Built on a versatile vehicle architecture shared with the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe, the BMW i4 boasts a lower center of gravity than the BMW 3 Series. Its optimized aerodynamics, featuring a 0.24 drag coefficient, long wheelbase, and wide tracks, ensure a perfect balance between agility and comfort.

While the overall design resembles the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe, the BMW i4 distinguishes itself with unique BMW i Blue accents, notably on the largely blanked-off kidney grille. Standard features include 19-inch aerodynamic wheels with mixed tires, automatic LED headlights, front and rear park distance sensors, a rearview camera, an automatic tailgate, and rain-sensing wipers.
