Hot! BMW AG: What's Next

[dalab]

Sarcasm?

lol, Not really, it didn't exist (dead) and out of nowhere it appeared with the Sandero, it ate the markets (it was the best-selling car in Europe for a few years if I remember correctly), a Golf for the masses and with a very fresh design, the same as the Duster, the new one is as simple as it is pleasant and different from everything else.

@dalab You are crazy to write that bmw is the best selling premium brand in the world. That's why I'm laughing

World premium market leader 2022: BMW remains ahead of Mercedes

The BMW Group (including MINI and Rolls-Royce) was not only able to defend its position as the world's most successful provider of premium automobiles, as expected, but BMW's core brand also remains the global premium. market leader, ahead of Mercedes-Benz and Audi.

I mean, it pre-existed for decades during the communist era in Romania, and was somewhat reborn thanks to acquisition by Renault. I've nothing against Dacia, but I'm not sure "from scratch" is how I'd put it.

Yes, well I was referring to the rebirth with such force, It is not sold in most of the world and now it is even in the soup

I like a Dacia with force...

... in fairness, it was the NO LIMITS MINI Pikes Peak car with a different body, but still... one of my favourites.

Driven by J.P. Dayraut, who is one of two drivers to win the Andros Trophy in a BMW. And there ends my segue back to BMW.

You see, a lot of charm in the photo

I don't know why I bother answering you, keep laughing

 

[klugscheisser87]

@leylandi , I don't understand your laugh?, (I never understand it), about official data

Again - Official data

Yeah I get it, basically you don't like most of them.

There are no figures for that yet, but it is estimated that yes, it will be on top of Mercedes like last year.

Your official data like 40.000 i4 sold in the first week, after that you just shouldn’t post any numbers on that forum.

In US, a tacky finished Tesla (a startup with just 4 model lineup) overhauled BMW sales in premium segment already one year ago, so in this case design even quality are not the sale fector as you see.

Got to agree with this. If Tesla can be the top seller, design and quality obviously don't matter.

That's simply not true, show me where I gave that fact?
I do not publish numbers, I publish sources:

I was trying to establish a normal conversation but I don't see you in that plan, nevermind

 

[klugscheisser87]

That’s exactly the point I’m trying to say, but for some is difficult to get it…

Quotting Van Hooydonk, it’s clear they know about their undicided design defragmentation, so they try to defend it, which is already ridiculous.

Van Hoodonk has to go, it would be the best for BMW, especially now in such an important transition to EV’s.

An XM and an M2 collided with each other...
Well, they are making an effort, it is no longer "Dinamic Iconic" but "The Hand of God", we got esoteric

How is that different from the quad motor tech in other flagship EVs?

"Hand of God"

LMAO!

Hard-hitting marketing.

Exactly. What about emotions and driver involvement?

'Hand of God'... ? M used to stand for Motorsport, now it just stands for Maradona.

The text refers to it

Something similar was used, I saw it at the time and it was effective, it conveys the idea clearly, also the "iconic hand of God" now that Maradona is in heaven makes more sense

The best looking X5 ever, in a good condition and package still looks pretty neat even today, especially the facelift version.
