2024 BMW i4 xDrive40 Public Charging Test! /// Allcarnews

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

BMW loaned me this rather unique 2024 i4 xDrive 40 for a week with a gorgeous shade of Individual Mora Metallic ($4,500). Peel back the snazzy color, M sport packages and options, this i4 is unique as you can’t even get a 40 xDrive in Germany. After a week, it’s balanced blend of power, features, range, and AWD capability makes it likely the best i4 to buy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Highs:
+The i4 is simply gorgeous, and a fancy paint option makes it even better.
+I was impressed with the efficiency, coasting capability and fast charging speeds, especially for a non-dedicated EV platform.
+The interior is top tier well built, drive 8.5 is responsive and next level with technology baked in.
+It feels special, well built, intensely engineered, a true BMW experience.
Lows:
-Not necessarily a low but if you are expecting a performance car, this is not it. The xDrive40 drives like a well tuned and balanced Grand Tourer: good power, dynamic yet compliant suspension, quick yet light steering. The i4 M50 is the wild one for sure.
8.5/10
Dish out many exuberant options and a mid $60k price is not bad at all for this i4. I would consider one personally.

    14:00 the white dashed lines show the maximum power the charging station can deliver so in this case 150kW

    Charging infrastructure must improve before we can have EV's working at the level automakers are producing these cars. Damaged cables, INOP terminals etc. are all hindrances that must be addressed and regulated as ICE gas pumps are.

    Well Tesla superchargers are the only reliable ev charging station that is around and gladly a lot of the automakers are switching to NACS

    The charging infrastructure is improving but it doesn't help when videos focus on the minority of situations where there are issues which furthers an inaccurate narrative. I am a first time EV owner of the i4 M50 over the last 8 months and I have barely experienced charging issues with Electrify America (we get 2 yrs free charging) over 12,000 miles of ownership so far. Yes, there are some times when some of a charge station is out of service but that is where the app comes in handy to mitigate disappointments. With EVs you need to plan. Once I got used to it, I haven't had any major issues.

    5:08 Turning on the climate control shouldn't draw more than a kilowatt of power.
