BMW i4 eDrive40 M Sport

The BMW i4 eDrive40 M Sport is an electric saloon; we don’t yet have enough measured data to establish what distinguishes it from the field.

By eight years on the road it should still hold about 84% of its battery health, roughly 372 km of real-world range, which is a useful yardstick if you’re buying used. What owners say: Owners appreciate its composed ride, quiet interior and BMW construction quality, with many rating comfort favourably against the Tesla Model 3. Range drops substantially during winter, with several owners describing around 180 to 220 miles in cold and wet conditions.

What Owners Say

Positive

Owners Love

  • Owners appreciate its composed ride, quiet interior and BMW construction quality, with many rating comfort favourably against the Tesla Model 3.
  • The eDrive40 is widely considered the best balance: rear-wheel drive, lower weight than the M50 and the longest range.
  • Many owners describe around 280 to 300 miles from an eDrive40 in mild conditions, with efficiency reaching around 4 miles per kWh on gentle journeys.

Watch Out For

  • Range drops substantially during winter, with several owners describing around 180 to 220 miles in cold and wet conditions.
  • Tall adults have limited rear-seat space, with small doors and a floor raised by the battery beneath the cabin.
  • At about 2.1 to 2.3 tonnes it is heavy for its size, which owners notice during hard cornering and in efficiency.

Owner Tips

  • Try the rear seats during the test drive if tall adults will regularly travel in the back.
  • Inspect tyre condition and brand carefully; allow for a replacement set if tread is low, and favour smaller wheels for range.
  • Base winter trips on around 200 miles of eDrive40 range instead of its official WLTP figure.
