The colour-changing ability will allegedly be able to completely alter the exterior hue at the touch of a button. We're curious to see how dramatic this effect is.
At this time, there aren't any other details about the theater-like experience in the cabin.
According to recent rumours, the iX M60 will be all-wheel drive and will produce a total of around 600 bhp (447 kilowatts) or 560 bhp (418 kW). This output will get the EV is 62 miles per hour (0-100 kilometres per hour) in about 4.0 seconds. The same setup will be in the upcoming Rolls-Royce Spectre electric coupe.
