The funny thing is that’s also the sentiment from the EV perspective too - compromises with the hood design (lack of storage) and inclusion of an unused transmission tunnel. That being said, making a product that is very familiar and can be had in an ICE, hybrid or full BEV version could end up being the best strategy for this moment in time. MB seems to have created more polarized segmentation by having EV specific models like the EQE and EQS that may not grab as much share compared to the path that BMW has travelled.
