That's my biggest gripe with my car (2019 non-hybrid 540i) is that when you come to a stop, the engine seems to cut off right before the car stops moving, causing a little lurch as the brakes are no longer working against the engine. For this reason I turn off (and have set coding to remember that it's off) the ASS, which is an appropriate acronym, IMHO, LOL, etc.

The restart is very smooth though.

If it turns out that this is something that I will not be able to disable on my future 2022 replacement (at lease end) and the Mercedes or Audi does a better job on it, then I may have to jump ship.
