I personally think they absolutely should run an INDYCAR program with the hybrid V6s and then make the necessary qol changes to get that engine and hybrid motor into an M5 for a true successor to the E60.

Otherwise hybrid is dangerous. You can have 2 types of hybrids because of the way batteries work.

One is a long range low 'boost' type. See the 330e.

The other is a high boost type like a LMP1. It's dumps and returns energy at massive high speeds but gets terrible range.

My worry is M cars just become heavy shitty slow barges and not a properly cool P1 inspired car.

The INDYCAR as inspiration would be perfect.
