Nice write up. Regarding the BMW iX3, I don't think that a 200 mile range is necessarily a problem, depending on the price. The problem with the iPace and ETron was not their not-quite-Chevy-Bolt-level-range, it was the $75k-$90K pricetags, along with the middling range. I thing that the iX3 would be very competitive, even with a 200 mile EV range, if it were priced under $40K after incentives. Speaking of comparatively short EV range, Mazda might also be releasing their MX-30 EV crossover, with something under 130 miles of range. They have made a lot of excuses regarding their choice of using a relatively small battery, but like the new Mini Cooper EV, unless their price is low, their sales will also be low. Mostly because of all of the superior EV competition that you mentioned, along with several plug-in hybrid rivals like the Toyota RAV4 Prime, and 4xe Jeep models.
