.............................................................
Here it is, the first fully electric car to receive the BMW M division treatment… Introducing the BMW i4 M50!
Mat’s got his hands on this all-new M EV and he’s taking it on a test across Germany to see if it can really go toe-to-toe with some of BMW’s best petrol-powered performance cars.
Want to know the basics? Well for starters, there’s no denying that the i4 looks seriously impressive & can easily match up to the M3 in the style stakes. The interior is equally just as nice, but then again, it’s no surprise given it’s built on the same platform as the M3.
As for performance, well the i4 M50 can once again match up to the M3, delivering a power output of 544hp & 795Nm of torque - both of which are increases compared to its petrol-powered compatriot!
So it can equal both the looks and the performance… But is it really just as fun to drive once you’re out on the open road? Well, there’s only one way to find out… Stick with Mat for his latest in-depth review!

All in all this is a top contender in the field !

    i really like BMWs and the other German car makers take on the EV transition. they know they need to start, and they've done it with an existing chassis to quickly get it out there, the familiar styling gives time for their other petrol cars a chance to phase out slowly/gracefully. the new few generation of these German EVs will be exciting.

    When things were at their very worst: 2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy. Scientists will say it was a global illusion. Beware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again. After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way. Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet - will seem to rise from the dead - will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one. One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist. Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent. "Many events, including ecological upheavals, wars, the schism in My Church on Earth, the dictatorships in each of your nations - bound as one, at its very core - will all take place at the same time." "Arab uprising will spark global unrest - Italy will trigger fall out" The Book of Truth

    I love the looks of this car. However, wouldn't it be better to compare this car to other EV's instead of comparing it to a M3 and then conclude it is not as much fun? :)

    Agree, and if he is comparing it to M3, he should also mention running costs that are way lower.

    Quick question, does it have a froot? Or what has the bonnet space been used for? Also, congrats Mat on having a new family member.
