When does the Genesis come out? Hyundai seems like they will be a dominant player in the EV game. Though the GV70 is a CUV, so not interested.

Actually test drive a 330 PHEV and X3 PHEV when my lease ended last week, and definitely liked the 330. If BMW sold a 330 PHEV wagon in the US, it would've been a done deal for me. I just don't like the high riding CUV/SUV. So I'm out as a customer.
There will also be a G70 sedan EV. For my purposes, coming from a 330i GT as our family/shopping/errands car, the more spacious and flexible cargo is important. I would not take the M50 to trade a bit of performance for range. The test for size will be fitting my bicycle inside. These Genesis models are supposedly within a year.
Sounds like me. The Polestar2 thankfully is a hatchback and fit bicycles in the back. I think without taking the wheels off.
