From the moment I sunk into its bucket seats and gently tapped the accelerator, I instantly knew that the BMW i4 M50 Gran Coupe was going to be a beast of an EV. Most of the electric vehicles I’ve driven this year have been crossovers and SUVs, so to drive an all-electric sedan is a refreshing change. I didn’t know what I was getting myself into beforehand, but after driving the 2025 BMW i4 M50 Gran Coupe for a week, I can say that it’s the most fun I’ve had all year riding an EV.
Billed as a luxury all-electric sports car, it has a starting MSRP of $70,700 — so it’s definitely on the pricier side right from the get-go. With all of the options and packages included, the BMW i4 M50 Gran Coupe I drove for a week comes to about $76,575. I know it’s out of my comfort zone in terms of what I’d be willing to shell out for a new car, but I can’t deny how much of a status symbol it is. In fact, it beats out the Kia EV9 for the amount of compliments it got from random people.
