Yeah I love the outside, the interior is a little sub-par though in my opinion! I want something higher tech internally than my P* next, what though, I'm not sure! I only have it till December next year which is quite scary!
I'm late to the thread, but I'd absolutely love to go full electric for our daily driver.
My other half drives 12 minutes / 30-40 minutes each way to work 5 days a week and I occasionally do a 200 mile round trip to pickup my daughter.
While I like a hoon, I find most of my driving on the road boring, so if I could make it as cheap and as comfortable as possible without sacrificing acceleration then I'm all in.
The trouble is, the only car I've really seen that appeals is the Tesla but all I hear from people I know that own them is horror stories about customer service. Is there another decent sized family that'll comfortably do 250-300 miles with the Tesla's performance and some semblence of decent driving dynamics?
but P* is, at least, compact, a saloon, and, not a whopper;Yeah I love the outside, the interior is a little sub-par though in my opinion! I want something higher tech internally than my P* next, what though, I'm not sure! I only have it till December next year which is quite scary!
you mean from a handling perspective. ?car really does look and feel like it.

I just want a sub 5s hot hatch with 250-300 mile range.
I think it looks cool in a quirky way but cool tends to be uncool very rapidly and that's why I prefer the more generic car like EVs. I would get an Ioniq 5 and feel like a tit driving it in less than a year. Even my wife said it just looked wrong and when I asked "in what way", she said "all of them".
A Polestar 2 AWD comes close. Unless you are one of those people who think an EV should do this at a constant 70mph+ on some mythical 300 mile long UK motorway?
About 270 miles in Summer and 225 in Winter.
This is true, it isn't quite a corner animal, it feels very much grounded though!Yeah but it's also a huge expensive tank, not sure it's very hot hatch like. I do like them though.
Not done a journey over 160 ish miles in years so 250 is good enough. I just loathe SUVs too

About 4 years ago I got what was a very painful left knee. Did a lot of physio and GP appointments on but could never figure out what was causing it. My GP finally lost interest and told me it was "normal wear and tear". At the time I had been driving a 4 Series Gran Coupe for about two years.
I changed to a BMW X1 to ironically allow my older in-laws to get in and out easier and found my knee got better on its own. Been fine with it ever since because I have stuck with SUVs and their more upright seating position.
I now call it "coupe knee". I assume it was the low down seating postion with most of my weight on the knee joint rather than my thigh. I couldn't raise the seats too high or my head was hitting the roof and couldn't go back further or I had problems reaching the pedals. I genuinely did not feel discomfort during driving even over longer distances, so never assumed it was my seating position.
Long story short, my knee likes SUVs
I’m confused, where is the electric bmw saloon there, nor is the E pae electric.
Polestar with that huge tunnel is intrusive thanks the flex CMA platform.
bmw i4 dimensions were bottom right,
hadn't realised polestar uses the transmission tunnel for batteries and thus keeps the footwells clear, frankly a good idea, to keep roof low,, unless it compromises cooling/maintenance

many of the reviews of other ev's complain about rear passengers having to raise knees.
