Will you take the i4 M50 or i4 eDrive35?
Both.
edrive 40 is a good compromise. M50 if you can swing it
I am currently driving the M50 as a daily. I am in absolute love with it. So, I am a little biased when I say the M50.
I think the better question is iDrive 8 vs 8.5. I am so glad the 24 has iDrive 8.5. It's so much more refined than the previous OS.
I think the electric cars BMW builds currently are fantastic. I wonder how much their models increase not only in range, but also in efficiency when they switch to the "Neue Klasse"-electric only platform. Looking forward to :) Thank you for the video, I still dream about owning an i5 one day^^
I live in apartment so not charging at home is an experiment to my e40 that I leased. I think it’s doable but which me luck lol
The i3 was set up where you didn’t have to worry about the whole 80-100% thing bc what I understand even at 100 charge you would technically never a full 100
I would think the i4 would do the same
Awesome review Sean!
I wish tesla had that much luxury and qualty. And stalks buttons etc.
Good review
do you change each night. is that ok to do
I've had mine for 9 months, best commuter ever. If you enjoy driving, never ever ever drive in eco pro, its like training wheels on a bike. You get 0 steering feel and floaty suspension. Put it in sport (steering/drivetrain/susp. all sport) or sport individ (comfort suspension) and drive it like a modern BMW. You do get adaptive suspension with the M sport trim. You can easily surpass or match the EPA efficiency if you drive the speed limit and other weather factors are in your favor. I used to get pulled over in my E46 M3 frequently just because its an M Car and I don't think a cop has even looked at me once while doing questionable speeds in the 35.
Valid points on the price (Tesla is giving away model Ys at this point)
Eco mode for long hauls on the highway where you're not cornering and need to stretch the miles. And yes, you need to put it into Sport if you want to go canyon carving for the tighter steering response.
how much does it drop when you drive in sport mode.
how long does it take to charge at stations.
Most people charge at home, which is extremely convenient. In four years driving an EV, I've never had to charge at a public station. (Plus, with the solar system I installed to power my house, excess capacity also powers my car.)
What car do you have?
@@bmwblog Model Y
Most people don't live in homes where they can charge.
This is one reason Evs sales have slowed.
@@Tigerex966 Look it up: "In the United States, the majority of housing units are single-family houses - about 82 million out of the total 129 million occupied units in 2021."
@@Tigerex966 Only about 1% of registered cars in the US are electric. That leaves a huge potential for expansion, even if you only allow for people living in homes where they could charge. Almost everyone with a driveway still drives a fossil.
Getting one of these cars this week. Absolutely love the video. Thank you so much
Ours is due end of next month! Can’t wait!
did u get one, hows your experience with the charging?
I read on BMW specs that we may only worry about preconditioning the battery if charging on level 3 type of charger, planning to preconditioning 20-30 min before charging. I am taking my edrive35 to a trip from DC to Ithaca-NY and probably stopping for charging a couple of times, or every 2 hours of driving. We will see what happens...
Will get mine in the end of June, ordered a edrive35 (initially I wanted to go for the edrive40 but in Austria there is a 10k Euro difference between those models, so I opted for an edrive35 with tons of features instead). I loved the testdrive with this car, felt really comfy but also sporty, with more than enough acceleration for daily driving.
For most people, e35 is enough.
Which MagSafe holder did you install? Thanks.
Little $20 one I found off Amazon. I just keep it there as it helps it cool as the air vent blows on it. One downside to the charging pad is there is no cooling to it, and it can get really hot.
I wasn’t aware on the current brushed motor on these cars. Would you say they also use brushed motor on the e40 and M50?
I believe that all BMWs in the "i" line use a brushed AC motor to eliminate the need for neodymium magnets. Theoretically it'll last for over 125,000 miles and theoretically it'll be a relatively simple thing to service.
What is the war like warranty and replacement cost battery cost
I think companies are engineering in fail points to make up for money that service in gas cars had plus subscription and unlocking features through software!!!!!!!$$$$
I have mine on order in the UK e40 M sport with visibility pack, charge at home works out at £7 overnight, my diesel glc is £90 every two weeks. Can’t wait
What’s your eta? Mines July and I ordered in April, but most people I know have had delays!
18:07 - The "THX" sound....
BMW had a really great infotainment with iDrive 7. Anything after that is a terrible downgrade. I'm really not looking forward to change car next year when my lease is ending.
They moved on from that because of the screens and touch. Unfortunately, that's the industry
If you don't actually need the extra range of a 40, the bigger battery is just more weight.
True
A homeowner with an at-home charging setup will find the E35 more than adequate-- most travels are well within range while anything farther out still the car gives enough battery capacity to carry you to the next charger on your journey.
An apartment dweller with no charging option available at work will appreciate the bigger battery in the E40.
@@BogeyTheBearyou, exactly why I got the 40. I can’t charge at home lol although I will got the professional pro assistance.
This is maybe 17-20k CAD more than the new Model 3 RWD. That's a lot of money. It's hard to justify up here in Canada.
Come on. To someone who likes driving Tesla isn’t even a competitor to BMW. If you have to think about that money, you are not a bmw customer.
@@Alexander711 🙄
We don’t want a car that takes you to the market and back home. Hybrids is the way to go.
In my i4 E40 M-Sport, I can hop down to visit my sister in L.A., go back home, pull into the driveway before realize I forgot my coat and have to drive all the back. At that point then I'll have to stop by the EA charging station just down the hill from her house in order to recharge above the 30% I'll need in order to get home again.
Hybrids is merely _one_ way to go.
New Review of an old model 😅😅
Those 'old models' are asking for some sweet deals due to the change over slated for 2025. People are espousing the wisdom of getting a used EV rather than new, but new 2024's of all brands not starting with "T" and ending with "-esla" are going out the door at used prices while being physically new.
Well, the Facelidt has not been rolled out yet. The cars are pretty much the same.
