300 plus miles in G26 body shape... I'll be up for that. 2021 sounds like the perfect time for me change my G30.

They are definitely fake, printed on the wrap

Anyone know if this is on an extended wheel base platform ala the GT? Is it me or does the silhouette look more like a mix of the GT and GC rather than pure GC?

Now this should be successful. About time BMW! The average consumer doesn't want some funky futuristic weird looking econobox if they want to go Green.

And if this is based on the 4 Series Grand Coupe this should be super successful, I totally dig that car.

I think this BMW/Toyota joint venture has it’s fruitful result in that BMW gained a longer range on this electric car.

Hope it holds its promise of 370+ mile range when it comes out. Audi E-tron miserably failed at their promise and now advertising with 200 mile range currently. This is where Tesla outshines everyone currently.

Why can't it just be a nice car? I am annoyed by most electrics because they try too hard to make them look "different". The G20 is really nice, why change it?

The base and mid range Model 3 sure sure sure.... Not expecting it to beat the M3P.

The biggest problem with the Performance Model 3 is its looks exactly like the lower models.

Electric Cars don't need grills like ICE Cars do.

But I agree I hope it not ridiculously overwhelming.

Exhaust are fake plastic pieces taped on + has a sticker that says "electric test vehicle" on the rear bumper

Bingo.

Could just be the 4er Gran Coupe interior.

It also may be what they're using temporarily to shift between froward and reverse.

Looks like the G20 interior so I would also think this to be the next generation 4 series. Should be a nice vehicle.
