Wait, but even if what you are saying it technically accurate (and honestly I am not sure one way or the other, and don't have time to look it up), exactly what is your point here?
Are you saying that the article expressly mentions BMW changing the suspension to a different type than it is today and has been for years? Because that's not what I see at all. You're car has struts and so will the next generation car. That's all that article is saying. Absolutely no technical details beyond that are given. And frankly, even that much is far from confirmed since this article contains info that is shaky at best and it is way to early for this stuff to be confirmed with any certainty.
