There's a lot of this coming to the market right now. TSLA going to be in trouble!
Can't wait to see the options!

Most of the time, yes, but apparently not always:https://g30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1799884

Both BMW EV's do not have frunks, only trunks.

oh well, BMW really should move to skateboard platform soon, though this stand alone I think is still competitive, range is on the low side but not completely bad...

The looks of this is a hard sell for me, but to each his own:

Just watched the Marvel movie Shangchi (**spoiler alert**)...

Seriously scratching my head over their choice of the iX3 for the vehicle of choice at one point in the movie (without revealing too much spoilers). With all those Defenders, I'd certainly have picked those for the job. If it had to be a BMW, at least an iX or X5 would've been more credible I would feel...

I want to pretend they didn't fudge that with the M8 scene giving them a pass.

What was fudged in the M8 scene? I must have missed the fudging. Not very familiar with the M8.

What I meant was the fudge was a lost opportunity when they used the iX3... And it had that ugly graffiti on the side. The iX should have been the car of choice. I meant its a Marvel movie, I'm probably asking too much. But he M8 scene was awesome and redeeming.

M8 scene was great but the choice of the terribly modded iX3 was unforgivable. The graffiti was one thing, those blue 'teeth' like jaws below the front grille? Maybe that's BMW being sore about Mercedes getting the Jurassic Park gig.
