The problem I have with iX3 is:
1) announced two wheel drive that I haven't seen any contradiction on (looking for at least an auto mag report of the level of the initial report).
2) lame performance - XC40 recharge is targeting 4.7 sec to 60 which is roughly M40i performance. Honestly I'd be tempted to put a deposit on a Recharge if it were just a tad larger.
I am interested in an EV but I just can't get excited about Tesla. The looks are just tired at this point and I think they'll continue to look the same for the foreseeable future. I feel like all of the models are indistinguishable from the front.

Yes, Norvegians that was listed buying the IX3 got info on the X3 electric today.
Several intresting pieces:
Range: above 440km WTLP, battery 74kWh available.
5'th gen eDrive, improved weight and effieciency about 30%
210KW/286, 400Nm, RWD!
Below 20kWh/100 km
150 kW charging.
Q3 2020.
I'm no longer on the list, RWD is a laugh.

Agreed.
I may now actually end up with the Polestar 2 or the XC40 Recharge.

I put in a (refundable) deposit on both of these. I'm totally willing to cancel if something more interesting comes along in the meantime and I'll choose between them later.
Polestar 2 is getting roof rail option and retractable tow hitch option, I emailed them about it.
