@@annenominous7220 Not sure what you mean by nothing to touch. The new Audis and the new Benz's turned non-piano black buttons on the steering wheel to piano black buttons. You do nothing but touch buttons for various functions. And the big black piano black console that is becoming standard in MB would be hard not show fingerprints, dust, and scratches. No idea why companies put that stuff in cars. There is a reason it is called "piano black". Leave it on the fancy pianos.

The real trick played there I think is A) less conservative self-rating, and B) make it the owners responsibility to manage the top buffer. Use 100% occasionally when you need it, but to make the battery enjoy a long life, charge to 80% SoC on a daily basis.

Touch screens are too distracting and who wants to lean forward and look at a screen to make sure u pressed the correct icon? I dont. It’s like trying to handle a phone while driving.

Nope couldn’t soft pedal it through winding curves. In the real world of driving it takes a control dance between the driver and both gas pedal and brake pedal to gracefully navigate safely and with fineness through winding curves. It’s poetry in motion a coordination between the driver and his highly tuned gas powered motor vehicle. Here you have an electric contraption going super duper fast at a ludicrous speed in a straight forward motion dazzling the humans with the need for speed. But it has no place in the world of man and his gas powered machine. In contrast the electric vehicle literally feels lifeless to its owner, ironically this electric vehicle comes with audio mimicking the sounds as if was a real gas powered engine. This is how it is confirmed to be able to know with no doubt that a gas powered vehicle is accepted into a person’s life, owners will give their vehicles pet names a term of endearment between man/woman. To the eyes of the beholder, every morning an awesome sight to behold I mean to say that it is glorious to the eyes and an electric toaster as your choice of a ride not so much. Dating rituals come into play inside their beloved gas powered motor vehicle in fact some of you were even conceived in the back seats of these beloved gas powered motor vehicles. So tell me something do you know anyone giving pet names to an electric vehicle, nope I haven’t yet that’s because it’s like giving a pet name to your electric toaster appliance at home.

I heard that charging opportunities in UK are nowhere near to what we have in Germany, but I am very satisfied with the car and if I was somebody who buys daily cars private I would be very happy to get it on the used market at such a great value. I get it that people are afraid of the new technology, if it lasts, if it will be dated one day... but with combustion engines you also have worries and you still buy them - how long will that engine of the used M5 last if you buy it cheap with 100.000 km, etc.. I just drove 1000 km from Austria to Germany and I wanted to do 3 12-15 minutes stops, but I only did 2 longer stops, because we have been two adults and one child and 15 minutes was not long enough to cover everybody's needs and the journey took us 12 hours in total including traffic jam and charging at 0,39Euro / kw/h. Travel costs: less than 10 Euro / 100km in an over 500 bhp car. So the technology is good enough already not to worry to much about the future.
