Trunk dimensions BMW iX

The BMW iX 2022 offers a trunk with a volume of about 17.7 cu ft, which can be expanded up to 61.8 cu ft when the rear seats are folded down.

The rear bench is split in a 40:20:40 ratio, allowing flexibility when transporting luggage. The interior is designed in a modern style, with high-quality materials and a clear, functional layout.

The trunk dimensions vary within the model range, but the shape mostly remains rectangular, optimizing usability. The loading edge is relatively low, which facilitates loading and unloading. Practical features such as tie-down hooks and a variable loading floor are also present to make the trunk versatile.

Model Information

The BMW iX is a fully electric SUV that was launched in 2021. It represents the latest generation of BMW electric mobility and combines innovative technology with a modern design.

The iX offers a range of up to 600 km (WLTP) and is equipped with advanced driver assistance systems. The interior is high-quality and features a digital cockpit that enhances driving comfort and user-friendliness.

Variants of the Same Series

The BMW iX is offered as a standalone model and is not comparable with other variants such as sedans or convertibles in the BMW portfolio. The i3 and i4 models are also electric but differ in body style and dimensions. The iX is specifically designed as an SUV, which distinguishes it from these other models.

Model Year Differences

Since the BMW iX has been on the market since 2021, there are no significant model changes so far that affect body or trunk dimensions. Future model years may see adjustments based on technological developments or customer feedback. Current information on such changes is not available at this time.

Direct Competitors

Direct competitors of the BMW iX include models like the Audi e-tron and the Mercedes-Benz EQC. The Audi e-tron offers a trunk volume of about 23.3 cu ft, while the EQC comes in at 17.7 cu ft.

Compared to the iX, the e-tron thus has a larger trunk, which might be important for buyers needing a lot of cargo space. The EQC offers a similar volume to the iX, but interior layouts and usability vary.

More Affordable Alternatives

More affordable alternatives with similar trunk dimensions are the Skoda Enyaq iV and the Hyundai Ioniq 5. The Skoda Enyaq iV offers a trunk volume of 20.7 cu ft, making it an attractive option for buyers seeking good value for money.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 has a volume of about 18.6 cu ft. Both models are generally less expensive than the BMW iX but offer similar transport capabilities.

Trunk Volume

The BMW iX (2025) has a manufacturer trunk volume of 17.7 cu ft. This corresponds to about +19.05% compared to an average car but accounts for only around 6% of the total vehicle volume (−0.5 percentage points compared to the average).

Practical detailed values from tests and everyday measurements:

  • With trunk cover: 13.9 cu ft (somewhat tight for an upper mid-size SUV).
  • Without cover: 20 cu ft.
  • Up to the window sill with folded rear seats: 28.6 cu ft.
  • Maximum behind the front seats: 53.7 cu ft.
  • Additional storage under the trunk floor: 2.6 cu ft (practical for charging cables).
  • The trunk can hold up to a dozen beverage crates.

Implications for practice: The nominal 17.7 cu ft is sufficient for many everyday cases, but significantly greater flexibility arises only by removing the cover and folding down the rear seats.

For family, shopping, or furniture transport, the ability to use up to 53.7 cu ft is relevant; however, those who regularly transport a lot of luggage under the cover will face limitations with 13.9 cu ft.

Vehicle Size and Parking Friendliness

The iX measures 195.7 in length, 77.6 in width, and 66.9 in height. Compared to an average car, it is 16.1 in longer (8.9%), 4.7 in wider (6.4%), and 5.1 in taller (8.4%).

Consequences:

  • The width of 77.6 in makes parking in tight spaces more challenging — the fact sheet states the vehicle is 20.9 in narrower than a normal parking space, indicating tight side clearance.
  • With almost 5 meters in length and nearly 2 meters in width, the iX is more a vehicle that requires generous parking spaces or garages; tight underground garages or narrow spots are less comfortable.
  • The height is positive for loading and unloading (large opening) but can limit maneuverability in underground garages together with the width.

Trunk Usability and Flexibility

The practical features are mixed:

  • Large, electrically opening tailgate with large opening and good cargo area lighting.
  • The trunk floor is level with the loading edge, simplifying sliding items in.
  • However, the loading edge is quite high at 30.3 in, making lifting heavy loads inconvenient.
  • The tailgate is high enough that people about 1.90 m tall can stand underneath without hitting their heads — watch out for the protruding lock hook and side parts of the tailgate.
  • The rear seatbacks are three-part and electrically foldable from the trunk. The hinge points are chosen so that rear seat belts are not pinched when folding — especially practical when loading full shopping carts.
  • Underfloor compartment (2.6 cu ft) for cables and small items increases everyday usability.

Practical impact: For occasional transport of large items, the iX is very flexible (up to 53.7 cu ft). For heavy or bulky loads, the high loading edge (30.3 in) complicates handling. The electric, generous opening and flush loading floor design make loading overall easier.

General Model Information

Familiarity: The BMW iX is BMW’s electric SUV flagship of the newer generation and positioned in the upper mid-size/premium segment.

Special Features: Electric drive, electric tailgate, large luggage opening, and thoughtful interior configurations (three-part, electrically foldable rear seatbacks, underfloor storage).

Particularities: Wide roof pillars and non-retractable headrests noticeably limit rear visibility; this affects maneuvering and reversing. High loading edge (30.3 in) despite flush loading floor; note tailgate’s protruding construction parts (lock hook).

Price-Performance Ratio: Specific prices are not included in the fact sheet.

Due to positioning and equipment, the iX is a premium model with a corresponding price level — the pronounced functionality (flexible loading options, premium equipment) justifies this segment, while limitations in base trunk height (13.9 cu ft under cover) and rear visibility remain relevant trade-offs.

Competitor Models: Competitors are other premium electric SUVs in the upper segment (e.g., models from Audi, Mercedes, and Tesla). Key comparison points are trunk flexibility, loading height, all-around visibility, and interior layout.

Brief conclusion: The iX offers flexible and generous cargo space options that can be greatly expanded by removing the cover and folding the seats.

For users frequently handling heavy or often low-to-floor loads, the high loading edge is a disadvantage; for large cargo and long-distance needs, the model scores with much variability and useful details like the 75-l underfloor compartment and the electric three-part folding function.
