That said, CLAR-WE means CLuseter ARchitecture With Electric, and the words you quote from that press release are:
"Our new cluster architecture is geared towards electric drive trains."
Hence we are back where we started. Which is, like I said in my first post, there are strong indicators that all the flowery language is really just describing an electric evolution of CLAR, and not an all new vehicle architecture.

Of course, it's unclear what "clean sheet" means in comparison to the current and future CLAR and/or whether the iX sits on a bespoke platform. But it sounds like the iX is much more removed from the X5/X7 than the iX3/i4 are from their respective twin brothers/sisters (not least due to the unique body style).
