True enough. However, much of the criticism being expressed - including complaints about the drive wheels and the large grill - will also apply to its three-box twin, the F44 2 Series Gran Coupe. And that vehicle will be sold here starting early next year (debuts this November in LA).
Not that I’m advocating prejudgment, mind you, but I think some of the concerns being shared are valid. While I fully understand the business decisions that lead to this new breed of FAAR-based small BMW models, I still think it is a shame that BMW’s lack of foresight has prevented them from building a proper small EV lineup on the i3’s platform.
