BMW iX vs Audi e-tron

Battle of the luxury electric SUVs

The BMW iX is one of the latest models to join the market for luxury electric SUVs, and has impressed for the way it drives and its sumptuous, hi-tech interior. But how does it compare with the Audi e-tron, which went on sale in 2018 and is in itself an incredibly lavish electric SUV?

In this CarGurus UK review, Vicky Parrott tests the two cars back-to-back to see how they compare for space, comfort, technology, driving dynamics and efficiency. There's a clear winner, but is it the Audi or the BMW? And which would you take given the choice?
