Painted in Dravit Grey, this 2025 BMW i4 had the optional M Sport Package and a new set of 19-inch, bi-color wheels (Style 996 M).
Of course, the laser taillights are the highlight on the i4 facelift, along with the new headlights. Inside, the 2025 BMW i4 gets iDrive 8.5, new seats and slightly redesigned air vents.

[@davidzvezda]

So old alcantara sensatec will be not available any more? Which one do you prefer that or this one?

[@bmwblog]

I think it varies by market. The sensatec is available in the US. I did like this new one.

[@waywardsoul4918]

Is this with shakedown line lights

[@rp3556]

I like previous version way more

[@_Atomic_impact]

This was The edrive 40? Also xdrive 40 next to basic 35 and m50 version ?

[@bmwblog]

eDrive40

[@thelifepolice]

Someone told me the m sport with shadowline will make the grille have the same grille with the m50. Is this true? Or the grille design in e40 will never change even with shadowline option?

[@bmwblog]

I think it's based on markets, so I don't know the full details

[@jlnmlng8372]

Car and outfit of Horatiu on point! 🙂 Thank you for this quick and nice review! 👍🏽 I hope that the charging infrastructure here in Germany will improve soon, then the eDrive 40 could be an interesting choice. Had a short test drive nearly two years ago, felt quite nice! Have a great Sunday! Greetings from Germany, Julian

[@bmwblog]

Danke, Julian :)

[@joelsilva2496]

Well done BMW!

[@waywardsoul4918]

Is this what the shadow line lights look like or this the standard?

[@bmwblog]

Shadow line

[@muggendorfer_f207]

When get the 1 series released, because so much cars are coming out but this is like 3 years old.

[@bmwblog]

This summer

[@girish9648]

I wish ground clearance was a bit higher

[@bmwblog]

It's because of the battery pack

[@Voxmagna]

0-80% in 30min, what are they using solid state batteries now?

[@bmwblog]

10-80% in about 30-32 min

[@patrickp6676]

It’s the same like now

[@carl_dtz1222]

I don't like the silver part they added on this calender

[@mbongenipuis2195]

I wish the 3 series had that ' flat bottom steering wheel'.

[@onlyh2684]

i thought that but if you look closely the centre of the steering wheel is not leather

[@bmwblog]

Maybe it will get the update this summer. There is one more facelift coming

[@abc123fhdi]

It will be interesting to see how well these EVs can compete with BYD in China, since they don't have any real competition outside of China where BYD is either overpriced or forbidden to sell cars.

[@bmwblog]

It will definitely be interesting

[@xxxaabbccxxx]

Poorly is the answer unfortunately. MB and BMW in total accounted for less than 10% of EV sales in China last year.

[@onlyh2684]

so no more leather central part og the steering wheel thats a shame seems like BMW is cost cutting

[@_Atomic_impact]

Agree. I like The design But The center is a shame 😢

[@onlyh2684]

@@_Atomic_impact yep seems like the best opton would be the g20 m340i id7

[@kardkovacsi]

I'm so happy that my order has been enqueued for production, 26th week which is the last one before the LCI. I do not like the new headlights, it looks really weird as the lamp was designed for two projectors but the LCI version has only one and the other one's place is just an empty hole.

[@MaxwellX777]

The new LCI is a mockery to me. BMW has become less customer-oriented. What kind of LCI? The laser taillights that are only available with the M Sport Pro package for €4,000? Or the high-gloss black kidney grille frame, which is no longer available separately for €220? The steering wheel with the plastic horn cover instead of being fully leather-wrapped? And everything will be significantly more expensive. BMW is just trying to sell the version with the M Sport Pro package, otherwise the 4 Series Gran Coupé looks terrible. (this is just my personal opinion)

[@NomadJedi]

BMW continuing its trend of sticking M badges on as many items as possible, it seems. Also, I can't imagine CSL owners being too happy with their taillights now being put on to e40 models

[@bmwblog]

Fair enough. Not sure how they are bundled in each market.

[@EagleWolfSparrow]

Some one please EXPLAIN why is USA i4 doesn't have cool SEAT and ALSO the AUTO TOWING HITCH? USA BMW sucks!

[@bmwblog]

The towing is likely a regulation thing

[@EagleWolfSparrow]

@@bmwblog I see, but a lot USA customer would love to have it, 3500 lb isn't a lot. It just make non sense to me Q_Q Isn't that also why Rear BMW i4 have air suspension to adjust height for tow lol

[@MrBigBlue76]

Why the heck is it shown in China? I hate that since a while BWM is only focusing on China market and does not care anymore about Europe. I am very disappointed in BMW!

[@bmwblog]

Because there is no other European auto show. So they had to show it somewhere. Paris Motor Show will have other things
