Yeah, and Kia or Hyundai or Geely don't have this idiotic theme in their corporate strategy you think?
So when that's all that's left, what makes BMW then on the long term? Just another Geely maybe? |
To be honest besides I6 there isn't much left. Mazda is coming out with rwd I6 and MB has new I6 also.
BMW does not have lighter driver focused rwd I6 car anymore.
Even electric is waaay behind without dedicated ev platform. Considering they had I8 years ago it doesn't appear they had good strategy. Also hybrid cars are stop gap solution to decrease carbon footprint and are very complicated without any real world benefit, my opinion.
The focus seems to be X models so gl to them in the future.
