2025 BMW i4 and 4 Series Gran Coupe: Sharper, Smarter, and More Electric Than Ever
BMW refreshes its i4 and 4 Series Gran Coupe for 2025 with bold new looks, smarter tech, and electrified powertrains. Here's what's new and why it matters.
BMW is turning up the voltage for 2025, giving its i4 and 4 Series Gran Coupe a fresh new look, smarter tech, and even more electrified punch. If you thought the Bavarians were resting on their laurels, think again—these Gran Coupes are out to prove that style, substance, and sustainability can all ride in the same lane.
What’s New for 2025?
The 2025 i4 and 4 Series Gran Coupe get a sharper front end, with slimmer headlights and a new take on the iconic kidney grille. The i4’s grille is now fully enclosed up top (because, hey, EVs don’t need as much cooling), while the 4 Series Gran Coupe’s mesh intakes get a matte Quartz Silver finish. Out back, laser-lit taillights add a dash of sci-fi flair.
Inside, the tech game is strong. The latest BMW Curved Display runs Operating System 8.5, with QuickSelect for snappier menu navigation and an optional Augmented View for navigation. The climate controls and seat heating are now touch or voice-activated, and the new steering wheel designs (including a flat-bottomed M wheel) add a sporty vibe.
Powertrains: More Electric, More Efficient
The i4 continues as BMW’s all-electric Gran Coupe, with the M50 xDrive model offering all-wheel drive and serious performance. The 4 Series Gran Coupe’s gas engines now feature 48V mild hybrid tech for better efficiency and a little extra zip. The M440i’s inline-six gets a total of 386 hp and can sprint to 60 mph in as little as 4.3 seconds (with xDrive).
Customization and Comfort
BMW is offering new paint colors (Cape York Green, anyone?), fresh wheel designs, and a range of interior trims—including open-pore wood and quilted Vernasca leather. The seats are sportier, the cabin is quieter, and the tech is more intuitive than ever.
Charging and Connectivity
The i4’s charging experience is smarter, with Plug & Charge Multi Contract support and improved route planning via BMW Maps. The My BMW App lets you check range, schedule charging, and even pre-condition the cabin—all from your phone. 5G connectivity and a personal eSIM mean you’re always plugged in.
Why It Matters
BMW’s latest updates keep the i4 and 4 Series Gran Coupe at the sharp end of the premium midsize segment. Whether you’re after all-electric thrills or a tech-laden, efficient gas model, these Gran Coupes deliver. And with production shifting toward all-electric at BMW’s Munich plant, the future is looking greener (and faster) than ever.
Fun Fact: The new laser-lit taillights are inspired by the BMW M4 CSL, a track-focused special edition. Because who doesn’t want a little motorsport magic on their daily commute?
