I share your frustration with BMW not keeping up with Tesla. I am contemplating a 530e, but it sounds like a heavy and complicated compromise designed mostly for lower Euro road taxes. When I leased my 528i, though, a lightly equipped Model S was about double the cost. They just don't discount or incentivize leases. Plus, my car does not rattle incessantly after 10,000 miles like my friends' Teslas.
