A 2025 BMW iX was the last thing I expected to see at Moon Valley Nursery. This BMW is stunning. The finish is sort of a matte charcoal.

The BMW iX represents a new futuristic stance. With an intelligent kidney grille, aerodynamic enhancements, and expansive size, this all-electric SUV exudes daring, innovative style from the inside out.
Slim twin headlights are an electric eye-catcher. The bold-looking front kidney grille doubles as an intelligence panel with sensor technology.
When the BMW iX EV SUV debuted for the 2022 model year it looked like the future, and going into 2025 this crossover still smacks of modernity and tech. Roughly the same size as the mid-size BMW X5 SUV, the iX features a spacious, chic cabin with seating for five. A dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrain makes 516 horsepower in the xDrive50 model and up to 610 in the performance-oriented M60. Both lit up our test track with quick acceleration times and also managed a noteworthy 290-mile result in our real-world highway range testing. That number beats chief EV rivals such as the Audi Q8 e-tron and the Rivian R1S, making the BMW more road-trip friendly than those SUVs. The iX's cross-country capability is further enhanced with an optional hands-free driving feature intended to reduce driver fatigue on long journeys. While the iX's exterior styling is divisive, there's no arguing that its stylish cabin is comfortable and well-connected, its performance is strong, and its over-the-road behavior refined. That is as it should be for an EV in this upscale price class.
I was outside earlier taking pix of my cars and something dawned on me. When I was younger I used to see these older guys with everything I wanted. They had the wife, the kids, the good job, the house, and most importantly to me at the time, the cool cars. The realization that I'm now that guy didn't escape me. And it's not that I have so much, but that I have what I want. I'm happy. It kinda' sucks that for most (including me) it takes a lifetime to achieve these things, but I guess it's not how fast you get there, but that you arrive.
