Like the R1T pickup truck on which it’s based, the R1S’ interior is utilitarian, with many pockets and compartments for storage. The Rivian’s interior, though nicely appointed, isn’t on the same level as the BMW’s. Both systems have a fairly easy pairing procedure, which then displays the phone’s interface on the digital instrument screen.

One thing BMW’s operating system does exceptionally well is Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration. It features a mix of unorthodox but high-quality materials and a futuristic design that looks straight out of “Minority Report.” Two wide screens join seamlessly to form the instrument panel and central display, which is operated via touchscreen or the iDrive control knob. INTERIOR AND TECH No matter what you think of the outside, most will agree that the BMW iX’s interior is stunning. That makes the R1S one of the quickest SUVs Edmunds has ever tested, electric or otherwise. The Rivian is even quicker, taking just 3.4 seconds to reach the same speed. In Edmunds’ testing, an iX accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds, which is quicker than other electric SUVs such as the Audi e-tron and Jaguar I-Pace. A dual-motor all-wheel-drive version arrives later this year with a still potent 600 horsepower on tap. Power figures for the Rivian R1S are even more extreme, with four motors producing an outlandish 835 horsepower and 938 lb-ft of torque. The BMW iX packs two electric motors, one driving each axle, that produce 516 horsepower in standard form or 610 horsepower in M60 trim. PERFORMANCE Both SUVs provide obscene amounts of power. Which one is the best for your money? The vehicle experts at Edmunds compare both to find out. But the BMW iX and Rivian R1S are two electric SUVs that require no compromise, combining stellar performance and long-distance capability with plenty of convenience and tech features. You might’ve found a car possessing two of those attributes but rarely all of the above. Buying an electric vehicle used to mean choosing from battery range, performance, utility or luxury.
