I also agree we won’t get a RWD variant here - does BMW sell any non-AWD vehicles here anymore? I don’t think A/4WD is a necessity though. I currently have a RWD Model 3 which is an absolute champ in the winter. Only issue is low clearance over the snow when it’s truly deep in the neighbourhood, which isn’t a RWD issue. I regularly drive on rural highways for work. Throw on some Hakkas and it’s all good. Can’t get its nose out of joint even if you try. Might get it to wiggle its butt a teeny bit if you stomp on it in a turn but traction control is very good and slip start gets me unstuck from parking drifts every time.
FWD with proper winter tires >>> AWD with all seasons.
