BMW i4 Vs Lexus ES 350h FAQs

The BMW i4 is priced between ₹72.50 lakh and ₹77.50 lakh (ex-showroom), depending on the variant.

1. eDrive35 M Sport — around 70.2 kWh battery, claimed range ~ 483 km. 2. eDrive40 M Sport — larger ~ 83.9 kWh battery, claimed range ~ 590 km.

Given the data: 3.18 km/kWh, electricity price ₹9/unit → Cost per km = ₹9 ÷ 3.18 ≈ ₹2.83 per km. That’s far cheaper than most petrol SUVs in this price range.

The BMW i4 has a ground clearance of 125 mm. On smooth highways and expressways, it glides beautifully. But on Indian speed breakers and monsoon potholes, you will need to slow down, else you risk making your luxury sedan perform an unplanned belly rub. Parking in narrow streets of Old Delhi or Mumbai gullies is also not fun, since the i4 is 4.78 meters long.

DC fast charging: 10–80% in about 31 minutes (with a 200 kW charger). AC home charging: Around 8–9 hours with a wallbox. If you have a dedicated parking slot with charging installed, daily charging is hassle-free. For road trips, check your route for public fast chargers, else your i4 might turn into a ₹75 lakh lounge chair.

BMW i4 maintenance is lower than petrol/diesel cars since there’s no engine oil, spark plugs, or filters. Expect around ₹30,000–₹40,000 per year for servicing, software updates, and wear-and-tear parts. Insurance will be higher, given the price bracket. Battery warranty typically covers 8 years or 1.6 lakh km.

The BMW i4 is for financially sound urban buyers who value luxury, sustainability, and German engineering. It suits executives, entrepreneurs, and families with multiple cars who want an EV for city runs and occasional highway trips.

Main rivals of the BMW i4 in India include: Kia EV6 (sporty, but less brand prestige) Hyundai Ioniq 5 (tech-rich, more affordable) Volvo XC40 Recharge (luxury SUV EV) Mercedes EQB (three-row luxury EV) For those with deeper pockets, the Porsche Taycan sits one rung higher.

The luxury sedan is available in two distinct variants: Exquisite and Luxury.

It features a 2.5-litre (2487 cc) four-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine.

It is a self-charging strong hybrid electric vehicle (SHEV) that seamlessly switches between electric and petrol power.

The sedan delivers an impressive certified fuel efficiency of 22.5 kmpl.

It features a front-wheel-drive (FWD) system coupled with an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission (e-CVT).
