A BMW14 with 530 Horsepower
A BMW14 with 530 horsepower can accelerate to 100 mph in four seconds: The BMW 3 Series and 4 Series models continually set the bar for their segments in the premium market when the perfect balance of performance and ride comfort is required.
The new BMW i4 will shortly fill this position in the lineup of electric automobiles.
The first 4-door Gran Coupé with only electrical power enhances local emission-free mobility with pure driving pleasure.
Project manager David Alfredo Ferrufino Camacho says, “For the first time, we’ve designed a BMW with sporting DNA for solely electric driving entirely from scratch.” The BMW i4 is entirely electric and offers everything that BMW is known for.
The final phase of driving dynamics testing for the BMW i4 is completing a few months before its world debut.
Here, the emphasis is on the integrating application of all drive and suspension parts, ensuring that the electric motor’s spontaneous power delivery is coupled with flawlessly balancing ride comfort.
Precisely controllable handling in every circumstance, fascinating cornering dynamics, and optimized traction in all weather and road conditions.
Purpose
- The BMW Group uses its technological know-how in the areas of drive and suspension acquired through years of experience for the goal of this fine-tuning procedure.
- It gives the new BMW i4 a sophisticated luxury character and creates an exceptional driving experience in the market.
Driving a BMW i4 while sprinting
The BMW i4’s electric motor offers outstanding acceleration maneuvers, with a maximum output of up to 390 kW/530 horsepower. From a complete stop, it takes just four seconds to reach 100 km/h.
At the same time, the nearly silent driving as well as advanced suspension technologies provides the sensation that the car is freely floating even at more incredible speeds. It is utterly unaffected by neither the road imperfections nor the challenging traction conditions.
Effortless precision:
- All these factors were carefully considered when the powertrain and suspension components were merged to maintain the signature BMW athletic flair in any driving environment.
- Optimal road contact is continually ensured by the suspension and damping systems’ design and tune.
- The nearly silent drive-in and cutting-edge suspension system provide the sensation as if the car is freely floating even at more incredible speeds. It is utterly unaffected by potholes or poor traction conditions.
Typical BMW:
- The BMW i4’s unique driving dynamics are partially due to its performance qualities not being sacrificed for comfort. The Gran Coupé, which is entirely powered by electricity, is distinguished by its unrestricted adaptability for daily use.
- The BMW i4’s chassis technology is built for long-distance comfort. It is equipped with a high-voltage storage system. It uses the most advanced battery cell technology to provide a variety of up to 600 kilometers (WLTP).
- According to project manager David Alfredo Ferru-fino Camacho, “the BMW i4 communicates the sensation of being light and agile yet substantial and authoritative.”
- “It seems to physically cling itself to the road. This is possible with its exceptional directional reliability and high level of cornering stability. All electric cars have quick, straight-line acceleration capabilities. But at BMW, that’s not good enough.
