The 2024 BMW i4 is a comfortable and spacious EV with good real-world range and impressive in-car tech. However, it lacks standout design and features and has a relatively high base price with middling standard equipment. While it offers a premium feel and overall comfort, the lack of value may be a deterrent for some.Read full review

What's new

All-wheel drive i4 xDrive40 debuts with 396 hp and 443 lb-ft
Part of the first i4 generation introduced for 2022

Overview

The 2024 BMW i4 is an all-electric luxury sedan and the most affordable EV in BMW's lineup. The i4 is essentially an electrified version of the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe, sharing that car's basic design both inside and out. The tech and driver aids carry over too, which is all generally a good thing. While some new EVs look and feel different from their manufacturer's internal combustion engine models, the i4 is simply another BMW, albeit one with an all-electric powertrain.

Edmunds spotlight: New xDrive40 version

Last year, the i4's lineup consisted of three versions: the 282-horsepower eDrive35, the 335-hp eDrive40 and the 469-hp M50. The first two have a single electric motor powering the rear wheels, while the M50 gets an extra motor for the front wheels, thereby giving the car all-wheel drive. Now there's another addition for 2024: the i4 xDrive40. It has dual motors, all-wheel drive and 396 hp. Interestingly, the additional motor and power has not hurt EPA-estimated range. It checks in at 307 miles on a full charge, which is even a bit better than the eDrive40's 301 miles.

Competitors to consider

The i4 is priced higher to start than electric sedans such as the Hyundai Ioniq 6, Polestar 2 and Tesla Model 3. But in return you're getting a classier cabin and, of course, a BMW badge. Keep reading to see what our experts have to say about the i4 to decide if it's the right EV for you.

Performance

8/10

How does the i4 drive? The BMW i4 is great to drive up to a point, but it's not the sport sedan we were hoping it might be. We tested the eDrive40 model. At our test track, it sprinted from 0 to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds. That's on par for rear-wheel-drive EVs. You'll need to step up to the i4 M50 if you want a considerable boost in speed, but in general the car never struggles to keep up with traffic or merge onto the highway. The brakes are smooth and provide plenty of stopping power, and the car allows for one-pedal driving, which helps recharge the battery and reduce driving fatigue in traffic (not having to constantly switch between pedals).

While many of BMW's cars reward and excite when driven hard, the i4 isn't one of them. It's quick, sure, but handling leaves something to be desired. The steering is quick and light enough to make parking easy but lacks feedback. Body roll is mild as you go around turns, but the i4 can start to feel a little bouncy and unsettled when pushed hard. There's less traction from the tires than we expected, and while it's never scary or out of sorts, the i4 is more of a handful on tight roads than we expect from a BMW.

Comfort

8/10

How comfortable is the i4? Ride comfort is one of the i4's strongest attributes. The car feels calm and composed on the road, be it city surface streets or the highway. The car doesn't completely tune out bumps or imperfections, but they're muted much more than in rivals like the Tesla Model 3. The seats, though nothing particularly standout, are reasonably comfortable and supportive. They don't offer much in the way of adjustment, though. The optional heated seats work well, but BMW doesn't offer ventilation. The rear seats are angled well and supportive, but they aren't particularly plush.

The i4's climate control system runs a bit warm, and the fans never seem to quiet down. That's not so bad in a gas-powered car, but the i4's quiet nature only amplifies any noise or harshness. There is very little wind noise, so a big plus there. Our sound meters measured noise inside the car a few decibels higher than in the Polestar 2 or Tesla Model 3.

Interior

7.5/10

How’s the interior? BMW's iDrive user interface has had its ups and downs. The system in the i4 is definitely an "up" — we found it easy to navigate and liked having both a touchscreen and rotary dial to interact with. While most controls are easy to see and reach, the seats fall just short of being able to dial in a perfect fit. On the upside, the cabin feels fairly roomy up front with generous headroom and legroom. Space isn't quite as abundant in back, with minimal toe space available under the front seats and slightly compromised headroom due to the i4's sporty roof silhouette.

