I would buy it sooner than 2029. There might be a limited 6MT run also towards the end, but too early to tell. Will report when I know more.

I am very excited about the G65 X5 and the NA5 iX3. One of these will replace my current i4 in 2026 / 2027. Can't wait to see more details and official information about them.

There's like 2 or 3 "summer" tire options, you cannot choose, it'll just come in with the michelin, the pirelli, or the yokohamas, whichever is available at the time that bmw decides to put on the car

For the 825M/826M (19"/20") that almost everyone gets (standard on the comp, optional on base) it's a toss-up between Michelin PS4S* and Pirelli PZero*. You get what you get, we call it the tire lottery.

I'm pretty sure all 824M (18"/19", standard on base, not available on comp) come with Continental ExtremeContact Force. I know all 1000M (20"/21") accessory wheels come with Yokahama Advan Sport.

OMG! Just saw on the main page that G42 40i Euro spec would increase horsepower! How about the China variant. Basically, China variant shares the same spec with Euro one.

Usually (but not always) China gets the same cars.

Though I would consider the newer design as a whole to be a more important improvement than just the extra 5kW power.

Sorry only 5 kW boost? I mean the US 40i model has over 380 hp. And I heard that EU 40i model is also around 340 hp as CN model does. If EU model is going to be updated to the power that US model has, how could it only be an extra 5 kW?

BTW, newer design you mean a true LCI appearance? Considering the recent update is basically nothing interesting.

Anybody has a good informed guess on the electric motor and battery improvements that may come to the i5 and i4 in 2025?

I guess not, since I can't even find speculation online, but I sincerely hope that it means a switch to a 800v architecture and faster charge times. I may be ready to order before the announcement but I feel like waiting to find out, since a few months wait feel worth it if we get a much better EV for the long term.

Don't count on 800V for the current EVs. That's most likely going happen for NK models. Most likely they may increase the energy capacity of the battery packs, ie, i3 went from 22kw to 33 kw to 42kw (gross). I would hope that BMW increases the existing battery energy by a small amount as they improve the battery chemistry but not switch from 400v to 800v in the current models.

ynguldyn already posted some info on the possible i4 EM update, the M50 is going to be M60 with 590hp.

ynguldyn Is it safe to say we won’t see a facelifted M3 CS sedan (or any other special edition M3 in the US that matches the CS spec)?

There are no special M3s I can see in the pipeline atm. The EOP is 2.5 years away so I'd say no more than a minimal chance of anything showing up as the final chord.

M2 xDrive would be a great opportunity for BMW to engineer the manual transmission to fit the M xDrive system, as it could then be used on the USDM G84 M3s. Doubtful BMW will do this though.

NC0

You have posted under February 2023 update "NC0 is the chassis code of the next i5 (starting production in 2030)."

But, I do not see it in the list at the top after G60/G61.

Was this accidentally left out of the list at the top, or is it rumored that BMW has no plans to make the NC0 i5?
