BMW’s iX doesn’t have a ton of competition at the moment. The Audi e-tron<\/a> and Tesla Model X<\/a> are both older models and the Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV isn’t here yet. The Cadillac Lyriq<\/a> will be its most dangerous competitor. However, there is one upcoming SUV that BMW should seriously worry about\u2014the Rivian R1S.<\/p>\n The Rivian R1S is the SUV version of the Rivian R1T<\/a> pickup truck. While we haven’t driven the R1T just yet, we know several people who have and we’ve yet to hear a bad word about it. However, being a pickup truck, the R1T isn’t a competitor for any BMW to worry about. But the R1S is an SUV that’s very similar in size to the iX (the R1S is a few inches longer, wider, and taller), packs even more range, far more power, and is priced similarly, too.<\/p>\n
