Haha, true! It’s like dating a luxury car—that monthly payment is no joke, but the experience can be thrilling. So, any predictions on how this will evolve in the future?
I’m curious about this too! With the BMW i4 M50’s range, especially in colder weather, does anyone have recommendations for charging stations along popular routes?
Absolutely! I’ve found that using apps like PlugShare can help locate charging options nearby. Planning your route with ample charging stops really eases the anxiety.
Does anyone have tips on how to increase the range? I’ve read that driving modes can make a big difference.

Yes! Using Eco Pro mode can really help. Plus, keeping the tires properly inflated and minimizing heavy acceleration also boosts efficiency.
I think one of the best tips is to familiarize yourself with the cars’ regenerative braking features. It helps to extend your range effectively.
That’s a great point! I keep forgetting to make full use of that. It definitely eases the anxiety knowing you can gain back some energy while driving.
I’ve actually experienced some range anxiety on lengthy trips. Are there particular charging networks you recommend?
I recommend checking out Electrify America and ChargePoint. They have comprehensive maps and many fast-charging stations!
Ha! With all the tech in this car, it’s a wonder it’s not automated to drive us to a charging station when we’re low! Until then, planning is key.
