That was conceived as an answer to the Mercedes B Class. What it shows is that BMW can't afford to let Mercedes completely control a given segment while trying to compete with them on lower economies of scale.
I guess you are right, Im just frustrated with the lack of driver satisfaction I get in most BMWs (with the exception of M cars, the M235i and the 7 series). Maybe my memory fools me and I can just remember the good ol' things and ignore the drawbacks of the older cars.
