Affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, the Geneva Motor Show scheduled to open on March 3rd was cancelled. The BMW i4 pure electric concept car, which was originally planned to be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show, will be held online at 15:15 on March 3, 2020.
BMW i4 is positioned as an electric coupe. It is understood that BMW i4 will not have an independent electric car platform, but will be developed on the basis of the new generation of 3 Series (G20)/4 Series born from BMW CLAR platform, or adopt the design language of the new generation of 4 Series Gran Coupe. Mr. Adrian van Hooydonk, senior vice president of design of BMW Group, said: "The BMW i4 concept car extends electrification to the core of the BMW brand, and its design is dynamic, simple and elegant. In short, this is a perfect BMW that has achieved zero emissions. "
As the i4 whose product positioning is between i3 and i8, the appearance design of the new car is also between the two cars — — Not so sci-fi, and not completely succumbing to practicality. Or to put it bluntly, this car generally doesn’t look much different from the 4 Series — — It can also be understood that, after all, i4 can be regarded as an extension of the 4-series product line. However, as a pure electric vehicle, it is expected that the grille on the front face of i4 will not be too big.
At the rear, the new car seems to have some characteristics of BMW "GT" models. According to other information, i4 is expected to provide two driving forms: rear drive (i4 80 sDrive) and four-wheel drive (i4 80 xDrive), and the battery is also expected to provide 60 and 80kWh capacities. The fifth-generation pure electric vehicle technology adopted in this car will make the cruising range of this car between 550-700km.
