This adaptive recuperation offers a direct and convenient way of exploring the exciting new world of electric vehicles. In any case, with the superior power and high efficiency of the innovative electric motor duo, almost any destination can be reached at any time with ease and a great deal of pleasure in electric driving. ■ Standard equipment  □ Optional equipment 1 Official data for power consumption and range were determined in accordance with the measuring procedures as defined by European Regulation (EU) 715/2007 in the applicable version and comply with same. In the event of ranges, data determined as per WLTP takes into account any optional equipment (available on the German market in this case). For vehicles that have been newly type approved since 1 January 2021, only the official data according to WLTP exist. For more information about NEDC and WLTP measuring procedures visit www.bmw.in/wltp RECUPERATION OPTIONS AT A GLANCE: Gear position B: A fixed maximum recuperation level delivers a no-holds-barred one-pedal feeling until you come to a standstill, all this without creeping. Gear position D: Recuperation here is adaptive, and can be configured by the driver using four settings (adaptive, high, medium, low). This allows you to slowly roll forward until you come to a standstill. The combined power consumption depends on the selected wheel and tyre sizes. Range depends on various factors, in particular: individual driving style, route characteristics, outside temperature, heating/air conditioning, pre-conditioning. 4 Electronically limited.

Form follows function: The new BMW iX follows this legendary design principle in every detail – with the aim of combining maximum range, efficiency and dynamics to create a unique driving experience. Aerodynamic refinements catch the eye even at first glance, such as the exterior mirrors integrated into the window well strips, flush embedded door handles, and lightweight Air Performance light-alloy wheels; even the concealed underbody has a flat, smooth design. Here everything is designed to glide through the air flowing past with the least resistance – with success: the new BMW iX achieves a sensational drag coefficient of cW = 0.25. You can even see these aerodynamics: vertical air curtains in the front apron guide the air flow to the wheels with the minimum of resistance, while the black streamflow sections in the D-pillar, characteristic of the BMW i, symbolise the optimised air flow around the passenger compartment. The fascination grows by the second: completely frameless doors, slim profiles and the silhouette with visible carbon structure in the entry and tailgate sections showcase the weight-optimised material mix of the body. Aluminium, carbon and high-strength steels are each used where they contribute to a reduction in weight, an improvement in the interior feel and handling as well as a greater range – and thus to an experience that can be enjoyed again and again with the greatest pleasure thanks to intelligent lightweight construction. The reduced styling draws attention to precisely designed details that emphasise the high-quality character and optimised aerodynamic characteristics of the new BMW iX. 14 | 15 Editorial: Extreme electromobility Editorial: Extreme electromobility and the power electronics must prove its worth. This is just one of the tests in the so-called hot-climate test, which is part of the comprehensive development and test program of the series development. In both the winter and heat tests, the prototypes are subjected to the stresses and strains of a complete vehicle life practically in fast motion. In extreme plus and minus temperatures, driving on ice, snow, desert sand and gravel, experienced BMW engineers use powerful measuring technology on board to register all the vehicle's responses to a wide range of weather conditions, road surfaces and other influences. At temperatures that would cause any mobile phone battery to discharge in no time at all, the powerful integrated cooling concept of the high-voltage battery proves its worth. The drive and chassis components are also tested and tuned to each other under extreme conditions. For hours, a new pre-series model is repeatedly Icy cold, shimmering heat: Before series launch, BMW tests its electric vehicles under the toughest conditions on the Arctic Circle in Sweden and in the South African Kalahari Desert to ensure optimum range and performance. Arjeplog, 56 kilometres south of the Arctic Circle. –26 °C. Barely bright, daylight disappears again on the grey horizon just a few hours later. A lonely place. Suddenly dry powder snow flies up. A new electric BMW prototype accelerates at high speed around the bend and over the snow-smooth road surface, which can only be assumed to be a road. Welcome to the BMW winter tests in the icy wasteland of Lapland, in the north of Sweden. Here, every BMW has to prove that it functions perfectly even under extreme conditions. The new electric BMW model rushes across the mirror-smooth ice surface of a kilometre-long lake, brake lights come on, a short swerve, the vehicle comes to a halt – to start again immediately, to accelerate, to brake. These are ideal conditions for testing all the components of the BMW eDrive technology in detail, because its components make special demands from BMW engineers: For example, the electrochemical processes within the high-voltage battery run differently depending on the ambient temperature – a fact that is being examined in great detail here to ensure the highest possible performance and reliability in the production vehicle. Change of scenery. Kalahari, Southern Africa. Unpaved sand, gravel and scree tracks. Extreme heat and solar radiation. Permanent dust formation. At the highest temperatures, the integrated cooling concept for the lithium-ion battery, the electric motor heated in the sun and then cooled down. The developers not only test the operability of the electrical systems, but also the temperature resistance of the materials in the interior. Nothing must creak or crackle here – neither at high nor low temperatures. The dustproofness of bonnets, doors and flaps is also extensively tested in the desert. When driving thousands of kilometres through dunes, savannahs and bush land, a new BMW may kick up a lot of dust – but it must not let any of it get inside. In the desert region in the northwest of South Africa, the drive and chassis components can be tested and tuned to each other under extreme conditions.

