The make or break for the entire vehicle for me will come down to the battery. Is this or is this battery not susceptible to thermal runaway similar to current Lithium ion NCM/NCA batteries? A Chinese brand is prepared to launch solid state batteries in mass production next year. Will BMW be competitve?

About 2 years back, I was certain that my next car will be electric. I might have been a lot more optimistic about the infrastructure catching up. But over the years, I realized that I’m not ready just because infra is not. So, still no electric for me.

On the other hand, I’m still not sure I like the new styling. Definitely do not like the grill. It seems though that most people love this design so likely this will grow on me.
