My M35i stalled today

Today while driving to work I experienced something very irregular and scary with my 2019 X2 M35i. I was driving along at 35 mph and all of a sudden the car started to hesitate when I attempted to accelerate. I was in comfort mode and shifter was in D.

I pressed the accelerator pedal down more and the car actually slowed down. When I released the accelerator it coasted but every time I pressed the pedal again, it slowed down and hesitated. It felt like it was gasping for air if that makes sense. After about 15 seconds of this I began to maneuver to the shoulder and as I was doing so the vehicle stalled. Completely stalled. I restarted the car after a few seconds and so far it's been fine since.

Does anyone have any experience with this in their X2 or another BMW? I'm lucky I wasn't on the highway when it happened but I'm super concerned about it happening again. This combined with the lag issue really makes me want to get rid of this car.
