The BMW 4 Series Coupe is a car that stands out. It’s not just a 3 Series with a sleek roofline and two fewer doors; it’s a stylish coupe that could even be compared to a Porsche Cayman (with added practicality).

The 4 Series looks quite attractive from the rear, and in person. You can make your own judgment on the design, but BMW has definitely taken a bold approach.

Fortunately, the interior isn’t too quirky. It resembles a BMW 3 Series with high-quality materials and comfortable fabrics. All models come with leather seats and the latest infotainment system, including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and BMW’s Intelligent Personal Assistant, though it can be a bit clunky in practice.

In terms of practicality, the 4 Series Coupe isn’t as spacious as the 3 Series, but a more versatile Gran Coupe variant is on the horizon. It’s a strict four-seater, and the rear seats are a bit tricky to access. They’re suitable for occasional use by children, and the trunk should be adequate for your weekly groceries.

The real strength of the 4 Series is its driving experience. Even the entry-level 420i is a lot of fun, with rear-wheel drive and responsive steering. It’s also a comfortable car for daily driving, although you’ll feel bumps more with larger wheels.

While the 420i is expected to be the popular choice, there’s a diesel option (420d) for long-distance drivers, and the M440i caters to enthusiasts. Overall, the 4 Series has a lot to offer, regardless of its polarizing appearance.

The 4 Series Coupe and Convertible prioritize style over practicality compared to the 3 Series. They offer less rear seat room and cargo space but feature a distinct grille design. The 4 Series is available in the 430i and M440i trims, with both providing ample power. However, they might not handle as sharply as previous BMW models.

The 2024 4 Series now comes with a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster and a 14.9-inch infotainment display, running the latest iDrive 8 software. The M440i’s inline-six engine is a top choice for enthusiasts, but it comes with a significant price increase. The M440i includes various equipment upgrades. A convertible model is available but adds to the cost.

In terms of engines, the 4 Series offers a 430i with a 255-hp four-cylinder and an M440i with a 382-hp turbocharged inline-six. The 4 Series provides a sporty driving experience with a tuned suspension, aggressive steering, and a lower center of gravity than the 3 Series.

Fuel economy ranges from 22 to 34 mpg, depending on the model. Interior quality is on par with the 3 Series, but the 4 Series feels slightly less spacious due to its lower roofline. Trunk space is also smaller, especially in the convertible model.

The 4 Series comes with a 12.3-inch gauge display and a 14.9-inch infotainment display running BMW’s iDrive 8 software. It offers Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, in-dash navigation, and optional Wi-Fi and wireless smartphone charging.

These are the key points about the BMW 4 Series Coupe and Convertible.
