After four years of development work, the BMW iX5 Hydrogen vehicle and development project is entering its critical next phase.<br /><br />The BMW iX5 Hydrogen developed based on the current BMW X5 was first unveiled as a concept at the IAA show in 2019. Initial prototypes were then made available at the IAA Mobility 2021 for visitors to experience in action as shuttle vehicles.<br /><br />As for the engine and performance, In combination with a highly integrated drive unit using fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology at the rear axle and a powerful battery with lithium-ion technology developed especially for this vehicle, the powertrain channels maximum output of 295kW (401 hp) on the road.<br /><br />In coasting overrun and braking phases, the motor also serves as a generator, feeding energy back into a power battery.<br /><br />It can accelerate from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in less than 6 seconds and has a top speed of over 180 km/h (112 mph).<br /><br />The hydrogen needed to supply the fuel cell is stored in two 700-bar tanks made of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP).<br /><br />Together these hold almost six kilograms of hydrogen, enough to give the BMW iX5 Hydrogen a range of 504 km (313 miles) in the WLTP cycle.<br /><br />Filling up the hydrogen tanks only takes three to four minutes – so the BMW iX5 Hydrogen can also provide the driving pleasure for which BMW is renowned over long distances, with just a few, short stops along the way.<br /><br />The BMW iX5 Hydrogen is being built in the BMW Group’s pilot plant at its Research and Innovation Centre in Munich.<br /><br />2023 BMW iX5 Hydrogen<br />topspeed369gt<br /><br />Thank you #BMW <br /><br />What are your thoughts on this amazing SUV?