A stroke, a word, a gesture – really great ideas get rid of the complicated stuff so that what really matters can shine through. The new BMW iX with Sport package is the very embodiment of this ground-breaking approach. Characterised by sculptural and monolithic proportions, their exterior design immediately draws everyone's attention. Every detail merges with the sculpture, which is drawn by a few lines. The result is an aesthetic that provides a simple answer to the complex question of unforgettable design. “The BMW iX shows how we can give new technologies a very modern and emotional design.” Adrian van Hooydonk Head of BMW Group Design 26 | 27 Exterior design Exterior design 28 | 29 THE FRONT DESIGN OF THE NEW BMW iX. The face of a new movement: what drives the new BMW iX is more than its engine. Its design alone encapsulates the need to make mobility easier and more comfortable, and its front section, full of character, creates the sort of powerful presence and dynamics rarely seen in a vehicle. ■ Its monolithic and sculptural design principle is already expressed in the front, which has a strong character: at the centre is the vertical double kidney grille, whose closed characteristics signpost the innovative drive, as do accents on the indicated air inlets. A strongly three-dimensional bonnet stretches over it, flanked by particularly slender headlights – a front view that combines dynamism and powerful presence in an unseen way with a great deal of sensitivity. ■ The front design is particularly fascinatingly modern with the sports package. Closed triangular elements emphasise the confident width of the new BMW iX. The dynamic trapezoidal shape of the central design element additionally underlines the overall sporty effect. SCULPTURAL BONNET. ■ The sculpturally shaped bonnet surrounds the kidney, seamlessly encloses it at the top and continues it like a turbine underneath – which, in conjunction with the narrow headlights, gives the front end power and dynamism. MODERN HEADLIGHT DESIGN. ■ The narrowest headlights ever mass-produced by BMW symbolise the digital intelligence of the new BMW iX. The daytime running light has a twodimensional graphic design and underlines the monolithic design language of the vehicle. ■ Standard equipment  □ Optional equipment The availability of some equipment features and functions depends on engine variants or additional options.

Icon of a new self-confidence: Within clearly defined proportions, tightly modelled surfaces form a powerful vehicle body. A deliberate reduction of character lines and fully integrated flat door openers allow the design language of the new BMW iX to take maximum effect – little, but effective is the principle here. ■ The vehicle body tapers towards the rear, creating an elegant, dynamic silhouette. The wheel arches, on the other hand, are framed by striking rectangular contours, which as a self-confident graphic element cite the wheel arches of the first BMW X models. In between, an accent strip runs along the vehicle – a magnet for attention that also alludes to the innovative battery technology in the vehicle floor. □ The sports package makes the athletic character of the new BMW iX even more exciting. Thanks to the high-gloss black painted side skirts and exclusive 21" or 22" rims, the side view is excitingly different and even more dynamic. “The monolithic design with few but DOORS WITH FRAMELESS WINDOWS. ■ For the first time in a BMW X model, the doors are completely frameless. This creates a flush side graphic from the A to the D-pillar, provides maximum support to the new pared-down design, and gives you a fantastic feeling just stepping into the new BMW iX. INTEGRATED SIDE MIRRORS. ■ For the first time, side mirrors are integrated into the well strip: the mirror base seems to flow from the strip to border the side mirror from below. ELECTRIC DOOR OPENER. ■ Integrated over the entire surface and inlaid flat: Together with the frameless doors, the new electric door opener create an almost flush side view that is both modern and dynamically elegant. An accent strip around the handle shaft provides a high-quality and exclusive highlight. ■ Standard equipment  □ Optional equipment The availability of some equipment features and functions depends on engine variants or additional options.

