Number of doors, or generally the design is irrelevant. All that matters, is the drive system beneath and the first car to carry that, will look completely different. Also, it is probably 4-6 years away.
Also important to point out its not an i4 M50. It's the i4/4er GC chassis with M bits and quad motor.

The quad motor setup is arguably the key takeaway here vs suspension bits.

Quad motors are not easy to develop fwiw. I did time in the EV startup space and we failed to bring quad motors to market
