    I recently bought a BMW i4 eDrive 40. It is the best car I have ever owned and extremely happy with it.

    Great review. I liked your little challenge and especially that you used the voice recognition. Most reviewers do not even mention it let alone try to demonstrate it.

    I drive i4, and it's the best car I've ever owned, by far, no comparison, convenience of home charging, no gas station visit is just so great. Long road trip, scarce Electrify America (free for 2 years) location leaves much to be desired . . .

    Had my Ed40 a couple of months and my first EV. Really good car, very impressed with it so far

    Currently drive a BMW 330e MSport Touring looking to go full EV next time. Great review. 0nly regret… the loss of separate controls for climate control.

    Why Canada always say more Miles than USA version when Battery is same

  • @darrenrobertson2208
    @darrenrobertson2208 Рік тому

    Winter range is terrible, as is the range calculation software. Getting 240 miles from 80% charge when new. 1 year later, same time of year 180 miles. No change in driving style

    After more than 15 years of iDrive, the BMW Engineers die a little every time you call the iDrive Controller 'the scroll wheel'.

  • @nitramluap

    What really matters with EVs with respect to charging is this: how many kilometres/miles can you put in per hour. The % is irrelevant. And what affects this is how efficient the vehicle is. The i4 is more like a Model S in terms of efficiency so on the same 50kW charger, the i4 (or Tesla Model S/X) will gain 100km of range in 30 minutes... whereas a 2017 BMW i3 (or a Tesla Model 3) will get ALMOST TWICE that range after 30 minutes. It's the problem with big, heavy EVs that aren't very aero.

    The M50 version is not worth it. The torque steer is a dealbreaker.

    Good review, but the miles drive me crazy. I wish Napoleon had invaded Brittain (and made it metric)

  • @jonathantaylor1998
    @jonathantaylor1998 2 роки тому +2

    The BMW i4 does make for an exceptional EV - it's just a shame it's yet another £50k+ electric vehicle...!
    When are the legacy manufacturers actually going to start providing WAY more affordable EVs...?
    If they don't, the Chinese car makers will absolutely clean up in the sub-£30k segment, leaving the establishment scratching their heads...

    it will be a pig in the ice/snow due to its weight, its got terrible efficiency, and the real world range is just ok...

    • @hotrod182
      @hotrod182 2 роки тому +1

      Yeah but its top notch premium in the driving experience. A go cart can be light, fast and efficient, but not a great everyday driver. Besides EVs like Tesla with high EPA ratings sometimes barely beat out some of the German EVs with way lower EPA ratings. She said she got 320 miles real world, and you call that terrible? For a 4600lb solid, premium car, its perfectly fine.

      Stick a set of winter tyres on it and it will be fine. Besides, more weight in snow and ice is a good thing.
