Any reason why the electric range is so minuscule? Guess it's not what the average AMG owner (enthusiast?) cares about, but at the same time, not sure they're big 4cyl guys either.

It has a tiny 6kWhr battery or some nonsense.Quote:

LOL @ 4654 lbs this thing weighs more than most SUV's. This car is an answer to a question nobody asked.
Why can't we have little V8s?

The M3 xDrive is clocking in under 3 seconds 0-60 with just over 500 hp and it's not exactly a lightweight.Quote:

Any love for the i4? I don't like its weight but if all the alternatives are the same then
Seems like a great car for someone who really wants a Tesla but doesn’t want a Tesla.
It’s no more hideous than the rest of the 4 series so that’s a plus?
Not sure why everyone is shocked at the curb weight. All the german bois are getting ready to have big electric offerings.. need to start testing their suspension configurations out in earnestQuote:

Ok.
It’s not like they won’t be sold out on day 1

Just speculation I think. I imagine OTD 140 will be possible with some configs for day one deliveries.