The BMW iX is robust yet clean and elegant.” Domagoj Dukec BMW Design Head 30 | 31 Exterior design Exterior design DESIGN ELEMENTS IN TITANIUM BRONZE. □ How to draw attention: brackets in Titanium Bronze and folded down are a striking indicator of quality, accentuating the self-assured width of the vehicle when viewed from the rear. Combined with the Sport package, the diffuser insert at the rear gleams in high-gloss sporty Black. NARROW REAR LIGHTS. ■ The very narrow tail lights are made in one piece and therefore look very modern and clear. They extend far into the rear for maximum width effect. With their modern interpretation of the L-shape and a strongly contoured surface work, they have an unmistakable effect. Especially at night, the graphic lighting of the new BMW iX is a visual experience. THE REAR DESIGN OF THE NEW BMW iX AND BMW iX WITH SPORT PACKAGE. The striking, dynamic rear end gives the new BMW iX a fitting finish: Without distracting small details, the modelled, generous surface work appears particularly high-quality and expressive. ■ In the rear apron itself, colour-contrasting elements set a visual benchmark for the innovative drive concept of the new BMW iX: design that makes substance visible gives the new BMW iX its unforgettably modern appearance. ■ A flared shoulder area emphasises the self-assured stance of the new BMW iX. This effect is further underlined by the single-part rear lamps – the slimmest, most streamlined lamps ever to have been fitted by BMW. The tailgate extends across the entire width of the rear section – without any dividing lines – and gives the monolithic design principle a fascinating appearance. ■ The sheer pleasure of hitting the road is deeply ingrained in the design DNA of the new BMW iX: with the sports package, the bumper shows a fascinatingly independent geometry. Here, the diffuser elements are painted in body colour and underline the sporty, wide appearance of the rear. ■ Standard equipment  □ Optional equipment The availability of some equipment features and functions depends on engine variants or additional options.

At the same time, it follows a design philosophy that emphasises people and their need for convenience, clarity, and simplicity. How can these needs be reconciled? The answer lies in advanced “Shy Tech” technology, which displays features when needed but otherwise keeps them in the background. The interaction of high-tech and comfort creates a life-enhancing space, the guiding principle of the designers of the new BMW iX. Inspired by the trend of boutique hotels, the vehicle is designed both inside and out with the needs of the driver and passenger firmly in mind. These needs have also led to the development of completely new solutions for functional elements. “If you're looking to create a warm, intimate atmosphere, classic buttons, switches, and covers simply look out of place,” says Matthias Junghanns, Head of Interior Design BMW i. “The key concept here is Shy Tech, which describes design solutions that only reveal and allow certain technologies in the vehicle to be used when the driver and other occupants actually need them.” Whereas centre consoles in conventional vehicles tend to house a plethora of buttons and switches, a glance at the new BMW iX brings out harmonious surfaces and fascinating lines. Most functions are controlled digitally. A few elegantly designed buttons and switches serve as functional and visual highlights, for Shy Tech doesn't mean you miss out on features, but relies on a harmonious blend of aesthetics and smart functionality to provide them. The best example of this is the largest ever Sky Lounge panoramic glass sunroof ever fitted by BMW, featuring electrochromatic tinting. Its glass can be set to clear or opaque at the touch of a button. This means no more headliner, which not only gives the feature a particular elegant look, but also creates more headroom. This approach of putting the customer's needs first is followed not only in the interior but also extends to the exterior, for example, in the iconic BMW kidney grille. “Because the kidney grille no longer performs a radiator function due to the purely electric drive, it plays the role of an “intelligent surface” in the new BMW iX by seamlessly integrating sensors for assisted driving and defining the self-assured face of the vehicle,” explains Dirk Müller-Stolz, Head of Exterior Design BMW i. Even everyday functions show their best side: this is why the flap for refilling the screen wash water is located underneath the BMW emblem on the bonnet. The function here has also been integrated into the design in create a modern sculpture which makes the everyday routine easier for the driver. Shy Technology exterior and interior 36 | 37 Interior design THE INTERIOR DESIGN OF THE NEW BMW iX. Living space. Favourite place. Playground for the senses. Absolute well-being is the maxim that becomes reality in the new BMW iX through an innovative design philosophy. The inspiration from fine boutique hotels is as tangible as the endeavour to create an oasis of attentiveness and tranquillity in the midst of everyday life through the generosity of space and surfaces. Selected intelligent functions and intuitive technologies create fascinating design highlights, but otherwise blend discreetly with an interior that makes a clear statement: In this future, you and your needs will be the absolute focus. “We have designed the BMW iX as a mobile space to enhance your quality of life. In other words, a new 'favourite place' in which to relax and feel at ease.” Domagoj Dukec BMW Design Head Interior design 38 | 39 Interior design Interior design 40 | 41 MODERN FEEL-GOOD ATMOSPHERE