I'd consider this vehicle. LWB is attractive. RWD not a problem in Houston. I'd order it this way, even if AWD was an option--just like I'd "delete" a sunroof, if possible. Absolutely useless in Houston sun and humidity 10 months of the year. BUT--price will be an issue. If it's the same price as e-Tron or EQC, I'll give it a quick pass. Tesla, because of Model S, has more brand cachet in Houston than BMW, with it's volumes of X3 and 3-series around here. An iX3 won't help this image problem. A Tesla Model Y will eat it's lunch in the "not quite prestige" market and it won't even be competing for the same buyers as the EQC and e-Tron. It needs to be priced at the Model3/Model Y price points to have a chance and at that price point it would be top of my list.
