They are going for a look that differentiates the car (and the i-line) from the rest of the pack. And they've done that. One reviewer was doing a test of the MB electric SUV and the i3. Said that no one notice the MB. The BMW generated a lot of interest and conversation. That is good for the brand.
Also known for generating interest and conversation.
