BMW was an early leader in the electric vehicle market, exploring the technology and how consumers react to it with itsand then later releasing the i3, which was built electric from the ground up at a time when no legacy automaker was building cars electric from the ground up.

Now, while not exactly offering an economy car , it is bringing a new version of the i4 to market in the US that offers a lower entry price. Instead of the previous low price of $55,300, the starting MSRP of the new trim is $51,400 in the USA. Deliveries will begin in the 1st quarter of next year, 2023.The new i4 is the BMW i4 eDrive35.
