PerformancePerformance enhancements over the original internal combustion engine (ICE) model are significant, with a 10% boost in power and a 42% increase in torque, creating an acceleration profile more akin to the M6. Despite only adding roughly 10% more weight, the vehicle's balance has improved to a 53/47 front/rear distribution. The electric range is greater than 100 miles, offering a combination of classic BMW driving dynamics and modern EV convenience. |
