BMW i4 G26 (1st Generation)

20222026 · G26 · liftback

Built on the CLAR platform — same shell as the G26 4 Series Gran Coupe with combustion gear swapped for an electric powertrain. eDrive35 / eDrive40 (RWD), M50 xDrive (AWD, 536 hp), and the i4 M60 with even more punch. 81 kWh usable battery in M50. EPA range varies wildly by config — verify the specific trim before committing.

Watch out: Curb weight (5,000+ lb on M50) eats tires and the standard non-staggered setup wears the rears faster than most owners expect. Charging speed peaks below most newer EV competitors. Brake regen feel is a hot topic on forums — some love the i-Pedal one-pedal mode, others find it abrupt.

Full clubhouse — owner Garage Lineage, common problems, year-by-year notes, and product picks — is on the build list.