IN THE NEW BMW iX AND BMW iX WITH SPORT PACKAGE. The frameless door opens. The fascination begins: from the moment you get in, the new BMW iX conveys a completely new sense of space, inviting you to drive actively and feel at ease. Light floods the interior through the large panorama glass roof. The result is an ambience inspired by modern boutique hotels. PANORAMA GLASS ROOF SKY LOUNGE. PLENTY OF LEGROOM. SEATS WITH INTEGRATED HEADRESTS. ■ A vision of light, air and space: The continuous panorama glass roof Sky Lounge floods the interior with sunlight and creates an inviting, friendly atmosphere that combines the interior and exterior. If required, the glass becomes opaque – without a sliding roof lining. ■ Plenty of space - even for the legs: With no central tunnel in the area under the instrument panel, the entire interior not only looks particularly spacious, but also offers plenty of legroom and even a comfortable way to get to the adjacent seat. ■ Lean back into a world of comfort and elegance: The highly comfortable seats of the new BMW iX are harmoniously crowned by an integrated headrest which, thanks to a black breakthrough, has a particularly modern and light appearance. In combination with the interior design 'Suite', the breakthrough in the fine colour of gold bronze sets a particularly attractive accent. LOUNGE-LIKE REAR. ■ Up to three people will find ample space and room on the wide seat. The absence of the central tunnel and a completely flat interior floor create increased legroom, making every journey even more comfortable. The pleasant upholstery with its distinctive diagonal quilting extends all the way to the doors, and the outer seats have integrated headrests - everything for a very special lounge feeling, even in the rear. ■ However, what the designers at BMW have left out has at least as great an effect: With no central tunnel, you are surrounded by a feeling of inviting freedom of movement even in the cockpit, which extends into the lounge-like rear. Buttons and operating elements have been reduced to the bare essentials and fit harmoniously into an interior that radiates peace, security and clarity. Discover your new favourite place: in the new BMW iX. ■ In a design of clear lines and generoussized surfaces, highlights such as the free-floating centre console, reminiscent of an elegant coffee table, or the virtually free-standing BMW Curved Display catch the eye. Highly comfortable, newly designed seats with slim proportions and their sustainable materiality further emphasise this ambience. ■ Standard equipment  □ Optional equipment The availability of some equipment features and functions depends on engine variants or additional options.

Inspiringly versatile interpretations for the future: In the new BMW iX, design and technology merge into an experience that is more than the sum of its parts. Even the intuitive interaction with the vehicle via speech, gestures or touch is a source of pleasure. Each control element, concentrated on its essential function, blends seamlessly into the overall concept – or creates wow-effects through a combination of well thought-out function and fascinating form, making every ride unique anew. ■ For example, the frameless BMW Curved Display stands almost free-floating on the slim and flat instrument panel like a work of art in a gallery. Together with the BMW Head-Up Display 1, which is harmoniously and almost invisibly integrated into the dashboard, it forms the visual focus: all information and functions of the new BMW iX flow into the display, orchestrated by the continuously developed BMW iDrive with the intelligent BMW Operating System 8. ■ But highlights such as the iconic steering wheel – the first time in BMW history that it has been designed in hexagonal form - or the innovative control centre in the free-standing centre console also make the principle of intelligent reduction visible and tangible in every detail. DISPLAY UNIT WITH BMW CURVED DISPLAY. ■ The BMW Curved Display floats almost freely on the spacious instrument panel. Consisting of the 14.9" Central Information Display and the instrument panel in 12.3", the one-piece unit is the next generation of the human-machine interface. The BMW Curved Display fascinates with its information display perfectly designed for the driver and ergonomically optimised, intuitive operation by voice, gesture or touch. HEXAGONAL STEERING WHEEL. CENTRE CONSOLE CONTROL PANEL. ■ A firm grip on the future: For the first time in the history of BMW, the new BMW iX is steered by a hexagonally shaped steering wheel. The racing-inspired contour of the steering wheel optimises entry and seating comfort as well as the view of the BMW Curved Display, thus visually signalling the start of a new era. ■ The centre console radiates a genuine feel-good atmosphere. It stands freely between the front seats and spreads the aura of an exquisite piece of furniture. Selected operating elements such as the toggle switch, the central control unit and the audio roller attract attention. The centre console looks particularly elegant in combination with the Clear & Bold equipment: Here your fingers glide gently over the finest open-pored walnut wood and many controls in cut crystal glass. NEWLY DESIGNED GEAR SELECTOR SWITCH. ■ A modern toggle switch replaces the classic gear selector switch and thus consistently follows the idea of intelligent reduction. All important and intelligently arranged control functions on the centre console can thus be operated intuitively and conveniently. ■ Standard equipment  □ Optional equipment 1 The information in the BMW Head-Up Display is not fully visible when viewed through polarised sunglasses.

