HUMILIATING MERCEDES! - 2024 BMW i4 - Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
- The new BMW i4 is here in its 396 horsepower dual motor variant, the BMW i4 xDrive40i! Clocking in at $88,304.70 CAD here in Canada (around 65,000.00 USD) this BMW EV is anything but cheap, but considering the closest competitor with three stars is the Mercedes EQE, the only car we ever gave a full on "do not buy" verdict, BMW might have a chance to massively outperform its German competitors.
The i4 xDrive40i sits below the rapid BMW i4 M50, but thanks to M Sport packages and various other options this four-door sportback is no slouch either. With a 0-60 time in the mid 4s and a tail that is happy to dance a little this all-electric BMW might just be the sweet spot of the BMW i4 lineup. Can the exterior, interior, and driving dynamics convince? And is it the best German electric car that we have tested? Find out in today's review!

So, BMW i4 vs Mercedes EQE - which one are you taking? And who wants to see us review an M this summer? 👀
I looked at the EQ series’s and ultimately felt it was a disjointed effort, didn’t have the heritage of a true Benz, and leaned awkwardly into the future. BMW i4 won in my book and I ended up buy an M50.
@@wailashshowaf5942 Totally agree. The i4 actually feels like a BMW, can't say the EQs feel like a real Mercedes... Congrats on the M50! I bet it's a blast.
Thanks, it’s a lot of fun, when I want it to be, and just a solid driving machines, when I’m just going from point A to B. It’s actually my second i4, I had the xDrive40 for 5 months then some one ran a red light and side swiped me. Their car was destroyed (Kia ev soul), I and my passenger walked away without a scratch. The safety features and BMW build are amazing.
@@wailashshowaf5942 Same here. I bought the M50 in August last year and currently have over 15K miles on it with no complaints.
I agree almost 100% with your take. I just purchased my i4 eDrive40, but my one gripe is how tinny the doors sound when closing them from the outside. You guys actually called out how substantial they sound. I thought it was because of weight saving or something, but I thought they really felt below class in their heft.
Interesting. Our main comparison point are the Mercedes' we've tested which are subpar in terms of quality. This could be a sign of fluctuating quality - we'll keep an eye out for it!
Been driving i4 edrive40 with M Sport package for 18 months; extremely satisfied. Even did 4500+ km across NL, DE, AT, IT, CH and back over summer. Fun to drive, comfortable and during those trips managed to push even 100+ km over WLTP (managed to hit 650km once on a single charge).
650km is really good! Glad to hear the i4 can outperform its numbers in the right conditions. Definitely a great car!
It’s named Grand Coupe, not pronounced “coopyay” That said, I recently transitioned from a ‘22 Tesla M3, to this car about a week ago. This is a far better car all the way around. Such a smooth quiet ride, the power is there when needed. Very solid!
It's a French word, so technically "coopyay" is the correct pronunciation. That's also how they say it in Germany 😉 But that doesn't really matter, ha! Glad to hear that your switch from the Model 3 to the i4 has been positive! We'll try to review a few Tesla's later in the year so we can contrast and compare better on in future videos.
@@GCCarsCA 👍👍👍btw, good review
Tell me more about the DAPP update that's coming? What is it exactly?
Apparently the next iDrive update will increase the maximum speed that the autonomous driving is functioning at. That's at least according to BMW forums .
@@GCCarsCA exciting, I wish their was a better way to have viability into updates and new features for idrive.
Hey not sure if you can help but I just got a bmw i4 35 M sports with pro pack etc I see your car has metal switches to do the window up and down mine don’t have this and I can’t find anything about this ?
BMW i4 all day💯💯💯💯
It's a great car!
