Why is the BMW iX3's electric range lower than other electric SUVs in its class?

I've been researching electric SUVs and noticed that the BMW iX3 has a lower electric range compared to other models in its class. What factors contribute to this and is there anything I can do to increase its range?

The BMW iX3 has a slightly smaller battery capacity compared to other models, which can affect its electric range. Additionally, the iX3 is considered a luxury SUV, which means it may have more advanced and power-hungry features that can also decrease its range.
