BMW i4 M50 - Test: Range, consumption, noise and acceleration

[@pa60pilot]

Nice job. Thanks for including the cabin noise levels.

[@JustMe99999]

The green is the best color on this car (especially with the tan interior).

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Yes, looks really good 👍

[@ErickVelasquez-k3y]

I honestly appreciate the hard work that goes into these reviews!

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Thank you, it requires a good amount of effort. I'm glad that you appreciate it..🙏😀

[@regulartxdude7813]

Thanks for your video. The range you reported is quite a bit higher than the claimed range and I wonder if you had an elevation decrease during your test miles? This would be something to note during the review regarding total elevation change from start to finish and it would be best to find as flat a route as possible.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

It's a flat and closed path so it starts and ends at the same spot. So the beamer really did it good and delivered exactly as the claimed WLTP.

Great Car with Automatic TOW HITCH but USA BMW didn't have TOW HITCH, sad. Great video :)

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

[@thomaseriksson3182]

Bra video,tack!👍

[@2TOKE69]

Snyggt! Så bmw har börjat kunna detta med elbilar. 💪

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Väldigt bra kompromiss. Är generellt skeptisk till elbilar byggda på fel plattformar. Men bmw har lyckats bra.

[@carlmartinlinder]

What app are you using to measure acceleration?

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Racebox mini 25 It's not an app. It's hardware.

[@carlmartinlinder]

15.5 kWh/100km is pretty damn good compared to what I’m used to.- even for the m50. We have an 2022 Audi Etron which uses 26 kWh/100 km. Not that good.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

The etron is known for its high consumption..And a mycket bigger car of course. But the i4 manages really good!

[@jaysen704]

Good Review

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

👍

[@AaronRandolphChen]

That is a beautiful dark green metallic, I must say. Car looks really good except for that nose. From my personal experience BMW 3 series and 4 series have never been the best in class for noise insulation. It probably doesn't help that the 4 series underpinnings and architecture were not designed exclusively for BEV, unlike the Chinese BEV cars you mention as a reference.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

True, always a compromise to build on non-dedicated EV platforma.

[@honesty_-no9he]

Sounds loud in there.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Yes, especially in the video..seems to be frequencies that the camera likes.

[@GM-lq7sw]

So....this car has 14km more range than the ET5T... Whats the price difference?

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

The fully specced et5t with the big battery is ~20k Euro cheaper than the fully specced m50. But that's is depending on the added equipment on the m50.

[@adamgentil2195]

Nice car by why is it the exact same size as a Tesla model 3 but weighs 446kgs more than the Tesla ?

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Yes, and less interior space and boot capacity

[@davesax11]

Quality of the BMW far higher than the Tesla. So yes, the body and frame weigh more. Along with everything else.

[@BogeyTheBear]

Why do you have to gently close the hood of a Tesla 3 with both hands to prevent a dent from forming in the metal?

[@thalesletus1]

since no one gave you a good answer i'll tell you why. the i4 shares the same platform as the petrol version. so you have a lot of things like a driveshaft tunnel that's completely useless and adds weight + take up space. shaves off on the cost as i believe the i4 should be more expensive than it is but then theres added weight

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

@thalesletus1 thanks for following up! 👍Issues with youtube Studio mixes comments up and I lose track.
