Eli and Joe Hountondji are known for their maximum performance, spectacular driving manoeuvres and adrenaline-pumping drifts. They are also known as the Red Bull Driftbrothers and have been among the top drivers in the action-packed world of motorsport for years, where hot tires and winding asphalt are particularly important. But, for this special mission, BMW M invited the two brothers to change terrain for once. They swapped a mild winter for minus 20 degrees Celsius, a racetrack for snow and ice, and the classic rear-wheel drive for the electric BMW xDrive all-wheel drive system in the new BMW i5 M60 xDrive. Got some burning questions? After this ride, so did we, and there were even a few left unanswered.
BMW i5 M60 xDrive*: Electric power consumption in kWh/100 km (combined): 21.2-17.9 kWh/100 km (WLTP); CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 0 (WLTP)
