WATT MATTERS?

The i4 proves an electric BMW needn't be an SUV. Its familiar grand-coupe proportions give it a distinct appeal in a market crowded with high-riding alternatives.

THE BASICS

A five-seat electric fastback with rear-wheel-drive eDrive versions and more powerful all-wheel-drive M variants. Battery, range and charging specifications vary substantially across the line-up.

THE WATTCAR TAKE

One of the more interesting choices for drivers who still enjoy the feel and shape of a conventional sporting sedan. Compare the exact variant rather than assuming every i4 delivers the same range or performance.
