Today, you are fighting for the electric heroes. BMW is typical of “get up early, catch up late.”

“Dear Morning” is a forward-looking work that launched i series such as i3 and i8 ahead of time. “Late Collection” is a delay in launching mass production products on pure electric cars. The new i4 is a concept car.

BMW’s positioning for the production version of the i4 is that the BMW Group’s first mid-range high-end pure electric four-door coupe. The production time is set to 2021, which is really a late episode. Although born late, the i4 is of great significance to BMW. Starting from the i4, BMW will truly inject its own electric drive technology into the BMW brand.

Mercedes-Benz has an EQC, Audi has an E-tron, and BMW has always leaned on the i3 in the pure electric car. The iX3 based on X3 is not an i-series. If it was said that the previous plug-in car was a “little kid”, then the i4 is really moving.

Expected “big nose”

The most memorable thing about i4 at first glance is the big nose that breaks into the eyes. Compared with the latest fuel brother X7 and 8 series, i4’s nostril size is more than equal. The current BMW design has a certain law: the older the age, the smaller the nostril; the younger the age, the larger the nostril. Even the electric i4, which does n’t have much demand for air intake, can not be charged., But the aura must be sufficient.

You can use the nostrils, but I have to have them, so that’s a big deal. The larger the grille, the more honorable it is.

An important point was also revealed on the concept car. The forehead above the i4 China Net witnessed the renewal of the blue sky and white cloud standard of the century-old glory of the Bavarian Machinery Manufacturer. The new standard adopts a flat design with the biggest difference. It is because the black background under the three letters of BMW has been cancelled. This is the sixth upgrade of the BMW Logo.

Speaking of the body, the short front and rear overhangs are the usual brush strokes of BMW. The most direct benefit of this design is that it is more visually sporty. Since the fuel age, sport has been the gene in BMW’s bones, and in the electric age, this is naturally retained. The former sportsman is slowly turning into Gu Jianuan. This is a change that BMW has witnessed. This i4 is also more practical than sports.

Long wheelbase, four doors, elements that are not accepted by agitated young people have been added. BMW, who has been in the market for many years, has lost its original waywardness, and the i4 is destined to no longer be a favorite of a few BMW is targeting the market where the general public is located.

As a concept car, the lines of the i4 are very clear, which is the so-called sculptural sense, and the transition between shape and surface is “braced”. The gas field created by the lines is not inferior to the impact of the big nose. The huge air intake on the front face and the slightly narrow laser headlights, coupled with the huge “double kidneys”, the elements of each part are i4 combined to form a fierce expression, or like a leopard looking at each other, ready to go hair.

Into the interior of the i4, you will find that BMW has already spoiled its ideas since i3.

Compared to the evolution of the i3, the i4’s display is larger, and the curved screen and steering wheel together form a simple and stylish interior that is popular at this stage. The four seats do not interfere with each other, and the pure white interior of the concept car adds a bit of sci-fi to the interior. However, the towering and raised platform in the back row is very eye-catching and incompatible with the current products of pure electric platforms. thingIn fact, the i4 is indeed built on BMW’s existing CLAR platform.

Do n’t just stare at the big nose, i4 can play well on hard power

In fact, the information about the i4 concept car was not much at the online press conference, and many details are yet to be announced at the time of mass production car launch. What is certain is that the new fifth-generation BMW eDrive electric drive technology of the i4 is very advanced.
