Why is the BMW i5's battery capacity lower than other electric cars?

I'm considering buying a BMW i5 but noticed that the battery capacity is lower than other electric cars. What is the reason for this and will it affect the overall performance of the car?

The BMW i5 uses a more advanced and efficient battery technology, called solid-state batteries. While the capacity may be lower, it offers longer range and faster charging times compared to other electric cars.

The lower battery capacity of the BMW i5 is also due to its lightweight design and aerodynamic features, which contribute to better overall performance and efficiency of the car. In the long run, this will save you money on charging costs and reduce your carbon footprint.
