The larger iX M60 electric SUV has a dual-motor all-wheel drive setup that produces 455kW and 1100Nm, though the specifics of the powertrain are unknown.

According to rumors, BMW will stop producing the X4 with ICEs after the current generation is finished, but the smaller X2 will continue to be powered by ICEs for at least one more generation.
