No gear selector lever 4.) Boring screens, that too with disproportionate bezels in both the joined screen units. 5.) No driver side wallet cubby space. 6.) Rear bumber is not protecting the car body, design fail would lead to immediate dents at rear. 7.) No recline for rear seats. 8.) No openable Sunroof 9.) Hidden tailpipes for non M. 10.) Poor quality materials indoor and outdoor. 11.) Many other small small thins.

Improvements to the outgoing model would have been: stronger light weight materials, electric and with a battery on par with hyundai, nice rounded bend screens like porche inside, nicer real leather with great traditional patterns, large fullscreen HUD, slightly smaller grill. Perhaps also: vehicle2home for energy storage, openai assistant in idrive. And nice bmw7 style pillows as an option in the back. Anyway decision made personally: either asian or audi etron as next car whats a shame would of loved to stay with BMW.

Ugly - That front grille is messed up real bad, slant lines, camera sticking out, and a big chunk of sensor making it all inconsistent. The back seems to have been stuck by something. Nevertheless, this will still remain BMW's bestseller.
