    Thanks to RS Symons for lending us the Model 3: @RSEV
    Is the new BMW i4 better than the Tesla Model 3? Well, we’re here to find out!
    We all know that Tesla is easily the market leader when it comes to EVs, so Mat’s going to put these two cars through their paces to see which is the must-have everyday EV of 2022.
    Starting with the stats, we’ve got our hands on the range-topping i4 M50, which comes equipped with two electric motors to deliver 540hp. It’s also packing an 81kWh battery pack, and looking at recent performance, it’s good for a real-world range of 186 miles.
    Next up we have the range-topping Tesla Model 3 Performance. It’s also equipped with two electric motors, but it's down on power compared to the BMW, delivering 480hp. It comes packing a smaller 77kWh battery pack, too, but its real-world range is much more impressive - 265 miles!
    Once you step inside, both these cars come with equally impressive interiors. As with any Tesla, it’s a super minimal interior dominated with a massive infotainment screen on the dash. The BMW also comes equipped with a big screen, although it’s nowhere near what you'll find hogging the dash in the Tesla!
    So what do you think - is the i4 the must-have EV? Or would you still pick the Tesla? There’s only one way to find out for sure - stick with Mat for this all-new head-to-head!

    The reason you're getting so much slip in the m50 is because it's cold out and you have the high performance wheel package on the car... aka high performance summer tires. They effectively turn to plastic in cold weather. I imagine that would also have a nasty impact on handling as well. If you wanted to get better traction in colder weather, namely during your 0-60 run, you'd need an all season or winter tire with a tire compound that stays softer in colder temps.

    • @TheDanishSpaceman

    Correction, you can change the amount of regenerative braking. Also pro tip, regarding hands on the steering wheel detection, I blip the volume rocker up and down one tick rather than jerking the steering wheel back-and-forth. I found this way better. I have owned the model three performance for a couple of years and just love it. Tight handling on twisty roads combined with 0 to 60 of 3.1 seconds make it a fantastic car to drive. Agree with all the other pros and cons of this review.

      Ionity might be a joint charging network with BMW, VAG, Ford, Mercedes, Hyundai but they only have 15 locations in the UK. Along the west coast M1/M6 corridor there isn't a charger between Milton Keynes and Gretna Green making London to the Lake District and back impossible using only the Ionity network.

      These cars were stock, the most efficient mod for a performance model 3 is putting 18" wheels that are forged or magnesium for less weight which should get you 0.1s better acceleration (plus 20-30 miles more range), otherwise the only other mod is gutting the thing for weight savings but thats not practical.

    @CarToneHK 2 роки тому +5

    The suspension set up in the Model 3 Performance is quite poor, didn't realised it until I was rear passenger in one. Normally when driving in the driver's seat it's already a bit underdamped with far too stiff anti roll bars to try to mitigate the bodyroll, which is the wrong way as stiffer dampers would simply solve that without resorting to using stiff anti rollbars. This issue really exacerbates itself when I was sitting in the back feeling car sick, cause the dampers can't keep up with the fast steering ratio.

  • @Kelveron
    @Kelveron 2 роки тому +71

    The test based the range efficiency only on the miles covered so far by each car. Problem is we don't know how each car was driven, i.e. hard acceleration, motorway driving etc and over what distances. The fair way to compare their ranges is to drive the two cars over the same distance, route and conditions.

    For me personally the biggest issue I have with the Tesla is the lack of a display in front of you, other than that it has a lot going for it. Surprised by the acceleration times of the i4 since in previous tests it proved to be quicker than the Model 3 and even in your hands posted a 3.62s, maybe on that day it just struggled for traction off the line.

      I feel the same... but here is the thing... you aren't supposed to have your eyes glued to a screen in front of you. You are supposed to watch the road. It's a really tough decision in terms of user interface. The solutions that look cool are not safe and the safe solutions don't look cool. The only thing that Tesla messed up big time IMHO is the speed indicator. That should have been right in the center of the driver's visual range. That's the only information the driver needs constantly, unless we let "autopilot" chose the speed for us.

