Engine power and kerb weight are registration-weighted averages of the BMW iX1 registered in the EU/EEA in 2025 (61,883 cars), engine power from 25 countries, kerb weight from 28 countries. Source: EEA COâ‚‚ monitoring (CC BY 4.0).

Engine power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the power of the combustion engine, not the system power, and for electric cars it can differ from the peak power the manufacturer advertises.
