Audi, jag, and Benz all have competitors now and I don't feel this is really a game changer for bmw.
I think thats the point though. this is their "entry-level" electric car/suv i think. While audi and mercedes are going to charge $75-85k I think this will be a little less expensive, being a cheaper alternative. But hey, I could be wrong. The real BMW to look out for is the upcoming i4. That is going to be their "ground-breaking" electric car as its one that will be designed from the ground up, rather than taking a normal vehicle and converting it to an electric car.
