BMW iX5: Record 147.8 kWh Battery and 800 km Range on an Old Platform

Original: 147.8 kWh、3,000 公斤、BMW 史上最大電池,iX5 用舊底盤裝進了新世代規格

BMW's iX5 SUV packs a record 147.8 kWh battery targeting 800 km range, but retains the older CLAR platform.

BMW has revealed the iX5 pure-electric SUV with a record-breaking 147.8 kWh battery and a projected range exceeding 800 kilometers. To preserve production flexibility during the industry's EV transition, BMW kept the existing CLAR platform rather than moving to a next-generation EV architecture. The decision results in a vehicle weighing approximately 3,000 kg, posing significant engineering challenges for handling and dynamics.

BMW has unveiled the iX5, a pure-electric SUV carrying the largest battery pack in the brand's history at 147.8 kWh. The headline claim is a projected driving range of over 800 kilometers on a single charge — a figure that, if validated in real-world conditions, would place the iX5 among the longest-range large luxury electric vehicles on the market and directly target range anxiety among premium SUV buyers.
