Head to head
BMW iX vs Polestar 3
A side-by-side comparison of published UK specifications, including WLTP range figures.
The verdict
Both cars quote the same 340-mile WLTP range, so range alone won't separate them. The BMW iX is the better fit for families needing extra boot space, with 500 litres and 5 seats versus 484 litres and 5 in the Polestar 3. On price the Polestar 3 starts about £2,000 lower, while the quicker of the two to 60mph is the Polestar 3 at 4.7s.
On the measured specifications below, the BMW iX leads in 2 areas and the Polestar 3 in 2.
