The BMW is also rear drive so it is less likely to tear up tires accelerating compared to the Spark EV. Apparently just about any speed under 40 can produce tire spin on the Spark. The BMW overall looks more like the set out similar to Tesla to do what's right to make the best EV even if it's outside the norm so I wouldn't discount the weirdness as being wrong. Tesla doesn't do it because they market their acceleration and handling performance as much as their economy.
