Yeah, i know.
But given your experiences in owning MX/MXP, would you insist on driving the EV over BMW X7 (say their inline 6, xDrive40i) fully decked to 100% fully optioned, assuming $ is no objection?
Comes down to owning/driving EV SUV over the ICE SUV such as BMW X7?
As a comparison, fully decked out X7 xDrive40i is around $107,975 MSRP (including destination charge). Of course no one pays this amount, so after usual discount, the price comes down to about where say MXP is with optioned interior to say the Cream interior.
So, as question stands, taking out the mpg/gas $ and charging/range "overheads/anxiety" out of the way, based on everything else what's left (eg. driving dynamics, quality, fit/finish, service, customer service, apps, software, hardware, driving assistants, autonomous driving, wipers, resale value, depreciation, luxury, look, cargo space, cabin space, etc. etc. etc.) to compare between these 2 premium SUV's, would you (if you were to do over) choose MX/MXP alone?
And yes, Tesla is #1 in $ to maintain, according to latest Consumer Report, whereas BMW as expected is the "worst".
But also considering battery longevity, assuming you are keeping the car well past 200K miles, for next 10 to 12 years.
Base warranty is the same, 4 years, 50K miles. And BMW includes first year scheduled maintenances included in purchase of vehicle.
Now, for MXP (which is what i'm after), obviously 0-60 is no comparison. So if that is important to you then yeah, hands on MXP is the winner.
Size and weight are "about" the same.
But comparing everything else, how about it?
