Still no down payment, the BMX iX1 drops to €390 per month!

The months go by and are not alike for the BMW iX1, which benefits from a new unbeatable lease offer.

The BMW iX1 eDrive20 with 204 hp is available to order at a price of €46,900 and can therefore benefit from the ecological bonus because it is produced in Germany. We can consider that this reduces its price to €44,900 and be satisfied with it, or we can try to use this benefit more intelligently, for example to reduce the first payment on a long-term rental offer!

Thanks to this bonus, BMW is offering the iX1 eDrive20 M Sport in Long-Term Rental (LLD) over 48 months and for 40,000 km with 47 payments of €390 preceded by an initial larger payment of… €390! Use your calculator and you’ll see that you pay €18,720 over 4 years for a vehicle valued at €44,900 outright, with the bonus deducted. At the end of the lease period, you’ll return the vehicle after spending just under 42% of the new car’s value. Knowing that electric vehicles currently depreciate on average by 45% after 3 years, this is an excellent deal.

One caveat, however: you need to be aware that you’re committing to an iX1 that is no longer a new model for four years. But there are worse commitments, admit it.

A real BMW

For this price, you’re not getting a downgraded model with the sporty M Sport finish, our favorite in the German manufacturer’s catalog. The 204 horsepower (150 kW) power is sufficient thanks to instant torque, and the range exceeds 400 km in WLTP cycle, even reaching 475 km in urban use. Acceleration will still be sufficient for daily driving, with 0 to 100 km/h in 8.6 seconds, and a maximum speed limited to 170 km/h. As for charging speed… the eDrive20 accepts up to 130 kW in DC current, allowing you to recover from 10 to 80% in 29 minutes, and 11 kW in AC.

This model naturally benefits from all the qualities that define a BMW: craftsmanship, comfort, reliability,… The iX1 also comes standard with satellite navigation, dual-zone climate control, a rearview camera, and a very large digital screen of nearly 21 inches diagonally.
