You drive a beamer? That seems odd (image search it). Perhaps it's that thing there the local language mistranslates something.
Regarding the 'everything else seems heavy'-feeling: that is exactly what it feels like to me as well. Not in some absolute term of 'therefore it is bad' but the difference is quite present. With a lot of cars it seems like driving it is an effort, and it is presented as being an effort and almost praised as a universally positive property of the car.
At the same time it's very weird to see the polarisation within the world of car users as if you can't have both. If I were to drive to get some job done, I really don't want to drive 'with effort' or have a car that 'shows some effort'. I want to get from A to B and do the thing I wanted to do, not 'work the car'. That is a strange realisation when you drive a lot of previous-generation cars and don't have an issue with that right up until the moment you get the ease of an EV that just 'does the thing'.