That rear roofline also puts a small squeeze on the view out back, but not enough to be a detriment. Surprisingly the roofline has little to no effect on rear head clearance as you're getting into the car, but we'd be mindful of those frameless windows since it seems easy to kiss a corner if you aren't paying attention.

Build & Price

Technology

8.5/10

How’s the tech? Tech is a strong area for this BMW. We've voiced some complaints with BMW's advanced driver aids in the past, but the i4's seem to have been refined to near perfection. Adaptive cruise control and lane guidance worked excellently, and we experienced zero false alarms over weeks of driving. The optional 360-degree camera system is also worth the upgrade, and if you're an audiophile, the Harman Kardon surround-sound system is also pretty great and reasonably priced.

The i4 comes standard with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, and it worked without issue for the entirety of our test — a rare occurrence. Four USB ports throughout the cabin mean all passengers can keep their devices charged, and if that's not enough, you can always use the 12-volt outlet or spring for the optional wireless charger. BMW's voice-activated assistant is also more functional than most. It can adjust the climate and turn on seat heaters as well as the usual things such as tuning to a radio station and programming the navigation.

Storage

7.5/10

How’s the storage? You wouldn't know by looking at it, but the i4 is actually a hatchback. That bodes well for cargo storage despite the official measurements saying there's only 10 cubic feet of space back there (which we think is what can fit under the luggage cover). The rear seats can be folded flat in three sections to help facilitate transport of longer items. Unfortunately, there's no front trunk for added storage, not even a small one, which is a minor disappointment.

Storage inside isn't extraordinary, but that's typical for BMW and many luxury makes. We're a little more disappointed about the lack of storage since EVs tend to have fewer parts to package around, which usually frees up interior space. If you need to fit a car seat, rear legroom is pretty decent. The Isofix anchors are clearly marked and easily accessible, and because the top tether anchors are located on the back of each seat, it's easy to clip and cinch a car seat into place.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Range and Efficiency

8.5/10

How are the range and efficiency? The i4 eDrive40 with 19-inch wheels that we tested has an EPA-estimated range of 283 miles, though if you stick with the base 18-inch wheels that estimate rises to 301 miles. In any case, our test vehicle outperformed both figures in our real-world EV range testing, driving 307 miles on a single charge. We also beat the EPA-estimated consumption of 34 kWh/100 miles, measuring 29 kWh/100 miles on our route. (Lower figures are better here.) Those figures are a bit better than some rivals, though some versions of cars like the Tesla Model 3, Kia EV6 and Ford Mustang Mach-E offer better EPA-estimated and real-world range.

Recharging the BMW can be done at home or at public charging stations. At home, using Level 2 AC charging, the i4 has a charging capability of up to 11 kW. That rate matches both the Tesla Model 3 and Polestar 2, and BMW says a completely empty battery can recharge to full in under eight hours. At a public DC fast charger, BMW states the i4 has a peak charge rate of up to 200 kW, which is quicker than the more common 150-kW rate. Assuming ideal fast-charging conditions, BMW says you can add up to 90 miles of range in just 10 minutes.

Value

7.5/10

Is the i4 a good value? As you might expect from a BMW, overall build quality is pretty stellar. The interior isn't anything particularly fancy or stylish, but the clean design gives the i4 a more premium feel than some other EVs. There are nice materials on the seats, doors and other frequently touched places. But that premium feel comes at a significant cost; the i4 is considerably more expensive than a Tesla Model 3. It doesn't help that the i4 is light on base features, lacking things like standard adaptive cruise control and heated seats.

BMW includes a four-year/50,000-mile basic and powertrain warranty. That's good but not outstanding for the class. Also average is the eight-year/100,000-mile warranty on the battery pack. The i4 also comes with two years of complimentary fast charging at Electrify America stations, though it's limited to 30 minutes. It also includes 60 minutes of complimentary charging at 240-volt chargers, though charging speeds are significantly lower.

