Um, most street scenarios are less than a mile or two. I can cruise to Vegas at 95mph with just a 30 minute stop in Baker for a snack/break that we were looking forward to anyways. I put 4000 miles in my car the other month. 99% of your performance needs are fulfilled with an EV. Average people don't even drive 50 miles (18k) per year. And if you need a track car, there are better alternatives to a street based BMW. On the other hand a 7:07 time for the 5000lb Taycan GTS beats any other factory stock BMW by a huge margin on the Nurburgring.
