Recently, some media exposed a set of photos of what appears to be the new BMW i4 electric car. The pictures show that the new car is expected to undergo slight adjustments in appearance design, including changes in the shape of the headlights and front face. According to analysis, BMW is likely to release the new generation i4 around 2024, and relevant details will be officially disclosed by then.
As can be seen from the exposed pictures, the new headlights have been adjusted and adopt parallel inverted L-shaped LED daytime running lights, which has a sharper style. Taking into account the need for camouflage before the official release, the front face of the new car is still covered with an obstruction, but it can be seen that its outline is basically consistent with the current model, and iconic design elements such as the double-kidney grille may be adjusted and optimized in details.
As a pure electric mid-size car, the current i4 has a long cruising range and strong power performance, and is equipped with single motor and dual motor configurations. The new models are expected to improve battery life, power and other aspects on this basis to meet the needs of users. BMW has been making continuous efforts in the field of electric vehicles, and the upgrade of i4 will also help the development of its electric vehicle product line.
Some foreign media predict that the new car will undergo small adjustments and optimizations to the power system. Referring to the power parameters of current models, the current eDrive35 is equipped with a single-motor power system with a maximum power of 286Ps and a cruising range of 511 kilometers under CLTC conditions. The i4 eDrive40 also has a single motor with a maximum power of 340Ps and a cruising range of 625 kilometers under CLTC conditions. The i4 M50 is equipped with a dual-motor power system with a combined maximum power of 544Ps and a vehicle cruising range of up to 560 kilometers under CLTC conditions.
