Also I'm sure you know that 330i is a sedan. Model Y is a SUV. They are not similar. A BMW similar to Model Y would be X3. it's weight is 4150lbs.
Did you know that BMW series 7 is around 4720lbs, compared to 4790lbs of a model S?
EV is heavier than ICE. That's never been a question. EV is gentler to the environment despite the weight.
- nonethewiser 3y agoThey are clearly heavier which causes more wear and tear. The estimation that they are nearly twice as heavy is inaccurate. Do you agree with these statements?
