any luxury brand maker should be ashamed to have any EV in that space that gets less three hundred miles on the EPA system. The i3 gets a pass because it was introduced at a time when its initial range was average for most EVs.
today, mid to slightly lower than mid two hundred mile range EVs are where consumer priced EVs will reign. Everything else needs to exist beyond that to show value and seriousness because those range numbers still require fair to nice weather to achieve. In some countries there could be a good market for the one hundred mile club but that would take some seriously aggressive pricing to convince people
Plus "electrified" does not imply full EV. that is the cop out for PHEV. Worse their new Mini E is again a disappointment in range and cost. Considering where it landed it makes me wonder what BMW will need to charge for range competitive with a Tesla 3 LR. Audi and Jaguar did the EV movement no favors with their lack luster attempts
