This will definitely be one that will need to be seen in person to fully judge. Some interesting lines and shapes going on here. Doesn’t look as boring as the camouflage one we saw the other day but outside of the front end, this appears to just blend in with the other EVs coming out as of late.

Exiting if they go this far in the concept direction. Cant wait to see the sedan/touring models when they come around.

My biggest worry about the next gen is that you wont be able to spec proper leather interiors anymore for stupid sustainable bs reasons. Other than that it looks promising.

A modern car is a modern car, KIA, Honda or BMW. But come on spare us the agony of comparing cheap cars to a premium. If you sat down in a KIA and thought you where sitting in a BMW i would be surprised unless you where both blind and paralyzed from the neck down.. Cry more, and keep dailydriving that 20year old car it will all be over soon.. 😂

This car will be a headturner, and the current gen x3 will look dated. Sadly.. 😄

I think in the electric car world there will be less difference between brands. Everything is much more simplified. It’s just about who makes better user experience interacting with the car electronics.

Efficiency. It's a big deal because aerodynamics has an outsized impact on range-centric convenience.

IOW in the ICE world changes in aerodynamics mayresult in a few dollars worth of extra fuel with minimal extra time for a 10 min experience.

In EV world it's a lot of extra time at an already long charging experience. Not to mention that EV owners prioritize range.

Imagine if they just used a normal bmw grill and headlights. It’ll probably look better.

I hope this is the face they gonna go with, as it reminds me of the 507 and I really like this look compared to the current setup. I also like body lines, less fussy, less aggressive. Im sure Bambli and Frank Stephenson may find fault with it as it doesnt look like automotive product as much, but this kind of look is way nicer than current gen of cars, and looks pretty pleasing to the eye.

I look forward to the real reveal, I hope that the stance will be dialed in, the mule looks like its sitting on rather underwheeled setup.

Not necessarily. My Taycan drives different than my iX M60 did, and both drive better than any Tesla. I have also been reading drive reviews for the Audi SQ8 ETron and those have all been glowing as well. The Germans will still make good handling EVs for drivers who care about that.

I will already be super excited when they don't use one of their variants of their beaver grill.
