Hey man I’ve been following your videos for a couple months now and I just want to say keep doing what your doing! I love your style and visuals. Very good man
Thank you!
The filming and editing of this was great! Intuitive info and very detailed. Great video 👏🏽
Really well shot, and perfect editing to go along with the pacing and material!
Such an amazing video Sam! Wonderful quality and shooting
The video quality and editing looks so much better than before! Congratulations!
Thank you
Love the production quality on this video !!
really great vid, awesome videography and editing!
Great video and very well shot!
Camera angle was outstanding, amazing review sir❤
I think I watched every i4 video out there. Like you style, short and concise. You are one of the few reviewers who get that the M50 does not aim to compete with M3 or M4, like you said it is more like an M340. I only test drove the e40 and iX x50. Will pick up my M50 at the BMW Spartanburg Performance Center on August 4th. Only a few days left.
How do you like it?
Pero es un terrible auto no lo compren ni en el dealer saben como arreglarlo
I love what you doing, keep up the great reviews.
Cool video, thank u😎
Great video, thanks for sharing 👍
Very nice video quality and very informative
Great car, even better video. Production is on point
☺️
Great videography, beautiful car
Thank you Sam. Very good review👍
Great review and great hat! Thanks for giving me a chance to drive this car. The launch system was kinda bonkers. Fun car! Definitely a nice option for those looking at the most "normal" EV when comparing to the experience of an ICE car.
it looks even better in person, although it would look even better if it had wider fender flares like the M3.
Great video! Very good presenting, short, infomative and to the point, while also getting a lot of information through. awesome editing as well, really liked how you present the key info in the video. Ended up subscribing.
I have waited almost a year now for this car.
Ordered pretty much exactly the same car as you reviewed, i4 m50 with pretty much all extras except heated rear seats (i forgot to tick it 😅). Same color but with vernasca cognac leather M sport seats.
Still no production date, but the dealer estimates delivery in august/september.
So for now i am scouring youtube daily for new videos of the i4.
Welcome
You have a year behind, I have a year ahead. Lucky you
Thanks for posting. Love my 2024 i4 M50.
Mine ( metallic portimao blue with cognac interior with carbon fiber trim) just got delayed till after the new year. You were describing the Hans Zimmer composed sound with the acceleration. I drove the base model recently as my dealership doesn't have an M50 on hand. Even that car was brilliant. I love the curved screen and iDrive 8. I will miss the 1-8 buttons I have on my 328ix.
Where are u located ? Did they say why ?
I have one on order. Be prepared to wait 8 to 12 month's to get this car. But I think it will be worth the wait.
I agree with you about the looks of the car and the build quality. If I was in the market for an EV this would likely be the car.
Great review partner. I actually did not know that this car even existed. It does look pretty slick. I agree with you, Teslas look quite bare on the inside especially for the price. I would do the BMW over a Tesla as well.
I totally agree ..BMW has my money on it ...amazing machine and great look
This car is a great example for other car manufacturers to follow, too many manufacturers make their EVs hideous and undesirable by trying to make them stand out from their gas cars
Agreed
BMW on the other hand makes their EV undesirable by having poor handling...why else does this twelve minute review only show it driving in a straight line...poor cargo space, poor rear seat space, poor efficiency and range.
BMW i4 is a CHEAPLY made car using a 3 series GAS car body and OUTDATED bev Platform. It only got 4 of 5 SAFETY stars.
@@markplott4820 naw, the i4 is a lot worse than that. It is made on a brand new "shared" platform BMW wasted five years and buckets of money developing in order to be able to make a pretty lousy EV on the same production line as their ICE car version. This way, see, BMW has the "flexibility" to meet the "unpredictable" demand, which obviously will start out decent and steadily decline into "really, BMW still makes the i4?"
@@tribalypredisposed - just get a Unplugged Performance model 3P Acention .
My choice also, but tried to order one and was told a two year wait. Should I cancel my Tesla Y order which is coming in 3 months and wait?
Good video 👍🏾
Thank you
A weapon of a car, incredible fun to drive and a cracking daily.
great car, I wonder if there would be an estate of this model
can you do K5 GT vs Fusion sport?
I would appreciate so much to see a review with a standard M50 model, not with all options
Wow the production of this video is top notch! Shot beautifully!! I would love to see more of this quality!
