Massive BMW bonnet, with no frunk - could at least have made a decent size room for cables etc.
Still gigantic transmission tunnel - in a car without a transmission.
No extra interior space because of the electrification gains.

I really looked forward to this car, when the first concept was shown, but it's a let down that it's just a BMW 4-GC with a electric drivetrain
BMW in recent years has increased their line-ups by recycling components wherever they can

From a business perspective its very smart strategy but as a consumer, you end-up getting parts bin cars
