Actually, I'd be extremely surprised if we ever see i5 M on the back of a BMW. That model designation would mean nothing to no one. I think we'd probably see a M5i.
Seeing how we have the i4 M50 which is essentially the EV version of the M440i, all electric vehicles (even those based on gas models) will feature an "i" first in their nomenclature followed by the series number than its trim designation, similar to X vehicles nomenclature, the M will be last.
