I love this, especially in that dark gray! I think it looks better than the Taycan. The interior, for me, is nicer as well (so happy they are moving away from the dual screens). I may have to trade the RS5...still have to decide if I can really fathom moving to an EV though. What do people on EV forums even chat about?? Lol

Is it just me, or does anyone think the armrest looks like an afterthought. It seem really far back, like so much that you couldn't rest your elbow on it and still have your hand at 4 o'clock on the wheel. Its a minor complaint, but one that I would find super annoying. They probably prioritized those cupholders for the American market.

It is nice to see more options in the EV market. Just from a glance the battery capacity is similar to the Taycans.

Audi/VAG kind of seems behind on the self-driving tech for a company that is usually so advanced in their use of technology. Edit, found this in a different press release. Quote:

I'm very surprised it doesn't have that god awful dual screen audi mmi setup. Makes me wonder if they are going away from that already.

I hope they do, the HVAC touchscreens in the Taycan and Audi products sucks to use while driving. Nothing can replace how easy it is to use physical knobs and buttons for some functions.

Agreed plus no fingerprints. This setup looks so much better too

Beautiful car inside and out. I love all the copious wood trim inside. This will sell on looks alone, and I predict it could take a bite out of sales of the A7.
With all that being said, it still doesn't interest me. This is an insanely heavy and expensive EV. Audi's ICE models are already very sterile to drive and this will only amplify that. Objectively a good car but not my cup of tea as an enthusiast.

Is it me or the rear tail lights look like the arrows are pointing the opposite direction.
Left tail light pointing right >>> Right tail light pointing left <<< It's even weirder when they are lit sequentially. |

I don't think BMW needs to rethink their pricing. They need to re-think their design language b/c right now it stinks. The e-Tron GT is a beautiful car and I would consider it over the i4 just on aesthetics alone.