Wildcard

7.5/10

The i4 eDrive40 is not the sportiest model in the lineup; that's reserved for the more powerful i4 M50. While we wouldn't call it boring, the i4 isn't the most exciting EV we've ever driven either. The electric motor's torque makes it feel quick around town, but that's true of nearly every EV out there. Handling, too, is good but not amazing. The i4 simply isn't as much fun to drive as other electric cars. It's not particularly standout when it comes to personality either. For better or worse, it looks like any other BMW sedan, electric or not. That's good if you want to blend into the crowd, but it means the i4 doesn't feel particularly distinct in any way.

Which i4 does Edmunds recommend?

With an EPA-estimated 307 miles of range, all-wheel-drive traction and a robust 396 horsepower, the new xDrive40 looks to be the sweet spot of the lineup. It's priced between the rear-wheel-drive eDrive40 and the more powerful M50. Regardless of model, look to get the Premium package for the head-up display, heated front and rear seats, and wireless charger, and the Driving Assistance Professional package for extra driving aids that make it easier to drive in congested highway traffic.

Our first EV

BaronofGreymatter, 03/22/2023

2023 BMW i4 eDrive40 4dr Sedan (electric DD)

In 2020 we built a new net-zero house with a 15 kW solar array, so when the lease on our 2019 Honda CR-V ended, we shopped for an EV to replace it. We tested the Model Y, Mach-E, ID.4, EV6, Ioniq 5, BMW iX, and BMW i4, settling on an i4 eDrive 40 with the M-Sport package. This was a big step for us not only in the switch to an EV, but also because it replaced an AWD SUV (our other car is … a 2018 Audi S4). We chose the i4 based on driving dynamics, range, and build quality, figuring that the large hatchback would manage 99% of the hauling tasks of an SUV or wagon. We chose the RWD i4 based on better range and driving dynamics than the AWD i4 M50. Living on the south coast of MA, winters are mild so we anticipated that RWD and the OEM all-season (i.e., no season) tires would be sufficient all year round, particularly as we have the S4 with an 18" winter wheel and tire package for those few days when RWD might be dicey. I love performance cars, which is the i4 emphatically not, but it is so rewarding to drive that I hardly use the S4 anymore. The dynamics are quite good. Steering unsurprisingly lacks feel but is accurate with crisp turn-in and good centering (we got the dynamic steering option). We got the M-Sport package as that was the only way to get adaptive dampers. The car corners fairly flat and comfort mode hits an excellent balance between absorbing bumps while limiting excess body motion. The car can hustle and has decent grip on the OEM Pirelli P Zeros, but the 4680-pound curb weight makes it more of a luxury cruiser than a sport sedan, despite the pretense. Given that weight, we opted for the uprated brakes, but they hardly ever get used since the regen works so well. At least the brake pedal feel is good and the transitions from regen to mechanical braking are imperceptible. The single motor i4 has more than adequate acceleration (high 4 to low 5 sec 0-60 according to reviews) and has the typical EV benefit of instant torque that makes merging on highways or passing bicycles on country roads easy. The interior build quality and feel are great, and the car is very quiet on the road. We got the Harmon Kardon sound system and it's worth the money, particularly with the minimal background noise. This is the first car I've owned where listening to classical music is worthwhile. The interior downsides are the center tunnel (this is a dual-purpose ICE/EV platform) and limited rear passenger leg and headroom. Not a problem for us with no kids or dogs but could deter many. The hatch works well, and the car can easily haul a bicycle or all our trash & recycling for the dump run. The iDrive 8 infotainment system is on par with better end of those in EVs we tested (ID.4 the worst) but the lack of physical buttons for some functions is irritating. My biggest gripe is with turning on the seat heaters (at least the steering wheel has a one-level physical button) and the lack of physical audio preset buttons. Voice control works well but is too laggy for flipping between Sirius XM channels. The graphic quality of the display is excellent, and we haven't had any issues with using it in bright sun or at night. The HUD works well and shows next turn instructions from Waze via Android Auto. Seeing Waze guidance on the HUD was intermittent at first, but now realizable. Maybe an OTA update fixed it? We initially optioned dynamic cruise