All-New BMW 4 Series Coupe Revealed. That Grille Though…

After weeks of teasing, BMW has finally revealed the all-new 4 Series Coupe and in all its glory.

There will be five model variants, with the M440i xDrive Coupe sitting at the top of the range, powered by a 374 hp six-cylinder in-line petrol engine and a 48V starter-generator mild hybrid powertrain.

There will also be two four-cylinder petrol engines, a four-cylinder diesel unit, and two six-cylinder in-line diesel engines which will join the line-up in March 2021. All model variants come with an eight-speed Steptronic automatic transmission.
