Mine (Jan 2019 build 2.0 petrol - non M35i) is doing it, esp when taking off hard from standstill. Even an old Passat next to me accelerated faster initially.

The car moves much slower that you'd expect for about a second, then accelerates properly. Then it's all wheel spin and torque steer when the power kicks in. Sh*** front wheel drive.

Took it for a drive with the dealership tech who said it was normal...

It's bad, and at least I can see others have this issue.

I remember my old N54 335i had a software update early on aimed at reducing the lag.
