I don't get why the level 2 hone charging is so slow.

Probably 7.4kW as standard and in typical BMW fashion you can pay extra to get 11kW (or maybe even 22kW, that's what Mercedes is offering now) charging speed. |
I read the entire 65 page announcement press release and looked closely at the Canadian order guide (which is all that's available for such info in North America).
Not a word about optional charging.
I think it's maxed at 7.4kW because BMW thinks most people will be able to run "dryer" circuits which are typically 40 amp circuits.
