BMW looks to be trying too hard by comparison. It’s nice, but the interior seems a little derivative of the Tesla. And it really didn’t outperform the Tesla in a single category.
It doesn’t require recharging, it has a motor. It’s a BMW, which has been around for ages and is a known value. Motor Trend says the BMW won in Performance and Driving Dynamics. Plus BMW has the money to fix any problems the car might have, improve it in the future and not rely on governments for hand-outs.
