Great review Anthony. I really like this body style so much and I wish more manufacturers would do this. I had heard about lithium mining and that puts me off even more from going all electric. Then again we are killing the earth with our carbon emissions and I don't know another solution other than electric. I would buy the gas version of this for sure. Happy Friday and hoping that you are doing great! Oh loved seeing that mackerel ski so much! We don't get to see that here very often!

This is one of my favorite ev too. Not only is off the gas powered platform but it can be affordable (somewhat, it’s a BMW 😁). I like that BMW does its own mining so it’s not done by kids that’s very young but because BMW has joined Audi, Chevy, Honda etc with wanting to go hydrogen; I’m holding off. The new x5 hydrogen is going through test overseas so hopefully we can get them here in the states. So far it’s been a great start, another busy week starts in a couple days and hopefully we will have the new Sonata hybrid this week.

Oh wow I had not heard about that! Wow! I don't keep up car news like I used to anymore. I used to read every magazine etc. but it just got away from me. I do watch Motorweek and have for many years. Maybe I'll start getting Motor Trend again! Hope that you have a great weekend Anthony.@@HawkeyeRides

EV is absolutely the way to go. Batteries can last over 10 years if managed properly, so i am not worried about that. Thanks for the video, good to hear your thoughts comparing the 35 to the 40.

Relly Anthony, this I4 will last about eighty two hundred thousand miles--8,200,000 mile? And a Tesla will need to replace a battery after 4 to 5 years? BMW is paying you much to say all that? Misleading people? By the way, I own a 2019 model 3 with 109K miles with 88% battery capacity. Think my model 3 will need a new battery after 6 years or 130k miles?

Depends on the updates, as you may know, Tesla a few years back was doing updates and draining batteries or making them lose range.

At 13:24, Anthony said this BMW will go 8,200,000 miles. No cars I know of last 8 million miles. This guy is bought and paid for.