Daniela Bohlinger, Head of Sustainability BMW Group Design, met Giulio Bonazzi, CEO of the Italian company Aquafil, at the site in Ljubljana. The plant produces ECONYL® yarns from recycled fishing nets and other nylon waste. The fishing nets, which Giulio Bonazzi spreads out across the large table in his conference room, are so clean that you could be forgiven for thinking they were new. “We use a multi-step process to clean the nets and bring them along with other nylon waste to our chemical plant, where they are broken down into their chemical components,” explains the Italian yarn manufacturer. The process yields pure ECONYL® nylon granules, which have precisely the same composition as standard crude-oil-based nylon. What's more, once the products manufactured from ECONYL® reach the end of their useful life, they are recycled, regenerated, and processed once more to create new products. “This can be repeated as many times as we like,” says Bonazzi. “That is what I call true sustainability.” BMW also uses ECONYL® yarns, for example, to produce material for headliners and floor mats in the BMW i3, the new BMW iX, and other models. For Daniela Bohlinger, Head of Sustainability in Design at BMW, this is the logical consequence of an increased awareness of environmental issues which plays a growing role at BMW. “It was important for us to be able to use a recycled material as a basis for these products. ECONYL® nylon, which is obtained from fishing nets and other nylon waste, has excellent properties for our purposes, comes in a great range of colours, and is popular with designers for its versatility, as it goes without saying that even a product made from recycled material has to look flawless and must have outstanding characteristics.” Yet the openness to recycled material displayed by luxury brands still has its limits, says Giulio Bonazzi, though these barriers are beginning to come down. Alongside BMW, examples of companies now using ECONYL® nylon for their collections include Prada and Gucci. Compared with crude oil-derived nylon, production of the recycled material emits 90% less CO2. Some of the discarded fishing nets are salvaged from the oceans by divers, “that is the most emotive part of this whole process,” says Giulio Bonazzi. “This is the main purpose of The Healthy Seas, an NGO set up by Aquafil and two other parties in 2013 to increase awareness of the problem of discarded fishing nets in the sea.” Yet many of the nets recycled by Bonazzi's company, Aquafil, in Slovenia, come from fish farms around the world. Aquafil collects these raw materials in two warehouses of 15,000 square metres each in Ljubljana. Here they are cleaned and strapped to pallets. Other nylon waste, including old carpets, fabric remnants, or plastic parts, is also stored in these facilities. All this is then regenerated in the chemical plant to produce brand-new ECONYL® nylon. The recycling process in the plant can be difficult to follow for the layperson, as most of the chemical separation and melting processes run unseen within a complex system of tanks and pipes running through the plant. First, we have to look at how waste is handled: fishing nets, for example, are chopped into small pieces and fed into a large tank via a moving conveyor. But at the next station one level up, where some of the material becomes visible outside the silver-coloured pipes, it is already in the form of snow-white plastic granules. Finally, the material is fed through spinneret plates, spun into an endless flat thread, and then wound onto large-scale spools. shows Daniela Bohlinger an example of the type of problems he has to contend with: “When we recycle the fish farming nets, we need to remove the copper oxide coating that is used to protect these nets against algal growth. Copper oxide is not compatible with nylon, as it has causes a lot of problems during the chemical process. Some years ago we developed a special method of removing copper oxide from fish farming nets. Another challenge relating to these nets is that of transport, as once a fish farming net reaches the end of its useful life, it is considered special hazardous waste, and the transport of waste in general is highly problematic. Another area of the plant packs very large white, jet black, red, and blue spools of yarn onto roller conveyors. As a pioneer of this recycling technology, Giulio Bonazzi operates the only plant in the world to manufacture ECONYL® nylon yarn from waste. His product can be recycled any number of times without affecting its quality, because it's a closed cycle. “Generally speaking, the automotive industry is also heading in this direction,” says Daniela Bohlinger. “Right from the start, we think carefully about the entire product lifecycle and increasingly use materials that can be recycled at their end of ife and used for other purposes.