control and 360-degree parking camera, but those became unavailable as the wiring harnesses were made in Ukraine. Damn Putin! A downside of the M-Sport package is that it only comes with staggered width 19" wheels. Those large contact patches cost about 7% of range compared to the 18s on the base e40. Given the way we drive the car, I'd happily give up some grip for better range. Despite big wheels, the car has been more efficient than we expected. Our solar array makes more power than the house uses, and MA has net metering, so we have paid nothing for charging over the first 20,000 miles of use (October 2022 through December 2024). When the weather is good (no rain, temps in the high 40s to low 70s) we routinely see 3.8 to 4.2 mi/kWh or better in mixed driving that's about 80% highway. Average mi/kWh since factory now sits at 3.9. It loses 20-30% of range in cold weather. Still, there is enough capacity (81.5 kWh) that even in the worst conditions I can make my once a week 150-mile round trip commute while keeping the state of charge between 80-20%. I believe that it beats the EPA rated range 282-mile range in ideal conditions. Since we bought the car outright, I'm trying to keep the SOC in the 80-20 range. So far, I have avoided DC fast charging. For longer trips, particularly in foul weather, we use the S4. When I started looking at EVs I never imagined buying one built on an ICE platform, but the test drive sealed the deal for the i4. Something about the low center of gravity, very quiet cabin, and nicely balanced suspension makes the i4 driving experience feel like a much more expensive luxury car. Despite being a petrol-head and former amateur motorcycle road racer, the peak i4 driving experience for me is serenely wafting along in that comfortable and quiet cabin, listening to music, and eking out the highest mi/kWh I can. It's fun to try and maximize coasting and then judge the regen invoked by moving the drive selector from D to B so the car stops at a light or intersection without touching the brake. Another benefit of being inside the car is not having to look at its godawful nose. At least it has a low coefficient of drag. The i4 might not appeal to a wide audience, but for us it's near perfect. I'd give it five stars if we could have got the dynamic cruise and parking assist features. The first scheduled maintenance was at 36,000 miles based on 2-year interval (otherwise 40K). It was relatively trivial, except that the rear tires needed replacement. I doubt the brakes will need anything for the first 100,000 miles since I mostly slow with regen, and it's great not having to pay for oil & filter changes every 7,500 to 10,000 miles, or spark plugs & timing belts. The negatives are minor so far. The M steering wheel is too thick and the metal trim on its spokes are cold in winter and take a long time to warm up despite the heated wheel. The outside doorhandles are oddly designed, making it easy for your hand to slide off when trying to open them. The blind spot warning lights in the side mirrors are too small and peripherally placed to be ideal. Our Audi S4 has big warning lights in the side mirror bezel that is much better, but the mirror placement in i4 wouldn't allow it. The back of the car is a dirt magnet. Not sure if that's got to do with aerodynamics, but it never stays clean the and the rear-facing camera lens requires frequent cleaning in winter. That's about all I have to complain about so far (2 years and 38,000 miles).

BMW i4 vs. Tesla Model 3

You can't talk about small luxury EVs without mentioning the Model 3. Its mix of performance, range and technology is difficult to beat, and on top of that the Model 3 gets access to Tesla's superior charging infrastructure. An updated Model 3 is also coming for the 2024 model year. In the BMW's favor is that you can customize it with a lot more with different features, colors and trim.

BMW i4 vs. Polestar 2

Great to drive, stylish and featuring a Google-powered infotainment system, the Polestar 2 is a solid all-around choice for a small EV. Available in two-wheel or all-wheel drive, the Polestar 2 can be configured for efficiency or for fun. But the Polestar 2 comes up short on range compared to the i4.

BMW i4 vs. Kia EV6

The EV6 continues Kia's tradition of offering good value for the money and comes loaded with plenty of standard equipment that's optional on the i4. Even though it's classified as an SUV, the EV6 sits low and delivers lively handling and quick acceleration. While the i4 is generally more expensive than the EV6, it boasts higher-quality interior materials and offers better EPA range estimates from most of its models.
