Good. There is plenty demand for ICE/hybrid vehicles, I'd argue more realistically than there is for pure EVs.

I'd imagine ICE will be available in SUVs for a long time. My folks have owned several X5s over the years and it's always been a wonderful road trip vehicle. Having to spend only 5 minutes filling up is crucial. No worrying about if the spot you parked in has a special plug, no range limitations in cold weather, no range limitations if you drive like an asshole, etc.

And of course, being a more enthusiast-oriented brand (unlike mind-numbingly boring Audi), BMW likely has enough customers interested in ICE for a number of reasons for vehicles like the M2 and M3.
