Its being reported that the i4 will go by the model names eDrive35, eDrive40 and M50.

"Initially, the working names were BMW i435, i440 and i4 M50 (an M Performance Automobile from the M Division). But those didn’t stick around. Out of the three i4 models, only one will come with the xDrive system: the i4 M50. The number at the end of the “eDrive” badge simply denotes a more powerful and expensive model, versus the battery capacity seen in Tesla models, for example."

Final names for BMW i4 and BMW iX models reportedly leaked

The new BMW i4 and BMW iX models are coming and will bring the latest and greatest tech from Munich. Along with some new naming conventions.

I can see, that if you look at the source code for the website above, the 2 numbers refer to the prices:

vehicle-model-code-71AW
BMW i4 eDRIVE40 Basis Drive

vehicle-model-price-71AW
65000.01 (this is German site, so I assume EUR 65.000)

vehicle-model-code-31AW
BMW i4 M50

vehicle-model-price-31AW
70000.01 (this is German site, so I assume EUR 70.000)

But these may just be placeholders.
Just for the comparison, the iX3 it starts at EUR 66.300,00

Thanks for confirming @Inside and from an even more official source (BMW). My expectations on i4 pricing is that it will start near the upper end of the 4-series line. It makes the most sense to me and is often how these new models are slotted in.
