ABOUT THE 2022 BMW I4 M50 GRAN COUPE (19 INCH WHEELS)
The 2022 BMW i4 M50 is the dual-motor performance version of BMW’s all-electric i4 (G26), launched for the 2022 model year alongside the rear-drive i4 eDrive40. It produces up to 536 hp and 586 lb-ft (795 Nm) with Sport Boost, using one motor on each axle for all-wheel drive and a single-speed transmission. This entry covers the car on 19-inch wheels, which gives an EPA-rated range of 270 miles (about 435 km).
The first electric M Performance car
The i4 M50 was BMW’s first battery-electric M Performance model. It is based on the 4 Series Gran Coupe body, a five-door liftback with four side doors. The battery offers 81.5 kWh of usable capacity and supports DC fast charging at up to 200 kW. Top speed is limited to 140 mph.
Wheel size matters
BMW offered the M50 with 19- or 20-inch wheels. The smaller wheels provide the longer range, while the 20-inch option lowers the EPA figure noticeably, so wheel choice is worth checking when comparing cars.
Practicality
The liftback tailgate opens to a large boot, and the cabin seats five, with rear headroom slightly reduced by the battery under the floor. Inside is BMW’s curved display and iDrive 8 system. The i4 is built in Munich, Germany.
Rivals
Its main rivals were the Tesla Model 3 Performance, Polestar 2 dual motor and Audi e-tron GT.
