Dealer i4/iX Launch event

motzus · 03-16-2022, 04:02 PM

My dealer (in Maryland) is saying that they have a launch event for the i4/iX coming up in a few weeks. They have not provided any details regarding the event. Has anyone gone to one of these events? What can I expect? Is it worth going? It is only a 2 hour event so I don't think they will be doing test drives. If I just get to see the outside of the car... meh. If I get to sit inside of it... maybe? I am signed up for the BMW Ultimate Driving autocross so in theory I'd be driving an i4 and iX over there...

I'm wondering if it is worth it to make time to head over to the dealer launch event.

It's a dog and pony show and they'll have some marketing people there to discuss the vehicles. You can sit in them and ask questions, but no test drives. The dealer should be getting their demo cars as well, so they may offer test drives with those vehicles vs the BMWNA cars.

Ironically, my dealer event is after the UDE event. I'll go just to see my SA and get more info and it's only 15 mins from my house.
