX5 due out soon. Very big. The electric SUV will pack 144 kilowatt-hours of usable battery capacity for the U.S. market and 141 kWh for Europe, the automaker said Monday. That means the iX5 xDrive 60 will boast the largest battery ever installed in an electric BMW.
