Hello everyone,

Ordered an I4 eDrive40 with M Sport package in Portimao Blue metalic, black interior with most of the tech options from the list. It will be my first EV car and also the first one ordered with no chance of a drive test as the car was not yet lauched in Romania. The main reason for choosing eDrive40 was the extended range as the charging infrastructure in my country is not the best. Also, 340HP will be more than enough for me, was also happy with the power of my previous car, a 530i. Order placed on November 17th but clueless about the delivery date. The dealer promised July 2022. Till then, I enjoy the digital brochure...😃😃

Salut. Congratulations for the choice of the first EV, same here. Ordered in Cluj, October, no idea around a delivery date. Just a thought, wouldn't the blue M brake calipers complete the blue accents of the car? If I were you, I'd get them for esthetics alone

Welcome to both of you!!
Enjoy the forum where technicality and fun (sometimes even silliness) go together...

@TibiR: Thanks for your Digital Brochure. I added it to the list.

Hi Tibi,
Any news about your car, do you have a production date?

Hi Luc,

No news, in fact I've done some changes on the original configuration and the new estimation for delivery is around April 2023. I kept Portimao Blue and added M brakes package and M seats.
The good thing is that three weeks ago I had the chance to test drive the M50 version. Amazing experience😄. I was tempted to change again the configuration but the price made me stay at eDrive40. So long long wait still...

How did you got the new estimation, from the dealership? My dealer doesn't know anything about the delivery but I have been told by BMW Romania that I might get the car by end of 2022 (05.11.2021 order)

I think the dealer considered a one-year window starting from the time the configuration was sent to the factory.

So what they are saying is that with every change to the configuration, the delivery gets delayed to one year?
