Sure. By 2035-ish I would expect some sort of electric two door BMW. And I would not be surprised if it were the only coupe in the lineup by that time. I say that because I expect the 8er Coupe and Z4 to disappear after the current generation, while I could see the 2er and 4er coupes merge into a single model going by some new name.

an i4 with the body of the G82 ?

I think we can safely rule that out. The G82 will be ancient history by 2035. And even the i4 name might not be around then (though it just as easily could be).

Does anyone know if in fact the 2022 F90's which are supposedly starting to be built next month have any significant update from the 21's like Laser lights or anything to speak of? (Specifically for the US market). I know they've been available on Canadian cars as well as in the EU

G30/31 Alpinas are already on the used-market in Europe.

MY 2022 SOP is 1st of July, for all model ranges. Last year BMW informed the MY 21 changes on 27.5., so I would expect all possible MY 22 changes to be communicated late May or early June.

Any news / rumours on an electric 3 series for the UK?

bgexpress · 05-13-2021, 07:53 AM

Do we know where the G87 will be produced? Also, is the S58 confirmed?

Mexico is the only plant scheduled to produce the G42. So, unless BMW plans to build an entirely separate factory elsewhere or adapt another factory to produce a very limited run variant of a volume car they are already producing in a factory built to produce said volume car, Mexico. Not thrilled about that, but it is what it is. S58 is all but certain. After the N55 in the OG M2, I doubt they'll deny the G87 the S58. Probably detuned in some way.

The fully electric i3(L) will launch in China in the near future alongside the i4, but there is no indication that it will show up elsewhere.

Yes, the G28, in electric form or otherwise, is unlikely to be sold outside of China.

Instead, we should expect an electric 3 Series when the next generation arrives in late 2025. It is rumored to move to the Neue Klasse architecture at that time, which is exclusively for BEV and PHEV vehicles.

Does this indicate the planned LCI for the X3/X4 isn't happening with the rumored exterior changes and upgrade of the tech package from SP15 to SP18?

The LCI for X3/X4 will happen this summer, but apparently it will be announced later separately - as classically LCI is a bigger change than just a "normal" MY revision and BMW will for sure advertise it as "the new X3 and X4" while being only LCI. SOP for the LCI is indicated 08/2021 in the OP, so maybe it will not happen yet in July, but I'm not sure about that - often LCIs during summer happen in July.

@ynguldyn could you please confirm if EOP for i3 is still 06/22? We're looking to custom build one in US and my CA tells me that 2021 is the EOP and that currently no dealers in the whole country have any new i3 production allocations, so basically we have to get whatever inventory is available!!! I find it extremely hard to believe that no new i3 is gonna come to the US if EOP is one year away…

US EOP is tricky in that any model could disappear from the US market even if it continues production for other countries. So I'd trust the CA in this case.

BarlasaM GOLFFRR - if you have the bandwidth, can you please confirm that i3 is EOP for US? Thank you!

sward · 06-02-2021, 11:51 AM

During the iX/i4 live feed yesterday they announced in the end that the iX M60 is coming in 2022

mbanck · 06-02-2021, 12:43 PM

Is the SOP for the i4 eDrive35 known already?

FWIW, the german site Next Move also claimed the i3 will stop production this year some weeks ago.
