Endowed with an aesthetic appeal and dynamic flair all of its own,
the BMW 4 Series has stood out with its supremely assured and stylish
air ever since its launch. A total of nearly 400,000 sales worldwide
(up to the end of 2016) is testimony to the tremendous allure of the
BMW 4 Series, whose story began in 2013 with the arrival of the
BMW 4 Series Coupe. The following year, it was joined by the
BMW 4 Series Convertible and the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe to create a
complete model family. The cars are manufactured in Munich
(BMW 4 Series Coupe), Regensburg (BMW 4 Series Convertible) and
Dingolfing (BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe).
The new BMW 4 Series models write the next chapter in this success
story with even sharper styling and revised suspension.
Accentuating the sporty character.
Restyled LED headlights take the place of the outgoing cars’ xenon
units. And all models in the range are equipped with LED front
foglamps as standard. The LED rear lights fitted on the BMW 4 Series
for the first time give extra impact to the car’s powerful looks.
Modified air intakes, line-specific applications and the new rear
apron add further striking touches.
Moving inside, the new electroplated detailing, chrome applications
and centre console in high-gloss black reinforce the exclusive,
high-quality feel. Another visual highlight is the double stitching on
the instrument panel, while three new upholstery colours together with
three new interior trim strips provide even greater choice when it
comes to personalising the interior’s design.
The two new exterior paint finishes Snapper Rocks Blue and
Sunset Orange are available exclusively for the new BMW 4 Series
models, and there is also one new model-specific wheel design each for
the Advantage, Sport Line, Luxury Line and M Sport equipment lines. An
abundance of additional equipment options offers ample scope for
tailoring the car to individual tastes.
Revised suspension.
The new BMW 4 Series Coupe and BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe now come with
a stiffer suspension set-up delivering even sportier handling without
any loss of ride comfort. Both the lateral and longitudinal dynamics
have been improved, regardless of the load on board. This applies not
only to the standard suspension, but also to the M Sport suspension
and the Adaptive suspension. All new BMW 4 Series models now boast
even more assured straight-line stability and more communicative
steering. High-performance tyres are available as a factory-fitted
option for all models from the BMW 430d and BMW 430i upwards.
31 model and powertrain variants.
All of the petrol engines and the four-cylinder diesel units fitted
in the new BMW 4 Series range stem from the latest
BMW EfficientDynamics family of engines and are equipped with
BMW TwinPower Turbo technology. There are three petrol engines
(BMW 420i, BMW 430i and BMW 440i) and three diesel options (BMW 420d,
BMW 430d, BMW 435d xDrive) available for all of the new BMW 4 Series models.
The power output of the petrol-engined BMW 4 Series model variants
ranges from 135 kW / 184 hp in the BMW 420i up to 240 kW / 326 hp in
the BMW 440i (fuel consumption combined: 7.9 – 5.5 l/100 km [35.8 –
51.4 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined: 185 – 127 g/km). When it comes
to the diesel line-up, meanwhile, the power spectrum extends from
140 kW / 190 hp in the BMW 420d up to the 230 kW / 313 hp of the
BMW 435d xDrive (fuel consumption combined: 5.9 – 4.0 l/100 km [47.9 –
70.6 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined: 155 – 106 g/km).
The BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe is available in a further diesel variant
– the BMW 418d with an output of 110 kW / 150 hp (fuel consumption
combined: 4.5 – 4.1 l/100 km [62.8 – 68.9 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions
combined: 118 – 107 g/km).
A total of twelve model variants are available with the option of
BMW xDrive, while the BMW 435d xDrive comes with the intelligent
all-wheel-drive system as standard – in Coupe, Convertible and
Gran Coupe guise.
New navigation and instrumentation displays.
The optional Navigation system Professional for the new BMW 4 Series
now features an interface with large tile-style control pads that is
even easier to use. The control pads can be arranged as desired and
display a constantly updated version of the linked menu content,
making operation even more intuitive for users.
The BMW 4 Series range can be optionally fitted with the
Multifunctional Instrument Display, giving the driver the choice of
different visualisation options for all displays depending on the
driving experience mode selected.
Sharper design for the BMW M4, too.
The BMW M4 Coupe and BMW M4 Convertible now come as standard with the
adaptive full-LED headlights. And the newly designed full-LED rear
lights again freshen up appearances and inject technical appeal.
Besides this, a number of styling touches have been added to give the
cabin of the sportiest BMW 4 Series variants an even more
sophisticated air. And the two M4 models likewise feature the updated
version of the Navigation system Professional and other ConnectedDrive features.
