The test vehicle is still covered with camouflage, but the overall focus is on the front and rear parts of the car. The body outline and shape are not expected to change significantly. Judging from the details, the new BMW i4 will use a new style of LED headlights. It is expected that laser headlights will no longer be provided. The M aerodynamic components in the area surrounding the front of the car may be redesigned. In addition, the new car is also expected to change the shape of the LED taillights to bring more freshness.

In terms of interiors, the BMW i4 was the second model after the BMW iX to apply a curved integrated display. The simple interior layout injects a sense of freshness and technology into the BMW family of models. BMW is still popularizing this set of interiors. In terms of decoration design, it is expected that the mid-term facelift of the BMW i4 will not undergo drastic updates for the time being.
