Is any of these similar to Tesla's planned bolt-on subframes(and seats?) to battery pack? |

No, the BMW and Porsche are all unitized body construction. They are not separate bodies dropped onto a full frame that holds the powertrain and suspension. Adding a structural surround to the battery does not convert a unibody into a body on frame design. To better see a true body on frame, look under any pickup truck.
