Visited a few dealers today just for a look.
Cadillac has a full range of EVs. If I thought the wife unit could park an Escalade this discussion would be over. Alas too much vehicle for her. And the Vistiq is a bit larger than we need but a very nice car and competitively priced. Interior is also very nice.
Hyundai Ionic 9 hits all the buttons. Right size. Features. Great warranty. Tow issues for me. One is it isn't really priced any lower than say the Caddy or BMW. And it is ugly. I know beauty is in the eye and all that but it's as plain as a Tesla which I also don't like.
Acura only has a smaller unit no go.
BMW was an interesting visit. I like how they look and they have all the right features. BTW they all come with an air suspension to handle the extra weight per the sales rep. What is interesting is the interior. Not a huge fan of the layout but the materials for the seats - the micro fiber is better than the leather IMO. Looks and comfort.
But when I add it all up NONE of them had an interior as nice as my 2021 X5 with the leather upgrade package, I'm thinking I might wait a bit. Sales rep said in a few years BMW will come out with an all electric X5 and end the iX. Maybe the interiors will also improve. Since we drive 8000 miles a year it isn't as if we'll save a ton on gas to make it a good financial decision,
