It’s definitely interesting to me from a tech perspective, but I just don’t see why. Is this for people who just don’t want to accept that they are driving an electric car?

it's for people like me who don't accept the hybrid G90 M5!

it will never be an ICE but i think it will be better than a hybrid which weigh about the same, and looks better than the G90

But why do you need tricks to mimic an ICE/DCT? I own an EV that I really enjoy, I don’t feel like it’s missing a transmission or an exhaust

Better sound effect to be pipped in side and out side your EV.

i'd say why not. i have a driving simulator at home, this will just be a more realistic computer game for people like me who want to hear noise, want to drift but don't want to attract cops.

i'd hate to find out how much this costs but apparently close to a Kia EV6 GT so about the same as a M340i.

once something is successful everyone else will follow too.

i don't buy EVs to save the planet lol. i want instant heating, instant max power and instant max torque which none of my BMW ICE can provide. my NA Toyota V6/ex supercharged DCT (DSG) Audi S4 would be pretty close, but they are so old. I'm very interested in this N car ... should drive better than both my M340i and M550i. i tested the Kia EV6 GT Line (not the GT GT) and that one drove better than both my BMW ICEs so this one should be even better.

yes at high speeds ICEs rule but at low speeds EVs rule

Interesting but where would the market be if not for the Global warming crowd.
Gone would be the government incentives.
Gone would be the ridiculous cafe standards that are forcing manufacturers to make EV's at the expense of ICE's.
Gone would be the pressure on fossil fuels to make them more expensive.
Gone would be the ESG efforts that are effecting all our lives (maybe not)

I get where you are coming from and your honesty is refreshing but your EV options come at a price to everyone else.
