Why would you want 1,000 more lbs of car in something that's supposed to be nimble and agile. It does good with what it has but we're not talking about buying a 320 vs an i4 here. We're talking about a person deciding to go EV or M3 and if these two were my options the i4 isn't even close. Tech has a bit more to go before I think it'll genuinely replace the M3.

Consider also how poor that range is when you rip it on a track. Probably sub 50 miles
You're certainly right (and lucky) in the US but over here in Europe the taxes are getting crazy, and totally absurd if it's a company car. Otherwise of course everyone would buy a lighter, cooler, good sounding M3 or 911... But governments push I4 and Taycans like crazy.
