After persistent calls from drivers for the return of buttons, what about Bring Back Round Steering Wheels

Design is spot on, clean yet unmistakable BMW lines, extremely solid specs and as is known, BMW packages everything in a way that greatly overshoots the sum of its parts. The sitting position and the driver oriented screen tell everything about the identity of this new 3 series. I am extremely impressed and appreciate the boldness of teaching stale BMW petrolhead fans that the world moves forward.
The Touring will be my next car in some 5 years from now, I already know it :)

Im... moreThis is an All Wheel Drive car not a FWD one.
"This version has two electric motors, with one sitting on the front axle and one on the back. Together, they produce a total of 345 kW, which is about 469 hp, and 645 Nm of torque."
And the upcoming entry point single motor will be Rear Wheel Drive.

I'm waiting for the Station Wagon. The thing I like the least about the car is the rear end. The iX3 has a much better rear end design, hopefully the station wagon looks closer to it from the back and keeps the prettier front.
Considering how well the iX3 drives the i3 will be leader of the segment. I also really like the white interir and the design.
I think this will be a major hit for BMW like the iX3. And it's the promissed solid state batter range without having to wait till 2029 or 2030. Who can complain about a car with a 900 wltp range that can surpass 600kms of highway driving?

Imagine BMW known for it's rear wheel drive, going front wheel drive EVs.
