2026 BMW i4 review

BMW i4: everyday electric done right. Illustrative review

9.2/10 OffLot expert score

The 2026 BMW i4 sits near the top of its class. Comfortable front seats on long trips; efficient in mixed driving. Road noise on coarse pavement and some features locked to upper trims, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $58,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

Exactly what we needed

Bought it for the a long commute and it has handled everything so far. Fuel economy has been close to the sticker in mixed driving.

★★★★★Grace D. · Columbus, OH · 15 months owned
Great daily driver

Replaced an older BMW with this one. Big step up in fuel economy; I'd like a little more rear headroom.

Exactly what we needed

We cross-shopped three others and this won on fuel economy. road noise on the highway is the trade-off.