“ The investment in emission-free drivetrains and the economical use of materials will assist in the targets of the Paris Climate Treaty being reached. “Our CEO, Oliver Zipse, has made a firm commitment to meet these targets,” reiterates Daniela Bohlinger. “We are in the process of developing a clear strategy to achieve this ambitious goal by 2030.” Giulio Bonazzi has his own ideas about what it means to make such changes in the industry. “If I'd ever realised how difficult it would all be, I certainly wouldn't have gone through with it,” says the entrepreneur, who labels himself as a “crazy guy”, with a wry smile. On a tour of the factory, he For someone wishing to play an active part in ridding the world of pollutants, it is difficult to understand why the import of contaminated waste material into a country for recycling is not permitted. But in the end, recalls Giulio Bonazzi, he managed to persuade the authorities. The nets, still with their cupric coating, now lie here in the plant, ready for a second, more benign existence as a turquoise bathing suit, a white designer chair, or a stylish black floor mat in a BMW. 46 | 47 Sustainability Sustainability 48 | 49 CONSUME LITTLE, ACHIEVE EVERYTHING: SUSTAINABILITY. Sustainability is in the DNA of BMW, long before the driving pleasure begins. From the selection and processing of raw materials, through the actual production in our plants, to recycling: BMW is constantly developing electric mobility to keep the ecological footprint as small as possible. This makes driving all the more enjoyable – even for our future generations. SUPPLY CHAIN CONTROL. Sustainability starts in the mind and has a wide reach. At BMW, sustainability can be felt in all business areas – and involves much more than just saving CO2. From the procurement of raw materials to the production of electric vehicles and the recycling of a BMW, our goal is to follow the path towards a sustainable automotive future step by step. VEHICLE PRODUCTION. 100% REGENERATIVE ELECTRICITY FOR 100% DRIVING PLEASURE. Sun, wind and innovative technologies: By using green electricity from renewable sources, BMW also minimises the amount of emissions Sustainability, from the very first step. This is where it all begins: Raw materials. Even their procurement is an important component of sustainable production. That's why BMW is taking a very close look here: Are all human rights comprehensibly observed? Are environmental and social standards observed? Not only do we select our suppliers and producers particularly critically, we also become active ourselves in projects and measures to improve the working conditions of the people involved in the procurement of these raw materials. and CO2 when manufacturing vehicles. Three plants have made a start here – since 2020 BMW only uses electricity from renewable sources. Leipzig plant Shenyang plant, China Dingolfing plant The agile BMW i3 and the sporty BMW i8 are built in the halls. In front of it, four 190-metre-high wind turbines circle: They produce up to 28 gigawatts of electricity per hour, which is stored in a battery farm consisting of 700 recycled BMW i3 batteries. Where the flexible BMW iX3 sees the light of day, the sun shines down on the BMW Group's most powerful photovoltaic system and produces over 15 megawatts of electricity – more than enough to make a BMW i3 drive around 7 million kilometres. The largest BMW plant in Europe operates in a particularly sustainable manner: The company's own cogeneration plant generates electricity and heat at the same time and covers around 50 percent of energy requirements. The rest also comes 100 percent from renewable energy sources. Sustainability Sustainability THE MATERIAL CYCLE OF A BATTERY CELL. A battery cell goes through four stages of life in an electric vehicle: Development, use in the vehicle, second life, and battery recycling. We accompany battery cells on their journey from their development in the BMW Group Competence Centre to their recycling. Developing the battery cell technology of tomorrow: in the Battery Cell Competence Centre in Munich, the BMW Group searches for the ideal chemical composition for electrodes in a battery cell. We can compare the development process of a lithium-ion battery cell with baking a cake. The cell chemistry is the recipe, while the four ingredients are the four components: the cathode, anode, separator, and electrolyte. The battery cells are assembled into battery modules and the individual battery modules into batteries. The key phase in a battery's life now begins, namely its use in the vehicle. Even when the battery in the vehicle has reached the end of its useful life after many years, it is not the end for the batteries by any means. In the Leipzig plant, for example, BMW i3 batteries are used for the temporary storage of power. This second life use means that the battery cell can be used for another ten years on average as an energy store. After the battery cells are shredded, their raw materials can be recycled. The BMW Group develops the recycling of secondary raw materials in the Battery Cell Competence Centre. The battery cell's lifecycle is then complete, ready to begin again.

