The engine

Dual Electric Motors

Dual-Motor Electric

BMW's dual-motor i models deliver smooth, silent, rear-biased thrust with the brand's hallmark composure — fast yet refined, especially in M-tuned i4, i5 and i7 form.

Part of BMW's fifth-generation eDrive technology, the motors use no rare-earth magnets in their design, a deliberate move to cut supply-chain and environmental dependence.
