Or as Wendy's used to say, "Where's the beef?"
Yes, because BMW are the only car manufactor that will have this tech... not!
The rules apply to the entire car industry, thus everyone will use whatever tech to fullfill those norms, but it is just a stopgap towards the EV.
...If any one actually believes that Tesla roadster can go 250 mph , get 600 miles , and only weigh in at 2700 pounds , I have some swamp land I'd like to sell you as well lol .
The Roadster might not weight 2700 pounds but It can easily do 600 miles with a 200 kw pack.

Vote with your wallet because ICE is on its way out so hurry and buy a gas car while you still can. That Roaster is no joke.
Tesla's most advanced 200kw power pack weighed over 3500 pounds last year so I seriously doubt it's changed that much in a year lol . Adding 3500 pounds of fuel to any car automatically makes it the opposite of a "sports" car dynamically . Until it's in production I wouldn't call it a win for them , it's a lot of promise and little delivered at this point . No doubt it will be quick to 60 , but that does not make a great driving experience , dynamics does .
I have a P100D and I love it. But you are right, the bigger the battery the heavier it is. Unless there is a drastic change in battery technology, otherwise they will always be heavy.

For now pure electric cars don't make a good track car but they are fun on the street though.