At present, the largest European BMW production site assembles around 1,300 vehicles daily, but the areas outside the halls are also a hive of activity and production with up to 500,000 bees producing honey and adding to the location's rich biodiversity. The north side of the BMW Group Plant Dingolfing on a sunny morning: vehicles constantly accelerating, changing gears in a split second, decelerating – this is the plant's test track, used daily to test the latest BMW models. Ears that are attuned to the sound can pick out petrol and diesel models. Now and then a low hum can be heard, combined with tread noise, as a pre-series model of the fully electric BMW iX is put through its paces. The groundbreaking Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) will roll off the assembly lines here from 2021. In contrast, the scene on the east side of the premises is quite idyllic, a biotope created by BMW itself. Aquatic plants, flowering shrubs, and an integrated stone plateau create the perfect conditions for insects 13 bee colonies support biodiversity at the site, and produce delicious honey. such as dragonflies and pond skaters to thrive. Frogs, newts, slow worms, and grass snakes also feel at home in this ideal habitat for a vast range of organisms. While around 17,000 employees work in the plant to assemble a range of models from the BMW 3 Series to the 8 Series, up to another half a million “workers” inhabit the grounds outside, as 13 species of bee have made their home on the company premises, all watched over by a BMW employee, an expert who also sits on the management committee of the Dingolfing Beekeepers' Association. The bee colonies are just one of the many steps taken by BMW to support biodiversity. Scores of fruit trees have been planted, while grassed areas have been transformed into flower beds and wildflower meadows. In total, 100 nesting boxes and insect A burning passion for beekeeping: Stefan Fleischmann, Environmental Officer in the paint shop at the BMW Group Plant Dingolfing, established the bee colony at the site. the building's climate in both summer and winter: Evaporation on warm days produces a cooling effect, while in cold weather, the improved insulation has a positive impact on energy efficiency. hotels have been added. These were presented to the Dingolfing plant by Landshuter Werkstätten and make a vital contribution to the success of this environmental project. Yet it is not only insects and small birds that take advantage of this new habitat, as perches for birds of prey are also dotted around the grounds. Buzzards, falcons, and hawks use the five metre high structures as a spot to which they can retreat and observe their prey. This helps maintain a well-balanced food chain. The basic concept of existing in harmony with nature is evident in many places around the company premises. Green roof systems adorn a number of buildings. Planted with flowering stonecrop, they offer more than just a home for insects. This greening helps during heavy rain, as the rainwater is absorbed by the roof's substrate layer. It also helps temper The BMW Group Plant Dingolfing is therefore not only a pioneer of future technologies and future-proof workplaces with the new fully electric BMW iX, but is also creating ecological habitats on the site. This is how the Lower Bavarian plant continues not only to honour its commitment to sustainable use of energy, water, and air, but also to increased biodiversity. The bees are of course oblivious to all this as they fly from flower to flower, producing their honey from the “Dingolfing Hive”. 52 | 53 Technical values 54 | 55 xDrive40 System output kW/(hp) System torque Nm 1058 Communication 240 / (326) 630 1695 High-voltage battery and charge data Net HV battery capacity 1006 BMW iX Technical values kWh Charging time (AC 0-100%)2 h Charging time (DC 10-80%)2 min 71 7.25 31 Basic data Type of drive – All-wheel Transmission type – Automatic 1679 Performance Top speed km/h 0–100 km/h s 2007 906 1967 3000 1047 4953 6.1 Consumption and range WLTP3, 5 ▶ combined electric consumption4, 8 ▶ Electric range 6, 8 kWh/100 km 19.4–22.5 km 425–372 – Front: 255/50 R21 Rear: 255/50 R21 1567 Standard wheels 1527 Wheels/tyres 1709 2230 The dimensions in the technical drawing are in millimetres and may vary depending on the model and equipment. 1 2 3 4 The figures quoted are based on a driver weight of 75 kg.