Thank you
I drove one at a BMW Autocross event in June. My daily is an M340i, and holy crap! The i4 M50 is a screamer. We ran with the regen on, and while it takes a lap to get use to it, I really liked it. This could be my next BMW
Same here
You mean you were screaming, right? Because of… electric car… wait no, forget it! Lol
Waiting for the EV6 GT and IONIQ 6 N to arrive
Had my eye on the 430i gran coupe but the i4 M50 is compelling
Nice car! Order now, and in a year or two, it will be yours 🥳
Picking up my I4 E40 soon.
Congratulations
@@SamCarLegion Thanks, was no small task finding one when I did not pre-order.
Every car has a driver ...... and all drivers are different ..... hence the massive market and more to come, from more manufacturers and models, thank goodness !
Gorgeous car
Agreed
I like this car a lot, I really do. The performance is there, the battery range is good, the interior is standard BMW quality. The only gripe I have with this car is that it shares the exact same platform as a gasoline 4 series grand coupe which comes with the center hump in the rear seats. Also, I am not a big fan of the rear quarter and rear look for this vehicle. For $84k, I need it to look different than a M440i Grand coupe. Every review says this is as fast as a M3/M4 in a straight line which I don't doubt but wait 'til you hit corners in this 5000lb machine, that hefty weight will be the biggest enemy to having this feel nimble. In everyday driving, I think the edrive40 is plenty good even being just rwd.
that s the point, this is a petrol car ev conversion, it isn t a true ev from the gound up, I wonder if they are selling a lot of them
I have one. Great car. The weight is there, but it still corners like it's on rails. Braking too. Disks and regen combined works brilliantly.
I'm wondering how many actually delivered as 2022 model year for 73k, I have never seen one other than the tester. I'm on the list for 2023 for 76k.
Rarely people order base
I drove this thing a couple of weeks ago. The power delivery felt like my Nissan LEAF….on Bigtime steroids!!! 😂
But seriously, it’s one of the quickest cars I’ve ever experienced and probably the quickest Bimmer I’ve driven to date. 😮
agreed
The Germans make EV's that aren't appliances.
I'm not here to save the Planet.. I'm Super Happy with my 2022 G82 Competition XDrive
Fair enough
Preferred the drive of the model 3, much lighter and you can feel the weight difference.
Not to mention the range difference, price difference, storage capacity (no front trunk here🤦🏾♂️), more backseat room (why does this have a transmission hump?🤦🏾♂️), and the better battery technology
I wish they would make the i4 in a coupe variant
Soon
I think I4 M50 in terms of performance and overall car happiness is located between M3/M4 and M340i/M440i.
It's way quicker than M340i/M440i despite being very heavy. Acceleration is insane and steady.Great car. Real enthusiast's car unlike Tesla.
Yes. Now convince the stodgy stalwarts of gas performance cars the undeniable benefits of electrics. I think it won’t be long before they come to their senses.
“Real enthusiast’s car” LOL
@@philorgneopolotin8762 I guess you never drove one!
The Tesla is much better in every aspect imaginable with the exception of styling, which is subjective
Just traded my model 3 performance in for this got tired of the minimalistic dull interior and this looks just far more sleek and aggresive. Someone said my m3p looked like an egg and that hit me hard 💀
Would Def be my ev choice hands down.
Such a good car
Sweet shirt miami ready
Sam you are looking like a Spanish 👑. You are awesome. I love when you say “ he’s catching up” . Your channel has grown on me. You have come a long way. I am so proud of you.
Thank you
The Taycan is a great choice too.
Agreed
@@SamCarLegion Yes, but the Taycan starts at $126,000CDN and ROCKETS up from there. You probably wouldn't want one with zero options.
I like these vids more that the head to head races
German engineering
It really just sounds like the Canadian pricing for the Tesla is outrageous. It is SOOO MUCH less expensive here in the states even though it doesn’t get the tax incentives here. At $84k I can understand why people would look elsewhere in Canada. That isn’t the case in the US though.
the teslas interior is also sad, and only having a screen in the center is pathetic, and of course, styling is poor. no thanks! and in US their supercharger network isn't much of an advantage, not overall at least, the fastest trips across the US in EV's are all held by other cars(taycans, hyundais) due to more available faster charges, and out of spec motoring did a great video racing 5 EV's from colorado to las vegas, taycan and ioniq 5 were way ahead, model X long range(WTF) and model 3 coming in behind them
@@roboticvenom1935 the interior is subjective. Some people like minimalist others don’t. Both have their merits. As far as the Out of Spec test goes, of course the Taycan won. It is specifically designed to charge ridiculously fast at the expense of longevity. That battery won’t last charging like that. The Model 3 wasn’t even trying. They stopped for something like 30 minutes to switch drivers and I believe they even started later. They took their time too. All of the other drivers were actually trying to win and they said that in the video.
