It’s actually pretty simple: the I4’s weight is a result of its designers’ and manufacturer’s inexperience with EV platforms.

The good (?) thing is that BMW isn’t alone in this - all of the legacy manufacturers’ current EV offerings are overweight compared to the state-of-the-art EV chassis on the market, and this has nothing to do with crashworthiness or luxury trappings.

They’ll figure it out, eventually.
