I want one so badly, bismillah bros. Does anyone here own or have driven one?
>>28852825>insurance costs more than the depreciationsuch is the life for bismillah drivers
>EV>280 mile range>$60k starting pricevs>330i>530 mile range>$47k starting priceliterally who would want the EV? (besides faggots & mentally ill people who can't do math)
>>28853601oh, and I forgot. the i4 weighs 1,000 - 1,400lbs more than the 330i, lmao
>>28853601Their performances are not comparable. The i4 is luxury car compared to 3 series.
>>28853606>Their performances are not comparable.this is a jeet shill thread, please avoid. I was curious who would buy such a piece of shit, so I searched around and found it was, of course, only jeets (picrel)
>>28853607>a few moments latersame jeet ran into a wall in his new i4, despite parking sensors, back-up camera, automatic parking, etc.Shocking.
>>28853607>>28853609What schizo is this?
>>28853611I'm not sure if you know this, but the only people who buy EVs aside from the gays are jeets.
>>28853612Jeets drive Toyota hybrids. What third-world country are you posting from?
>>28853601The EV has around 340hp.More than enough to compensate for the additional weight.
Nah but I own the proper ICE model
>>28853629It's like the snow was artificially placed on the car to achieve peak aesthetics. It clashes so well with that nice blue. The shapes, the smooth surfaces, the confident presence. I am jealous.
>>28853633Yukigesho
>>28853601>280 mile rangewhat if you can charge it at home and don’t expect to drive more than that in a day?
The cars I've seen stranded by the side of the road most in recent months has been BMW and Mercedes EVs, not this one specifically though, but still. Saw a couple of older Mazda CX30s (?) yesterday at least I think that's what they were. But yeah, these BMW i whatevers don't seem to be terribly reliable.
I'm actually really liking the 230i. I like the B48 engine and zf8 combo and the car feels like it's well built although I haven't driven it. It's small, turbo and rev happy 4 cylinder, and most importantly, it's cute.
>>28853931I test drove one. It's better than the 6-cylinder IMO (even reviewers noted this) because it has much better weight balance but still enough horsepower to be fun. Hard to find the 228i in manual though, and the 230i is auto only right?
>>28853961yeah it's auto only but they chose a really good one and BMW has the best calibration for it on the market.
>>28852825How brown are you?
>>28854103Show us your hand
>>28852825The new battery architecture in the iX3 is 100x better.
>>28855948The battery architecture is largely the same. What's different is how the cells are packed. The iX3 has more cells packed to the body rather than a larger unit that is placed as a singular unit. This means they can pack in more battery on the same body which in turn gives greater range. But i4 has decent range on its own. iX3 has 800V charging though which i4 lacks. Doubt we'll see a Neue Klasse i4 until late 2027.