@Catholic Firefighter so why is the BMW so much less expensive in Canada than the Tesla? If it was just the exchange rate then the BMW would cost much more.
@@LearningFast Tesla comes straight from America, bmw doesn’t
We Canadians pay too much for everything. Don't forget our high taxes too.
Nice colour. Wheels too small looks odd. I'm glad they didn't give it wild styling except for that oversized grille. If it had the smaller kidney grille would be quite handsome!
You know...too much money for me that's hellcat range!
Take a shot every time Sam says "M". You'll be super drunk 😂
😂😂
At 100% charge, this car makes 580kms at 80/90 km/h in highway . And more than 600km in the city.
I love this for the sole reason it doesnt look like an EV. Finally an EV that looks like a normal car. Not like these new hideous looking EVs some manufacturers are putting out
Tesla needs to take note of what interior build quality is supposed to look like.
BMW needs to take note on how to make electric vehicles in general.
No front trunk, why?
Transmission hump in the back, why?
Horrible range, why?
Low top speed, why?
Least amount of tech from any EV at the price point, why?
More expensive than the number one EV on the planet, why?
@@TheDougSpotwho cares about any of that when a car looks better and has actual luxury for its interior and better tech. Also this car is faster then my old model 3 performance. U can justify away I was just like u end of the day get ur money up and get better.
@@user-my4xu4gf1z
A lot of people care, that’s why teslas are the top selling cars and BMW is struggling to move their EVs.
Also, I drive a Mercedes and have a 911 GTS on order, so you can keep your “get ur money up and get better” comment to yourself👍🏾
I like your Sunglasses which model is it?

@@SamCarLegion Thanks I think Its Wayfarer 😀
I think too
I get my I4 M50 in September and I cant wait 😂
Amazing- congratulations
Great car but quite pricey. They’re going for 70-80k here in the states.
That’s because dealers
So what's the option of getting the m50 if you need to drive conservative because you need all the time to be afraid of the range. What's going to happen in the winter time when you will get only 60-70% range because we live in a freezer🥶. It's better just to by the i4 e40 with more range, or to go with the G80 EV that will give you more luxury, more space and range. I will wait for the new Ioniq 6.
The e40 is a good option too - but the M50 😍😍
@@SamCarLegion i know we like the extra power and traction. Have a good weekend.
g80 EV true!
For regular trips e40 is very fast, M50 is just insane. I drove e40, mooore than enough for civil roads
I have the m50 with 20" 868m wheels. On longer journeys I get 460km range. In freezing temperature "yes I drove it several weeks with freezing temperature's on 20"summer tires" it still managed good range. Around 380-400km.
Better price if you add fsd to m3p. Lol. Ok fair comparison since bmw has no fsd
FSD is a joke. It's a very basic distance and lane keeping crap. The BMW driving assistant professional is much better and more advanced than FSD. Go check some comparison videos. Tesla is years behind BMW in self driving.
Just drove one today, liked the way it drove and the quality. I might order , but it’s just not the same man. my tesla model 3 performance just feels like such a spaceship compared to this. IDK. driving wise I feel they are similar in a sense, quality wise BMW wins, tech wise tesla.
So recently (i drive a M3P 2019 model), i started to use the track mode daily. Traction controll (ESP) completely off, F40%/B60% power delivery. This car is the perfect tool, its so nimble and insanely fast and hinestly the best in handling. Watch the latest video from "RSymons RSEV", he KNOWS these cars as he compared and OWNS them all.
These is also an error in the video, the presenter claims a 0-60 time of 3.3 seconds, while it actualy 3.6 seconds (see video proof of carwow, measured with timing gear) BMW is claiming 3.9 seconds themselves. The car only achieves this 3.6 seconds when traction allows for it, it's a heavy boy and struggling a lot for tracktion, far more than the lighter Tesla M3P (which is capable of 3.2 seconds, even in the rain).
Even in this video, he started the launch at 3:10, and at 3:15 we still see 98 KM/h in the dash. So again, proof that this 3.3 seconds is wishfull thinking.
Regarding the tech, there is a abbreviation used nowadays, its "LAL"... It stands for Legacy Automaker Lag. Going back from a Tesla to a system with LAL.. No way.
I think he correctly stated that Car and Driver tested the M50 at 3.3 seconds. Most people agree that BMW’s claim is very conservative. Not sure if I would feel a difference between 3.3 and 3.9.
@@marissaerbeldinger-bjork5285 and why do you think that when all other UA-cam review show something else, his own video shows something else. Do you simply 'want' to believe?
