Very nice looking car overall. While researching the car I found that they can have major AC/battery cooling issues that can be very expensive to fix. It didn’t seem this was something BMW was willing to cover under warranty or a recall but I didn’t research very deep after reading about the issue. It also has a very unique tire size which to me is a bit concerning long term due to limited availability and options. May 30, 2024

Pepe car but confusing controls. BMWs are very expensive to repair and the battery replacement on this vehicle is $16,000. So if the battery goes out just throw away the car.Jan 25, 2023

This car is great for city driving. Its way ahead of its time. I would not recommend it for long commutes unless you have adequate charging options. Also, I would recommend the rex version for older models because if the limited range. Nov 13, 2022
