This could be the game changer within the world of BMW car enthusiasts. I enjoy the advantages of electric driving for two years now and I will never buy a pure ICE for the rest of my life. Even renting one in holidays is a torture now.
But no matter what, Tesla will stay ahead due to the specific architecture of their core control system, which is genius and unique not only in regard of update possibilities. An exisiting Tesla car is already prepared for many future features on its hardware side. And every exisiting Tesla behaves as an element of their central KI System which learns from the behaviours of the cars in certain situations and at certain locations. And that knowledge comes back to every of their cars. I doubt that such a comparable system is integrated in the i4 or the iNext.
No doubt the i4 will be an exceptional car with perfect battery management, 100% reliable charging capabilities like I know it from my both first gen i. I really never had a single problem with that. Read what E-Tron and EQC drivers experience with their cars still today. This brands are really way behind and should worry.
But after reading some in depth reports of Tesla technology analysis by other manufacuters and independent specialists, I know, to get Tesla is a different game since that's not only a matter of building reliable EVs with a good range.
Mr. Diess, VW CEO, is one of the few guys who really understands what's the point. I guess Mr. Zipse too, but he won't let us know. As we say here: Don't wake up sleeping dogs.
