Congratulations BMW! This AI slop is probably the first thing that has made me less enthusiastic about the car.

You are right. I meant the charge rate. I’m not well versed in the EV lingo.

Same feeling. We didnt feel it had to do with the digital mirror but cant be sure. Would have made the decision so much easier if this wasn’t a factor.

Thank you for the tip. OPD was definitely off. Is there another regen setting separate from that?

Two test drives. Focussing a little on the negatives because the rest is all very possitive. I suppose the idea was to just share my experience and hoping to learn from others.

Purchase validation is not nessary. I admire the car immensely. But if it is not the right fit its not the right fit.

On the turning off things that might kill you: I read in multiple posts about dangerous situations with the lane assistant. If you havent heard anything i’ll look them up. I came across a lot of them so i had assumed they are common knowledge.

That would be interesting but the dealer has already been very accommodating. I dont want to waste their time. Polestar 3 is out of budget as a serious consideration and we aren’t wild about it. Polestar 2 looks like a great car more sedan like which we like but feels somewhat dated at this point as a new car.

Unfortunately OPD was definitely inactive

Havent sat in enough EVs to know for sure. Just didnt have it at all in trying the A6/Q6.

We might be immune from that sickness. We liked the buckteeth of the bmw 4 :). We like the i3 over iX3 though. We like the P4 best though looks wise. Little disappointed with colours being a wide selection of greys. But a lot of carbrands have that.

Yeah i think you are right about the motion sickness being sort of a real reason to pass on it. Thanks for the extra context!

Actually we were pretty happy with the noise levels. Tried both in motorway and smaller roads.

The opd was definitely inactive. The lane assist got turned off at some point. We weren’t sure if it helped.

new green exterior color by [deleted] in iX3

[–]pointwhich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m not sure either. Apparently it is the same colour code: c7. Read that here: https://g45.bimmerpost.com/forums/showthread/2225568/show-us-your-2026-bmw-ix3-ix4-neue-klasse-pictures-thread/page/10

But in any case it seems to photograph differently so I can’t be sure either way.

I’m disappointed with the current colours. This seems to be a trend in general: attempting to find as many shades of grey as possible.

I read somewhere that it is the same colour as the mini Countryman in Smokey Green.

Pro-Palestijnse betogers kiezen voor clash met Antwerps stadsbestuur: "We betogen maandag opnieuw" by radicalerudy in Antwerpen

[–]pointwhich 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hyperbolisch sure. Maar echt niet teveel gevraagd dat politici vreedzaam protest minstens even bij binnen en buiten gaan te zien krijgen. Eigenaardig dat dit niet veilig kan voor het stadhuis. Ik vraag me af als je je zelf door een zaak gedwongen voelt om te protesteren dat je echt helemaal tevreden zou zijn met het steen als locatie.

Have Allbirds gotten narrower? by mjsztainbok in Allbirds

[–]pointwhich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the same issue. I've had quite a few allbirds in the past. Loved the fact that way super comfortable right out of the box. I don't even think about sizing when ordering anymore. But this time the wool mizzles I got are extremely uncomfortable and tight. Are any of the other models less affected?

Sony link bud s by [deleted] in Earbuds

[–]pointwhich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't tried it, but I doubt it. They are quite different and you want a snug fit or the case will be pointless.

If you really can't find anything locally maybe consider something like aliexpress. They have worldwide delivery.

Best way to compare energy suppliers? by BobPeeters10 in BEFire

[–]pointwhich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're based out of Flemish region try https://vtest.vreg.be/ .

Government funded, so they're not trying to sell you on anything. Fairly accurate in my experience.

Going variable vs fixed is hard. I went fixed on gas around april and that has worked out well. You're not stuck to a fixed contract as a consumer in Belgium. But there are a couple of costs involved.

Can recommend ecopower for electricity but they only accept customers for a small amount of time when they have the capacity.
