Anything else coming soon in “luxury” segment? Mercedes has said their entire lineup will have either hybrid or all electric option by 2022. Audi will have 10 all electric cars by 2025. BMW says it expects up to 25 percent of its sales to be plug-in electric vehicles by 2025.
and I bet they won't be months late and ask for an extra $2500 and skip the brake test just to make production... I'm sorry but coming from an automotive manufacturing background.... it don't look good...I'm all for electric cars... But honestly until they come out with batteries that can charge as fast as filling your tank with petrol .... electric cars are not practical....
