If those are paddle shifters, what will these be repurposed for in a BMW electric vehicle ?

There are no gears in almost all electric cars (see for example here - "Do electric cars have gearboxes?").

And some car companies use paddle shifters for other purposes than gear shifting: modulating regenerative braking, (de)activate rev-match, (de)activate intercooler water-spray, etc. (see for example here - "Let's talk about the correct way to do paddle shifters").
