Hi All,
Appreciate your view on below topics, I am looking to buy my first EV 2023 Demo version of ix3 but, confused on various aspects.

Battery depletion over the time, in last 2-3 years have you experienced significant drop in range or there any other issues with battery please
Value of BMW ix3 seems to be dropping quite significantly around $30-40k for an year old demo car, is this usual or something to worry about? - Understand, I am not buying a financial investment just a car.

BMW X3 xDRIVE30e the plug-in model is significantly costing more than full EV is there a reason?

So, confused with all the details and worried about depreciation, battery depletion over the time but, wondering overall if you're happy with ix3's so far from reliability perspective?

xDrive means 4 wheel drive, iX3 is 2 wheel drive. 4WD is more expensive.

Very happy with the car!!!

Appreciate your response. Make sense now regards xDrive PHEV price.

As far as I know, at least in France when I went to the BMW dealer this summer, they told me they offer a huge discount on a brand new model, they would go from 82K€ to 64,5K€ if I ordered a new Impressive model.

Don't know if this is limited to France, but that would explain the price drop for used ones. I went the used route, definitely worth it, with 3 years warranty (bought it thru the BMW Premium Selection with still one year original manufacturer warranty).
