If it looks close to that then we’re in for a treat.

These renders look too bulky. I think previous ones are much more realistic, not that these aren’t, but you get the idea.

Did they just slap a 1:1 iX3 face on it?

They should follow through with the “X” bars. Make it stand out more than the iX3 visually.

I don’t know how to explain it properly but the overall mass and the wheels don’t look proportionate. Something looks a bit off to me. Maybe I’m tripping I don’t know

Not feeling the renders tbh. Looks like a larger iX3 but with uglier design details.

Hopefully this is just the render itself.

iX5 will replace the iX?

[SCOTT27]

Yes.

 

[Bradman]

When can we expect the first X6 prototypes?

I guess it will, but they will likely coexist for a few years considering the iX has two years left in a normal production cycle. And there's no reason to cut its life short.

I don’t know how to explain it properly but the overall mass and the wheels don’t look proportionate.

Maybe because they went for action shots. The suspension is hard at work in these pics.
The grille however looks absolutely identical to the iX3 grille to me though, and I find it hard to believe that will be the case.

No. We try to follow the lines of spy prototypes. Some renders turned out closer to the final product, others didn't. Considering how difficult it is to do this, our rendering guy is pretty good.
