My understanding is that battery placement was the issue. Some sort of updated rule about the battery being in the passenger compartment is no longer legal. As someone else said, the F81 was never intended for the US so the battery is in the back cargo area similar to most BMW Tourings including my F31 and old 540i. Not sure what is changing with the G99, but I am really hoping it makes it to the US.
