I'm right there with you, especially since the price of gas seems to be all over the place right now and looking like its going to go higher as time goes on

It's north of 100K. In Norway, where we don't pay fees or taxes on electric cars, the fully charged iX50 is about $115K (not fully, fully equipped). The iX40 is about $97 for the same package.

What about the i4?

No pricing on that one yet, it'll probably get published later today or tomorrow. My sales rep told me that from today they'd be able to config and order the i4 (today after the launch that is).

An Individual Manufaktur i4 M50 would be sweet...

Early leak
I hope it's fake because they could've done the "M" logo justice. What would it cost them to have the font the same size?

The i4 M50 fully equipped price must be less than a base Taycan, or it will be an i3 with 4 real doors.

Apparently COVID has caused smaller fonts to be manufactured. The M/// is recycled, they have a few laying around, but as for the number, only font size 2 was available.

Waiting for Autogefühl to actually show us the car...

InsideDK · 06-01-2021, 01:23 PM

I really hope the eDrive 40 will get the M Sport package. On the stream it sounded like the styling was only for the M50

Eric500 · 06-01-2021, 01:25 PM

So is this how BMW is doing reveals now...

Small glimpse in like March and very minor details in June... So when will the real details come? September?

Same here. I don't know what BMW is doing...
No Information about preordering, acceleration, charging speed, price etc.
And the webpage for the i4 hasn't changed since March.

Very disappointing

RedKloud · 06-01-2021, 01:39 PM

Got an email from my dealer... can preorder i4 and iX today after 3 PM PDT. Let's see...

Sounds good!
Maybe you can give us a few statements about prices, specifications and equipment later.

According to the Norwegian site, 600KM WLTP range, which is more like 400Km range really, and 4 seconds to 100KM/H.

On live stream it said 0-100 in under 6 sec for the eDrive 40. That was the only new info I saw

I just watched a video from my local aquarium.

That's what it felt like.

I think in terms of M-ness in comparison to gas vehicles the M50 will just sit above the M440 and under the M4. Due to the marketing material they call it the first M car. 540 horsepower is impressive though. If the battery is low to the floor should have a nice CG.

Yeah but these information seems not to be the final ones.
Every webpage of BMW said since months 530PS but in the livestream they said 544PS.
And BMW says 0-100 in AROUND 4 seconds, that is relative.
