really attractive actually - inside and out.
the large vertical grille works well in the SAV execution. very interested to drive it. BMW appears to have nailed this one.

I.e., the i8 was a magnificent vehicle, if it came out in 2010. At the time of its debut and during its short run the performance didn't match the look. Not that it wasn't a great vehicle, but it was too slow. The first generation i3 was also slow and the range really sucked compared to what else you could get out there. Now in 2022, BMW is releasing their next generation of EVs and its better than previous generation, but now it's at the level it should have been in 2014. Just my opinion. Look, I still like it minus the grill, and the quality of materials and workmanship is going to be very high I expect, but for me I wish BMW would do better. Most generations last about 7 years so this car will be available until 2028/2029. Can you imagine in 2029 only getting 300 miles in your EV and only getting 5 seconds to 62mph?

However, I don't think it would be important to me if my car does 0-60 in 2.9 or 3.1 second, but that's just me. |

And the reason for the grill this time is... air intake?

0-60 in 5s is pretty weak for an electric car. I don't know how you compete with Tesla when performance is one of the biggest reasons many folks would consider electric.

I'm pretty underwhelmed at the performance and range. I do like the interior with the exception of the steering wheel. It appears someone left it in the oven for too long. The front is awful but I do like the rest of the exterior.
In the market for an electric car, but I'm not sure this is going to be it for me. Not unless the price makes this more compelling. |

Can't wait to see it in some other colors, hopefully Phytonic Blue or a similar variant. Depending on the price, I will probably end up getting it, hoping for something closer to the X5 price range than the X7 scale. Like others have said, 300-ish mile range will be more than enough for me, my daily commute is around 50 round trip with free charging at work (been great for my 530e), and longer trips we stop every 1.5-2 hours anyway so it won't be an issue other than having to plan out where we will be stopping. I like the exterior design, interior will take some getting used to. I'll be interested to see how well the electrochromic roof does at keeping out heat, here in the south that can be a challenge in the summer months. Was hoping reports of a fall 2021 launch were accurate, but looks like I'll have to wait even longer

Why do car companies make their electric cars so fkn ugly? Im not talking about an electric version of a gas model, but their purely electric only vehicles....
I cant even decide which is more trash - this, or the tesla suv. Prius really set the bar super low |

I thought there was always some dept that approved pedestrian impact safety? That grill looks like it'll just suck someone right into it, not deflect anyone...

Not the worst BMW ever, but it makes the top 3!
The interior is interesting though, but is this production spec? iDrive and instrument cluster looks very different and interesting
