I understand he admitted he was wrong, but overall that was painful to watch. It seems like there was zero research done and all of the info came from the owner instead of a truly factual source.

I couldn't get through the whole thing. He seemed to have a lot of fundamental misunderstandings of the car and kept making really bad off color jokes that just didn't land.

It was unbearable.

No, no, it was hysterical!
Here's this earnest, pseudo intellectual type really dissecting the whole mystique of this BMW that he thinks is a hybrid! "I can feel the regenerative braking ", he touts. It's like he wants to be smitten with the car in eco-pro, where about 0.002% of us owners will ever drive it, but it doesn't quite feel like other hybrids ( cause it's not). At least he has the journalistic integrity to admit his stupid error and not just delete it. I think it actually makes his pompous style more likable. I enjoyed it.

Thanks for sharing OP.
Is he trying to be funny or is he just missing a lot of info about this car?
