I do understand that some owners care about the electric range, but:

1/ I personally don't care, as approx. 16 miles are enough for me. It's a hybrid.

2/ I don't want bigger batteries, due to weight

3/ BMW always advertise the range as UP TO 23 miles (or whatever figure). That language is deliberate and important.

4/ When I test drove the car, it was clear to me very soon after going into E drive that it would only manage around 15 miles when driven without being economical - as I would drive it.

....and again, it is probably the least important aspect to me personally.
