We're not completely convinced that an i4 M60 offers quite enough over its lesser i4 eDrive40 stablemate to justify its huge price premium. But if you can come to terms with that and an AWD format is essential, this is pretty much a state-of-the-art definition of current mid-sized EV sports saloon and fastback design.
If you struggle with the price, just take a look at how much more it would cost to get basically the same thing packaged up as BMW's i5 M60. Or check out how much the Three-Pointed Star wants to charge for a Mercedes-AMG EQE 53 4MATIC+ that goes hardly any faster. So it's all relative - and will be all about relatives as EV M cars start to join BMW's model line-up in greater numbers.
