It is due to the height of the vehicle. Not sure why BMW cannot optimize CLAR better to integrate the battery packs. My Taycan is on a modified Panamera platform, no additional visual height or heft and I get better than EPA mileage estimates (about 260 miles at 85% charge). Other than price, not sure why someone would go for this over the Audi ETron GT or a Taycan.
