That is the same flaw I experience in my Tesla. The issue is not BMW specific.That would be annoying & is a flaw IMO

I’ve owned an i3 for 2.5 years, and while I like and enjoy it, I would be more than happy to criticize the range, suicide doors, and styling, among other things. Can’t wait for my Model 3!This thread can be split into two responses:
Those that actually own i3s who find that they are surprisingly good.
Those that don't own i3s who criticise; range, suicide doors, styling
I never really liked the styling of the i3. But with Tesla pushing the standard Model 3 out of the full federal tax credit window, and now that the i3 can be had for around $15k here in California....hmmmmm.
I highly doubt that a single tesla fan is threatened by anything out there.. the competition as it stands right now is a joke.. as soon as the federal credit runs out sales will stop.., except for Tesla's.
All these I3 sold in the US by the way were massively subsidized.. I know because I was looking into getting one for $200 - $250 a month with very little down.
You don't lease $50k cars for $250 a month.. ..unless you get $7,500 from Uncle Sam. That alone slashes the monthly payment by $208.
The i3 is.... not good, I took an extended test drive, and man, it has the BMW roundel, but that's where it stops, the range drops so fast and drastically in it, I had a new 2018, fully charged at 118 on the range, and 70 miles later I was down to 20 miles left and dropping much faster than I was comfortable with. BMW told me, "you need the Rex", well, the point is to get away from ICE... sooooo no thanks. The seats are uncomfortable and def not something for long trips (which wouldn't be possible anyway... haha).
Even on the cheap, unless you're just an in-town and never go on distance trips, I would stay away.

But the $7500 is taken off the cost of the lease.Agreed. (Even though a lease won't net the $7.5k from the Feds)
Can someone tell me the point of having suicide doors in a car, or any car for that matter? What value it adds to the driver or passengers, except to annoy?
As he said, gets rid of b pillar. Easier rear seat entry, more interior room.It eliminates the B pillar which can make rear seat entry easier.