And be sure about this: you will feel the difference between 3.3 and 3.9, it's 15% faster, so it's 15% more G's on your body.
@@Maarten_vd carwow also got a 3.3 second 0-60 time. Bmw officially claim 3.7 seconds here in USA. Interestingly enough, the i4 beat the model3p 0-60. U have to remember, unlike every other manufacturer, Tesla measure their 0-60 on a rolling start a foot over the line!! Bizarre but true.
@@SamfromSparta the I4 definitely does not beat the m3p 0-60 or quarter mile. Look it up, dozens videos about that.
They are both sick fast.
Where the I4 is faster is the acceleration from 60 to its topspeed.
eh........I still love petro, but EV is not fast??? My wife just got a model s plaid, and that thing is scary....literally scary
Some EVs
I can confirm this is much less than the model 3 performance. we are waiting for ours to be delivered. Cannot wait! Maintenance will be cheaper with bmw as it’s included and Tesla tires are over double the cost as the tires on the i4 m50!
Congrats
I'm glad to see this as a solid opening salvo against the bland and soulless Tesla entries.
Hope to see it improve in further iterations.
"Faster" is a cloudy term. An M3 will smoke this thing around a track.
It's great, it's just 40% more money than a LR Model 3 that is the same speed and missing some things it has. Hard to justify
Did you actually say at the beginning of the video that EVs are not fast?!!
Not all EVs are fast. Yes a 100k car will always be fast. Model 3 base is slow, Kona EV base slow asf, Chevy Bolt etc. In your mind you are probably thinking Plaid, Taycan etc, those high performance vehicles. Also most EVs once you pass 100kmh or 60mhp, they slow down to save battery. So yes not all EVs are fast
@@SamCarLegion Tesla Model 3 (esp Performance), Polestar 2, Mustang Mach e GT…and even non performance models like the ioniq 5 and EV6, Model 3 & Y LR.
EVs are usually faster than their equivalent ICE cars.
So it's not as fast as a Tesla and it has much less range, but it has a nicer interior. Also, you neglected to go over the technology much. This is a huge factor is EV car purchase decisions. I imagine the Tesla has more tech stuff as well.
It’s as fast as a Tesla - and it has better interior, it drives far better than a plastic tesla.
@@SamCarLegion Teslas are a a full second quicker. Also, calling the Tesla plastic only reveals your bias. Reviews should be honest and unbiased.
@@dangercat8919 0-100 km/h is pretty close between Model 3 and i4, i4 however is quicker on 0-200km/h and onwards because of higher torque, that s why i4 is quicker on rolling start as well. And i4 does have: line assist, line changing assist, auto parking and OTA. The infotainment of i4 is more refined than Model 3, also better fit and finish. Model 3 has longer range but if you opt for the i4 xdrive40 you get range over 500 km.
@@SamCarLegion
All sources say otherwise.
Seems like you have a bias against Tesla for some reason🤔
@@TheDougSpot hey buy a Tesla. Stop wasting time here :)
Your out of your mind, considering the fact that if you have the awd the amount of range you lose is insane and not to mention the charging network that they don't have in place yet. And the fact that it's a ice car with a battery stuffed into to it, which really means it's really not a new from the ground up ev
Jay Leno with a normal chin.
I prefer the BMW I4 M40, less weight and cheaper
Not fast? Most EVs on the road are faster than the average petrol engine vehicle.
Bmw still thinks the front end looks good 🤦♂️. Much better looking then all EV’s except Teslas.
had the opportunity to drive one and was impressed when comparing to competition and price. I think if I used one of these as a Daily I would be replacing tires every few months lol.
you should try a 2022 TESLA model 3 PERFORMANCE , nothing like it on EARTH.

And that’s how you make an EV, unlike that knock off ipad on wheels, the cheap, fugly, dated Tesla M3 that looks that a cheap 1970’s Nissan.
You sound pretty bias on BMW. Last week you and Gv60. It cost 79000$ and it can self park, faster charging, concierge service with Genesis. Your BMW cost 84000$ it doesn't even comes ventilated seat. Never mind the cramps space you didn't comment on the leg and center tunnel, No shades for passengers. Let's drag the gv60, i4, Tesla. See what happen.
The GV60 will be 6 busses behind. The driving dynamics of the i4 M50 vs the GV60- is like comparing a restaurant burger to McDonald’s, yet paying the same price. I challenge you to take drive both the same day and come back. Cheers
No one in their right mind purchases a Chinese car. The BMW is a vehicle that can be viewed in multiple perspectives and masters the various perspectives. Providing passenger comfort to driver oriented performance, that cheap Chinese car shouldn’t even be considered as a car when compared to the BMW.
