That's pretty good performance. However, if these specs are reasonably accurate then this is going to be a very heavy car. EVs are typically heavier than their gasoline equivalents, yes, but given these specs it sounds like the i4 is going to weigh ~4200 lbs.
And of course the natural comparisons will be to the M3 and Model 3 Performance, where it will probably be bested in both cases. BMW is in a bit of a tricky spot because they can't upstage their flagship, but they want to make a good showing against the established EV competition.

I suspect it will be priced competitively against (within 10% of) the Model 3.
