Our first look at the updated i4 suggests BMW\u2019s electric exec could soon be revealed<\/h2>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The BMW i4 is one of our favourite electric cars and soon it\u2019ll get even better thanks to a mid-life refresh, and it\u2019s been spotted testing on the public road for the very first time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Our reigning Premium Electric Car of the Year, the i4, may only have launched in 2021 but has seen new rivals emerge since with the Hyundai Ioniq 6, BYD Seal and of course, the newly-updated Tesla Model 3.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Judging by the spy shots, we shouldn\u2019t expect a drastic change to the i4\u2019s exterior for this facelift (or \u2018LCI\u2019 model as BMW traditionally calls them). The large grilles remain with the radar system embedded to one side, the bumper design looks similar to the current M Sport version of the i4, but the headlight cluster does feature a new LED signature.\u00a0<\/p>\n
