Range test

BMW i4

eDrive40

The BMW i4 eDrive40 went 599 km at 90 km/h in the summer test and ranks among the most efficient cars at both 90 and 120 km/h. It matches the Tesla Model 3 in efficiency despite weighing about 200 kg more, which points to a very efficient drivetrain. The basic test car had manual seats and no lane-centring assist, yet on tyres with fairly high sidewalls it felt comfortable and quiet even on rough asphalt. The standard sound system also impressed, scoring 7.7 out of 10.
