On paper the car as a whole is at least on pair with Tesla considering construction materials, weight, aerodynamic design which is groundbreaking but mainly considering production processes and how efficient those are resource wise.
No way, Tesla is all electric and at 100k price tag you get nice luxury and performance features. Not to mention pure electric 300 mile plus range. It is sedan though but comparing features, I do not think BMW beats it. If they take that i8 and put m6 engine into it, that's another story. Unfortunately for the rich only.....
