While I am not a fan of EVs and the political ridiculousness that comes with them... i recently had a chance to drive the new 5 series back and forth between the EV versions and the gas versions... I can assure you that UNLESS I consistently travel distances over 100 miles on highways every day... there is exactly 0 chance that I am choosing the gas version... the EV is insanely torquey, has instant throtthle response and can easily get 290 miles of range... there is no chance this is replacing a V8 Vette for me nor a true M car... bur for a daily driver, it is arguably the ultimate vehicle if you can charge it at home. Once you get back in the regular 5, the gas engine almost becomes pointless and you wonder why it's even there... and this is coming from a former M car owner
