The four-door all-electric Gran Coupe features a rear-mounted motor and rear-wheel drive for sporty handling and refined responsiveness.
The new electric sedan will sell from R1 600 000.
BMW i4 Specs
This sporty EV is Built for balance. The i4 M50 is built with BMW’s near-perfect 50/50 weight distribution for better balance and responsiveness. The low-mounted battery reduces the centre of gravity and improves body rigidity. Perfect for handling those high-speed corners
It is confident and quick. In it, you will enjoy precision handling with suspension components, body panels, and chassis made from lightweight aluminum – and a standard Rear Air Suspension for consistent ride height and comfort.
The new BMW i4 M50 is well equipped with a twin electric motor setup driving all four wheels, generating 400kW and 795Nm.
The electric sedan goes from zero to 100km/h in 3.9 seconds and offers a top speed of 225km/h, while the 83.9kWh battery provides a maximum range of up to 510km. An incredible range to complement your day to day driving here in South Africa
To provide the sporty driving characteristics that the automaker is known for, this electric car is also fitted with the adaptive M suspension system, M Sport brakes, M Aerodynamics package, M Carbon exterior package, and 19-inch light-alloy wheels.
This combination gives the BMW i4 M50 exceptional dynamic poise during bursts of speed and under intense lateral acceleration. The drive torque control for both motors reacts notably faster and with far greater accuracy than would be possible with a transfer case positioned between the axles.