    22:54 you can see the car is in “Track Mode”. Track Mode actually cools the battery and significantly decreases straight line acceleration. The Tesla Model 3 should do 0-60 mph in 3.28 seconds if you just leave it in Sport mode and precondition the battery.

    For some markets of BMWs, the i4 accepts voice commands for climate control. "Hey BMW, set temperature to 18 Celsius." I assume he lives in England. No car is perfect. Both are great. Good to have alternative choices. I wish the Model 3 were a hatchback sedan though. I cancelled my order due to that. I had an used Model S for a while. It gets boring and annoying that you have to going through screens to just control the speed of windshield wipers. That is really backward. A software based company really has a lot to learn from other veteran car manufacturers since it is 50% hardware and 50% software. So both companies have to learn from each other and make better cars for us - the consumers - in the future. For now, I pass the Model 3. It lacks good easy controls for many functions. Controls that we use daily should be a one-touch process only, but using the central screen of the Model 3 means also taking eyes off from the road and many finger prints. Meanwhile, BMW needs to make its space more efficiently designed so that there is a more usable frunk and no central tunnel sticking up in the middle of the second row seats. For luxury and quality, BMW wins hands down. Both car appeal to people of different needs. I can imagine someone like me who is more hatchback inclined would love to buy the i4. However, to someone that don't need easy access to trunk such as my coworkers who don't even open they trunk in a month, those people probably don't care if it is a hatchback or not. Choices are great. Make more great cars for us - the consumers - please. Thank you.

      I see your point with the controls. The new UI in my Model 3 has it right though. Everything is where you need it. Having a China made Model, the Quality has gotten to the point where it is awesome. Of course the BMW still has a small leg up on this, but that in no way justifies the much higher price.
      I will likely get the i4 as a company car, so I will see where both stand.

Most of its life is spent on autosteer on motorways but, rarely, I have a trip on an empty twisty drivers' road. The M3P is a real point to point weapon . Not brilliant on a track near the limit, but great on roads. It's extremely comfortable, very quiet, has a low centre of gravity, excellent traction and good handling. The lift-off regen braking is very well calibrated and tucks the nose in going into bends. The traction and torque coming out of bends is superb. Like most electric cars it excels going up hills. Rarely get the opportunity but this is a very good driver's car.

However, the i4 M50 seems to be generally superior at higher speeds. There are videos of the i4 M50 doing 100-200 km/h in about 8 seconds. The Model 3 Performance takes about 11 seconds to do this. The i4 M50 is also faster than the M3P at 0-200 km/h.

    Even though I love BMWs, its a fact to say that they haven't nailed the character of an EV. It looks tacked on and unfinished by sharing the M3 body. I really wish BMW commit 100% and make a good looking EV with all the characteristics of one.

      there is n grill as Matt also said, it's just a design element, while Tesla keeps simple lines, Bmw went for their distinctive design. Plus sharing same platform with petrol engines it's obvious why they kept that.

      Yes, and in the US folks have done 11.4 many times as well. What is annoying is Carwow never discusses or shows the charge level of the EVs before the races...important, at least for most of them (not so much the Plaid for example; thing can do 9.9 in the 1/4 even at 20%!)

    I still own my fully modded E46 330 zhp 6 speed, but traded my stage 2 m235i xdrive for a Model 3 LR. I hate to say as I am a car guy thru and thru but I absolutely love my LR and have not missed my m235 since the day I handed Tesla the keys.
    M235 had KW coilovers, brakes, intake, intercooler and tune. The LR is just as quick if not quicker especially in mid range, except for over 100mph. Handles and brakes as well stock for stock but I will mod the suspension and brakes because I just always do.
    I struggle most days to grab the E46 keys. The Tesla really is that good. But of course when I want to really get the raw driving feel I do go for the E46 keys :)
