What didn't you like of the iX3? The 2 people I know who bought one shifted them pretty quickly somehow.

Great news. Send photos and tell us your driving experience when it arrives since there is no review on 30e version

It's weird to me that they name the paint colors differently for different markets. Fire red is the same as vegas red in the US right?

Maybe the name of the color was already used by another car brand in the respective market.

Do you have any photos?

Had mine two weeks now and I love it. It’s a great drive. Love the interior which is black and love the outside which is fire red.

Great looking car would recommend.

Did you get a chance to check the mileage on electric mode, they said around 88km for the battery range.

Yes when I charged it, it went up to 50mile but should get more in the summer when the weather is warmer.

Thanks for the info. That range is okay for the daily commute. Do you have any likes/dislikes so far?

The only thing I don’t like is everything has to be done by the idrive screen.
