The i4 will be the full EV of the 4er Gran Coupe model.
The core X3 and 3er in their PHEV form will be of course be under iPerformance.
The regular 4er Gran Coupe is now fully designated as G26 which will form a certain kinship with the The 8 Gran Coupe due to its more sports car aesthetics.
Currently I have no idea to whether it will be Coupe-Aloon. Or fastback as the current model? Or even this time we will see the M4 Gran Coupe? I would like to think that the second generation would certainly spread its potential knowing full well that there is interest and seeing what the M8 Gran Coupe could do.

I love hearing all of this, the last time I was this stoked about what BMW had in the pipeline was during the Bangle era. I can't wait to see these cars become reality.
