The new i3 doesn't look nearly as bad as the iX3 it was based off.









Looks vaguely e36 ish, even.

You're getting lucid range with better build quality and a reliable manufacturer for a cheaper price. 700km range and a 800v architecture should shut up the whiners.

I eagerly await RZD's technical analysis and SOMEONE to say how the model 3 is better.

Ugh... this is supposed to be a car, not a @#*$)@# spaceship. Why do manufacturers insist on giving us this spaceship crap for steering wheels instead of the good ol' regular round thing that drivers have used for so long?!

its German! the only thing they are really good at is throwing out the baby with the bath water and starting from zip for unknown reasons. They cant seem to get the "continuous" part of the continuous improvement plan and would rather start from scratch.

Look at VW and their ID trash, so bad that they bought rivian just for the software
Same with Merc and their shitty software

p.s. fuck your shitty eletronic retractable door handles. I thought china is banning those and therefore all the world would finally have some sense and go back to normal door handles.

BMW is still "authentic" compared to their rivals these days.
Audi/Porsche (aside from beetle) was always a VW parts bin special
Mercedes stooped to new lows and uses a Geely engine for their cheaper models

bmw is the only german brand i like. I used to like VW but now they've turned into a basket case.

Like i said that range is truly innovative. thats some ching chong level shit.

Despite my online trashing and anti-circle jerk tirade on BMW, I still like BMW as well. I have never been able to relate to Audi/VW. I'm lukewarm on Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche has left a sour taste in my mouth with they way they've treated me by asking me to buy a Taycan when all I needed was an oil filter. That's the last straw.

Lucid air drives way better than i4/5 tho, it’s like an electric E39
We’ll have to see about how this is

The distinction is warranted.

Who buys a car that doesn't run and lets it sit there.
