BMW keep getting stingier, over the years the release buttons for the rear seats have disappeared, the adjustable bolsters on the sports seat first disappeared from the passenger seat also I see now the driver’s as well, the essential for me adjustable lumbar is now only on the driver’s seat, oh and worst of all most of the buttons and rotary controller have been deleted from the dash. The latest model feels like a cheaper car than the one before and if I needed a bigger car I would have got an X3 but I live in an old street with narrow pavements and on street parking where every cm counts.
This BMW does not show any innovation It’s ages behind the competition ! I believe that those legacy companies will go bankrupt in the next 10 years or so !!
I'd really disagree. I went to test drive everything and this car felt way nicer than all the rest. The XC40 had a better range and was quicker but it just didn't feel as premium as the BMW.
@@andrewdoyle1772 This car isn't as premium as the iX3 and way behind the iX but it's still a BMW and just feels quality. We really think BMW has overtaken Merc for interiors now. The i5 is great to be in.
@@WhichEV can't really compare to the iX3. It's not in the same class or price. Fair to compare it with the GLA, Q3 and XC40. The only reason I even thought about buying a brand new car like this is because it worked out with the business falling under certain limits with exceptions for a heap of taxes. If I went up to the iX3 it just wasn't viable. Plus that car still has the old generation interior.
That is an Xline model and not the Msport.
Yes, you're right. Makes the price even more shocking.
The Xline is a great trim, not everyone wants the msport look, for me xline has a more classy luxury look.
"Sarcasm...? What's that even mean..., I have no idea what you're talking about..." 🤣🤣
Sure. I BET you don't.
Stop saying BMWs have a 'kidney' grille - that is quite clearly a 'buttock' grille. Pity they don't have that an option so that you could delete it.
Just using the word that BMW does...
...although I expect it would be a cost option...@@WhichEV
@@Petelmrg just £5,000!
No No No it's a Land Whale grille. 😁
Is that why Beemer drivers are always trying to push up my rear end...? They're obsessed with sniffing my Tesla's back-side, like un-neutered dogs...

BMW does have some more innovative models, though - the i4, iX, i5, i7.

Small electric SUV??? Are you kidding?... it is a big car
Not compared to lots of other SUVs - Range Rovers, Audi Q8, even the VW ID.4 is longer, for example.
@@AdamA63 No, that wasn't meant to be absolute, but compared to other BMWs. It's the smallest EV that BMW currently makes.
Small as in small suv segment…not its absolute size.
@@melvinlui yep, exactly
@@WhichEV😂😂 go home man with your q8 😂😂 wtf is that comparison
