~340-350 EPA miles sounds great, although is this confirmed for the production vehicle, as in this is what the owners will get?, Or is this a target range? Like the iNext, which BMW lowered from 400+ to 360 WLTP miles for range, and could possibly still be lowered further before debuting? And when will this i4 actually be present on dealer lots? 2020? 2021? 2022? By then, Tesla could update its Model 3 even further and get closer or beat BMW's range, its definitely possibly seeing as the Model S currently has a top range of 370 miles.
This is a tough class to compete in, Tesla is pretty much what BMW was in the compact sports sedan class years ago... the "benchmark" to which other automakers strive to.
