This is about as speculative as you can get! This post contains information about future production plans I've compiled from various leaks within the BMW organization I am going to start making shit up that sounds like what people want to read and see how many morons fall for it.

If BMW has that many "leaks" they really need to tighten things up.

good thing the mods copied and pasted everything onto our sister forum and surprised surprised everything was corrected. if you follow BMW/bimmerpost you would know leaks aren't anything new. it happens all the time. people talk, its human nature.

A lot of ‘leaks’ (including spyshots) are also intentional info drops and trial balloons, to generate buzz, to see how ideas are received, and so marketing can be adjusted based on likely market response, as gauged by public responses to the deliberate leaks.

4 years is a long time. A lot of internal combustion niche products will probably be dead by then.

Can't be! It was confirmed by a rumour, based on a leak from an unidentified source and written in another forum. Has to be true since you just don't get more official than that.

Since the car is built in line with BMW in a plant in Austria, I would expect both companies to stick to something similar to this.
