BMW i4 eDrive40 (2025)
The i4 is the premium pick of this group, an electric Gran Coupe that delivers the hushed cabin, rich materials, and rear-drive poise BMW buyers expect, now without a tailpipe. It is for the driver moving up from a 3 Series or a loaded mainstream EV who wants luxury-grade refinement and brand cachet alongside respectable range. The eDrive40 single-motor trim offers the best range and a sweetly balanced chassis; step up to the M50 only if you crave dual-motor thrust. Running costs are low for the segment, but service, tires, and insurance run higher than the mainstream EVs here, so factor in the full premium-ownership picture.
We'd hold off — it's 12% above its 12-month low, 5.7% above its 90-day average, and it ticked up 12% this month.
- Luxury cabin with premium materials and quietness
- Balanced, rewarding rear-drive handling
- Strong real-world range for a sport sedan
- Hatchback liftback adds practicality
- Higher service, tire, and insurance costs
- Charges slower than 800V Korean rivals
- Options inflate the price quickly
