In terms of why it's 0.9%, I can only guess, but maybe BMW wants to incentivize the 45e in order to help meet emissions standards. Only BMW has an idea of what the incremental demand going from 1.9% to 0.9% is (which in itself is a super oversimplification of why there's a difference), but perhaps it's worth it. But this is just me saying things, no idea if there's any truth to it.
Same here. I think this might be region specific. Bay Area is pretty invested in all things electric but other parts of the country might still prefer a traditional SUV.
