Forum posters and iX owners bemoan the cupholder situation. We asked our iX correspondent for his take on the SUV's ergonomics, including the maligned drink-holders.

Welcome back to the long-term test of my 2024 BMW iX xDrive50, an all-electric SUV that I bought with my own money so you can be sure I'm shooting straight. In previous updates, we've talked about range, road-tripping and software. After that last update, I got a request on social media to provide some thoughts on the machine's ergonomics, particularly regarding the iX's questionable cupholder placement. So today, we'll focus on all that.

As soon as I get a little free time, I'll see if I can't whip up something similar to the latter of those two on my 3D printer. BMW's thoughtfully put a USB-C port right there as well, so if you do splurge on a spendy tablet holder, you won't have to worry about your kids tripping over charging cables when they make a hasty exit in the drop off lane.
