BMW-ALPINA wroteYeah, BMW’s new naming strategy really feels all over the place. Dropping the “i” for electric M models just makes things even more confusing.BMWs new model naming is just confusing, especially with the EV M-models that seems to ditch the i-branding completely.
They should do something like this:
M350i = gas
M350ie = gas PHEV
M350d = diesel
M350de = diesel PHEV
M350e = electric
M350h = hydrogen
