TT:   / downshift_media   Website: https://downshiftmedia.us/ -- 0:00 - Intro BAD: 0:23 - The platform This point isnt so much bad as it is just an inefficiency The i4 is built on the same chassis as the gas 4 series - adn the gas 4 series has a great chassis so it’s good starting place. BUT then you adapt a gas chassis to an EV you inherently leave some wasted space Like under the hood there’s no frunk so additional storage The center console area is maybe more cramped than it otherwise would be And the rear seats have the drivetrain tunner hump in the floor for a drivetrain that doesn’t exist Does it really affect the drivability or usability of the car? No not at all - but just something to understand 1:07 - Range This is something that I’m not personally upset about, but something that has to go on this side of the video due to some other offerings The i4 here has a single motor for RWD This isn’t uncommon for the base or long-range version of an EV But range here is rated at 301 miles Again, not bad on the face of it HOWEVER, the Tesla Model 3 long range gets 333 miles of range and that DOES have AWD The Hyundai Ioniq 6? 361 miles of range in RWD form So again, 301 miles isn’t BAD but it’s not the best you can get…and then if you get the bigger, better looking 20 in wheels your range goes down from there…that said those two mentioned arent exactly BMW competitors 2:00 - Rear seats This is another product of the adaptation of a gas chassis car But when they put the batteries in they put them in the floor which raises the floor and makes the rear seats a little less spacious than they already were HOWEVER they’re still reasonably practical for myself at 6’1 They can be heated And They have climate zone and vents Not perfect, but not bad! Let’s talk good stuff - GOOD: 2:36 - The trunk All i4s are built off the Gran Coupe body style which means they’re all liftbacks Which means max practicality And it is, cuz the cargo space here is pretty big Weirdly you cant drop the rear seats from the trunk AND you get an emergency release despite this being a hatch because the privacy cover is hard Gotta love the hatch practicality 3:07 - The Drive With the single motor and RWD here this i4 is packing 335 hp Easy and familiar driving experience A little zippier than the Audi etrons but just as smooth Great damping Good cabin isolation I think the power makes sense for the price non M people don’t need access to more power Can do drifts with traction off but grip is really good with the added weight Could certainly drive this in the winter with the right tires It’s fun, it feels spunky and smooth! 4:28 - Tech And just like ou’d expect, this thing is loaded with great tech features iDrive 8 Totally new dash design Curved screen Interestingly the gas 4 series has the old screen setup ACP & AA 360 camera Widgets 360 cameras Reverse assist Full digital cluster Not to mention the robust driver assist suite which is pretty great 5:06 - Logos This is a small thing but i kinda like the unique nature of the blue logos here Like toyota, BMW identifies their electrified stuff with blue on logos BUT this is a full EV Front and back wheels Shifter Start button Steering wheel A smaller detail but pretty neat 5:32 - Luxuries This may not be the most expensive BMW, but it’s still a BMW and it’s still plenty lux The built is super solid The materials are nice and some are even recycled Your seats have lumbar adjustments They’re heated They’re cooled The steering wheel is heated The rear seats can be heated You’ve got a big sunroof AND it’s just really smooth behind the wheel 5:55 - Sounds This is another smaller thing but something that I think kinda makes the experience This has the iconic sounds composed by Hans Zimmer From when you start the car and turn it off it makes cool sounds On power it makes cool sounds I mean I know people have feelings about sounds in EVs but if you’re gunna have them you might as well get the guy that did interstellar to compose them 6:42 - Price This one is kinda hard to talk about because there aren’t a lot of true competitors out there for this thing Mercedes has their EQE but that’s bigger and way more expensive We’re not pretending the Teslas are luxury cars They ioniq 6 is not in the same segment So all the sudden the 56k starting price and 61k as tested price seem fairly reasonable…and with that lets get into the final thoughts 7:11 - Outro
