It gets a wider body with fender flares and a face transplant from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/08\/13\/bmw-m4-kith-black-white-photoshoot\/\">M4 Coupe<\/a>.\u00a0Interestingly, the rear doors have been removed.<\/p>\n<p>BMW M goes on to mention its electric sports car has been equipped with all-wheel drive. The use of xDrive typically implies there are two electric motors \u2013 one at the front and the other at the rear, driving the axles independently. However, the modified M EV\u00a0has a four-motor setup with each motor driving a wheel.<\/p>\n<p>Although no power figures have been disclosed, adding two extra electric motors has certainly increased output compared to the i4 M50 by a significant amount. Therefore, we\u2019re assuming a healthy bump over the 544 horsepower and 795 Newton-meters (586 pound-feet) of torque available in the i4 M50. Rather than cramming in two more e-motors and calling it a day, BMW M says it has engineered a \u201ccompletely new drive concept.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Without going into specifics, the high-performance division vaguely mentions an \u201cintegrated driving dynamics control system\u201d and wider front and rear tracks compared to the i4 M50. The prototype\u2019s quad electric motors are linked to a \u201ccentral, highly integrated control unit\u201d that monitors the driving conditions and driver\u2019s inputs to calculate the optimal power via a multi-plate clutch and differentials delivery within milliseconds.<\/p>\n<p>BMW is testing the i4 Coupe on the road and mentions it has modified the interior to accommodate a wide variety of measuring devices to scan everything that is happening while the car is in motion. This rolling test laboratory will eventually lead to the launch of BMW M\u2019s first full-fat M electric car.<\/p>\n<p>Source: BMW<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BMW M has commenced testing of high-performance electric vehicles and the first order of business was to modify the BMW i4 M50.
