I'm reading that the global allocation of I4 has been sold out already...

That can't be right surely?

Thoughts?

It must depend on the country. I read it several times for the US, but in Europe (at least on this forum) the deliveries do not exceed October 2022
In any case, I think it is more a problem of supply (component crisis) than of demand

In norway the m50 is completely sold out for 2022. No wonder since the price difference with every option without the exterior carbon was around 450 euros.
Huge price spike in november bringing the price more close to what it should be.

Source BMW i4 Electric Car Already Sold Out Based On 2021 Allocation

The preorder page for the i4 notes that the first deliveries for both trims are sold out. BMW expects to begin deliveries in June 2022.
... If they hadn't yet done so, they'll likely have to wait until next summer for a second wave of deliveries to materialize. Fortunately, June 2022 marks the beginning of next summer, so perhaps people won't have to wait too long.

But the article seems to concern the US.

I'm not surprised, given the Norwegians' enthusiasm for the i4!
Question: is there a maximum number of cars for each country, or is it a European scale?

Not sure about maximum, but there is an allocated for each country. Heard somwhere that if Norway's popularity continue to grow, and others countries not so much, we can get more allocation production slots.

(others Belgians should hurry up)

seems legitimate!

You know some rumor, from some guy on a forum that asked his dealer. I don't count on it.
But again, looking at some countries that order today and gets delivery in march 2022, and our new orders get 2023. But then again, the cheapest M performance car we can get.

I would suspect that Norway already had higher allocations because it is seen as kind of the EV country where sales prove that it is a viable product.

I ordered mine this week here in Belgium and I was told “end of 22”

Did I miss anything here? The us reservations page has been sold out for months. Source: me checking the site daily to see when the US configurator will go live. Haha

It feels as if one reporter decided to check the site and noticed that it said sold out then reported it and then everyone else picked up what they wrote.

If you missed the window for the first round of deliveries scheduled for June 2022, not to worry, as BMW has scheduled the next round for "Summer 2022."