How can this Bloke kick off with EVs “not fast”. S Plaid? The useless central heating radiators waste effort. My Model 3 is just as fast as this BMW.
EVs are “not fast”… uhh, the fuck nonsense statement is that? Many EVs are just as fast as the m50 and a LOT lighter too because the i4 is not a dedicated EV platform, it’s a converted 4 series GT
Did he say EVs are not fast? Lol what.
Yeah Tesla design is garbage 🗑. Inside Tesla looks like old ford plain interior
That orange reflector is so ugly, I would take it off
I guess, if you like a million buttons, wide screen so you can see your speed in 10 different places but can't even watch a movie or play games while you charge, and specially if you need to hear fake ICE engine noises and see fake useless vents, grills and rear diffusers made for pipes and not for aerodynamics.... This is the car for you... But hey to each their own. 🤷♂️
You lost credibility in the first 10 s when you said EVs are boring. Have you driven some powerful Teslas? If you had you’d realize you are talking out of your behind. What is boring about 3 sec 0 to 100?
This basically has none of the benefits of either an electric car, or a fuel car🤦🏾♂️
No front trunk, transmission hump in the back seat, very short range, slow top speed, and it’s quite overpriced.
Frunk not necessary when you have a hatch back; 270+ mile range is plenty (ample charging network & growing); top speed of 142mph is more than enough (its not a track car) and $70k is reasonable compared to Tesla & BMW prices. That said it's not targeted for every buyer.
@@obieWanmotivation
I’m not sure what numbers you’re looking at, but compared to Tesla, this is overpriced.
1. The charging network is nowhere near ample; the only network that is viable is the Tesla supercharging network.
2. 270+ theoretical miles of range vs teslas 300+ confirmed.
3. Again, no front trunk, and huge transmission jump in the back when there’s no transmission.
4. The Tesla model 3 has more range, more storage, better charging network, more legroom, better acceleration, higher top speed, and is $20,000 cheaper😂😂😂
@@TheDougSpot Yet, the BMW i4 M50 & Porche Taycan costing $50,000 more than BMW have year long waiting lists.

That was the most pathetic acting with the breaking.
Twelve minute video, no footage of this obese car driving on a curve at all. Just going straight. Driving on curvy roads is pretty standard for reviews of cars, but not for this BMW. Why do viewers suppose that review after review of this BMW show a world of only straight roads?
I agree with you. But unfortunately, track use isn’t permitted
@@SamCarLegion find a review of a BMW with a gas engine that does NOT have footage on twisty mountain roads...it will be hard, one of the big selling points of a BMW is the handling. But BMW have managed to keep the handling of this car under cover...
Costs more than a Tesla Model 3, weighs 1000 pounds more than the Model 3, has 100 miles less range (a lot less), has no more passenger room than the Model 3 and, last but not least, has NO frunk.
You would have to pay me to buy a Tesla - horrible quality. Their range is not close to what they claim, the interior can’t get close to a Corolla, their paint job is done by kids, the road noise is better only with Bose noise canceling headphones. It’s more money in Canada, the ride quality and comfort is better in a shopping cart, and don’t get me started on how ugly they are on the outside.
@@SamCarLegion I own a Tesla Model 3. Your claim about the range is false. Published Quality ratings count automatic over-the air software updates at home as recalls, making the quality appear less good than it is. Sandy Munro rates the seats of the Model 3 as the most comfortable of all EVs.I have had my Model 3 for 3.5 years with no problems.

They can't produce an EV at profit so they skimped on quality components in internal build. This car demonstrates BMW failing. But I get it, man. You're not tuned in to follow the micro or macro economic indicators, so as long as the deck chairs look tidy on the Titanic, all is rosy in your view.

I have been very interested in the BMW i4 M50, BUT I am very concerned how busy the already inadequate CCS DCFC network , in Canada, is going to be in a year or two. Every one of the dozens of new EVs coming to market now are all going to be trying to fast charge at those stations that only 2 or three chargers at a time. They need to wake up and start to, like Tesla, build stations with 8-20 chargers each. This is especially true when many of those non-Tesla cars can only charge at about 50kW.
Model 3 is quicker, faster, better-looking, much lighter and more fun.
bmw vehicles are trash. Car and driver, Edmunds, and consumer reports all agree. Plus the two I owned were both trash, never again. I've had three Lexus vehicles for the last 8yrs , not one problem not even a starter.
