The BMW 4-Series is available in two different body styles: coupe and convertible in both rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive. There are two engines available in the 4-Series: 430i models are powered by a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine that makes 255 horsepower mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission.
The performance-oriented M4 gets a 3.0L twin-turbocharged six-cylinder with a 6-speed manual transmission that produces an impressive 473 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque. The M4 Competition uses the same engine mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission that's tuned to produce 503 horsepower. M4 models are rear-wheel-drive only.
The M440 is available in RWD and AWD and it's powered by a 3L turbocharged 6-cylinder engine that produces 382 horsepower.
Trim levels are all similarly equipped across the range, notable features on the 4-Series include 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, heated side mirrors with a power folding function, 12-way power adjustable front seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, Bluetooth connectivity, a automatic climate control with separate rear controls, BMW's iDrive system with an 8.8-inch display screen, cruise control and rain-sensing wipers.
The M4 comes with a few more standard items, such as adaptive suspension, touch-screen navigation, and a 16-speaker surround audio system.
Since the various trims feature similar equipment levels, there are several options and option packages available on the 4-Series.
Available safety equipment includes front and rear parking sensors, a lane departure warning system, blind spot warning, forward collision mitigation, rear collision warning, a pedestrian detection system, a driver attention alert and a traffic sign information system.

M4's Unmatched Performance
For 2022 the BMW 4-series remains largely unchanged although a 430 Gran Coupe has been added to the lineup. The M4 adds all-wheel drive to the Competition model and a M440 Gran Coupe has also been introduced.
The BMW 4-Series is a stylish car that offers most of the performance and styling of a sports car without compromising much in terms of comfort or practicality. It features sleek, low styling and is available in a few different body styles, including as a convertible. Performance is brisk, but ride and comfort have been carefully balanced to provide a driving experience that is both entertaining and somewhat luxurious.
The BMW 4-Series competes with sedans and coupes such as the Audi A5, the Mercedes Benz C-Class and the Lexus IS. The top-of-the-line M4 offers blistering performance and razor-sharp handling but in a practical coupe package.
