Overview
The 2024 BMW 4-Series offers a luxurious, stylish alternative to the 3-Series sedan, prioritizing design over practicality.
What is the price of BMW 4 Series in 2024?
The 2024 BMW 4-Series is priced from $50,895 to $69,545, competitive in the premium coupe segment. The base 430i starts at $50,895, while the high-performance M440i begins at $61,895. Optional features include all-wheel drive ($2,000), convertible model ($7,500), and M Sport package (includes 18-inch wheels, sport suspension, and rear differential).
Engine
The 4-Series boasts two potent engines: a 255-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the 430i and a 382-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six in the M440i. Both pair with an eight-speed automatic transmission and benefit from a 48-volt hybrid system. The inline-six delivers exceptional refinement and acceleration.
Dimensions
The 4-Series interior mirrors the 3-Series’, with premium materials and layout. However, the coupe design limits rear-seat space and trunk capacity. The convertible model sacrifices additional cargo room. In testing, the coupe’s trunk held five carry-on suitcases, one less than the 3-Series sedan.
Performance
The M440i delivers exceptional acceleration and sporty handling, courtesy of its retuned suspension and aggressive steering calibration. However, the ride can feel compliant, and steering lacks feedback. Strong brakes provide impressive stopping power, with a 70-to-zero-mph distance of 149 feet.
Fuel Economy
EPA estimates range from 22-34 mpg, depending on the trim. The 430i coupe earns 26 mpg city and 34 mpg highway, while the M440i is rated at 22 mpg city and 31 highway. Real-world testing showed the 430i xDrive achieving 34 mpg on the highway.
The 2024 BMW 4-Series offers a stylish, luxurious driving experience, despite prioritizing design over practicality. While its handling may not match previous generations, the 4-Series remains competitive in the premium coupe segment, with powerful engines and a posh cabin.
