BMW may offer electric car options in each of its models.

From article, (Now, according to "multiple sources" cited by BMWblog, the i5 program has been canceled altogether.
 If true, that leaves open a question: what is BMW doing in electric cars?
If the BMW i5 has, in fact, been canceled in favor of electrified versions of mainstream BMW models, however, it may indicate that the German maker has decided electric cars are going to become simply another powertrain option.
 Rather than making them visually separate and building them with different technologies than its core lineup, it would adapt electric drivetrains into mainstream models the public already knows and buys.
 Which is, if you think about it, exactly what Toyota did with its Prius: that car's innovative hybrid powertrain has now spread across the Toyota lineup, with a hybrid version now offered in virtually every mainstream model it makes.)

Me, "If true, it means BMW lineup will include an electric car option in each Model class. Very exciting stuff! When a German company, with very well made cars, which caters to the upper middle class and rich it means big news for BEV's (Battery Electric Vehicles.) It means this is a phenomenon that is not going to go away."


If BMW i5 is canceled, what does that mean for its electric cars?
