Introducing: The New BMW M4 Convertible
Hot on the heels of the latest BMW M3 Saloon and M4 Coupé, both of which were revealed at Detroit at the start of the year, details of the M4 Convertible are now released, the 5th generation high-performance open-top car of its kind from the company’s M division. Powered by the same 431hp in-line six-cylinder engine as the M3 Saloon and M4 Coupé, the Convertible offers the option of a six-speed manual or seven-speed M Double Clutch transmission. The M4 Convertible exhibits all the hallmarks of a car created by BMW’s high-performance specialists – lightweight engineering, carefully honed aerodynamics, advanced race-derived chassis tuning and electronic driver assistance technologies and a sporty elegant profile, open or closed.
Huge reserves of torque peaking at 550Nm are available from just 1,850rpm – exactly the point at which maximum power of 431hp is attained. This is then maintained until 7,300rpm. Maximum engine revolutions are 7,600rpm. All of this means the M4 Convertible delivers a seemingly never-ending surge from little more than engine tick over to the electronically restricted top speed of 155mph. The zero to 62mph sprint is achieved in 4.6 seconds with the six-speed manual gearbox, or 4.4 seconds with the seven-speed M Double Clutch Transmission.
In manual form the new model is capable of 31mpg with CO2 emissions of 213g/km, while with the quick-shifting seven-speed M Double Clutch Transmission these improve to 32.5mpg and 203g/km CO2. Like all BMWs, the M4 Convertible is equipped with a suite of EfficientDynamics fuel saving technologies, including Auto Start-Stop, Optimum Shift Indicator (in manual mode only with the M DCT transmission), Brake Energy Regeneration, on-demand operation of ancillary units, a map-controlled oil pump and a final drive with optimized warm-up behavior.
Stand-out M design touches include a power dome in the bonnet, a sculpted front apron with three air intakes and a black double-slat kidney grille. Standard 19-inch M double-spoke light alloy wheels, flared front and rear wheel arches, M side gills and Air Breathers behind the front wheels and polished slanting quad exhaust tailpipes, make the BMW M4 Convertible a striking M car.
The interior features a number of M division highlights, led by electrically-adjustable, heated and contoured leather M seats with recessed head restraints and integrated seatbelt. The front head restraints incorporate an illuminated BMW M logo. Interior highlights also include an M steering wheel, chrome trim and three-colour M stitching. The individual rear seats offer a combination of comfort and lateral support befitting the car-for-all-conditions character of the M4 Convertible.
