The M TwinPower Turbo engine delivers the best of both worlds in each of the three models:
a ,rpm high-revving concept and highly efficient power with peak torque of Nm and
output of kW (hp) at your command. With the optional -gear M dual-clutch transmission,
it takes . seconds to reach km/h (.s in the BMW M Convertible); km/h arrives
. seconds later (BMW M Convertible: .s). The overall concept, now in its fifth-generation,
has reached a new peak of technical perfection. And you will feel the results in every kilometre.
Everything is designed for maximum control in the driver-orientated cockpit: all elements, such
as the M seats with their bucket-style character and the M leather steering wheel, ensure perfect
ergonomics and command of the vehicle even in the most dynamic situations. The optional
M Carbon Ceramic Brakes reduce weight even more and, with their larger discs and increased
number of pistons, further optimise performance, the motor sport feel and service life.
The M-specific BMW Head-Up Display, available on request, projects the most important
data into your field of vision so you always keep your eyes on the road.
Because what you can see, you can also master.
FRESH AIR,
TO TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY.
The apex of the curve is clearly in sight, the machine under perfect
control. Like the new BMW M Coup and the new BMW M Saloon,
the new BMW M Convertible has been designed using motor sport
technology for pure dynamics at the performance limits. The aerodynamic
M design, meanwhile, does more than showcase your commanding
position. It also helps you hold your lead in the race.
YOU DECIDE
WHO COMES FIRST.
INNOVATION
AND TECHNOLOGY.
M TWIN POWER TURBO ENGINE: Power with maximum efciency.
INTELLIGENT LIGHTWEIGHT CONSTRUCTION AND ATHLETIC DESIGN:
The art of engineering at its most powerful.
CHASSIS: Innovative systems for more driving pleasure.
BMW CONNECTED DRIVE: Services & Apps and driver assistance.
Experience a new dimension of driving enjoyment and efciency with the innovative BMW engines featuring M TwinPower
Turbo technology. This innovation package a milestone of the BMW EfcientDynamics strategy combines the latest fuel
injection technology and fully variable valve control with innovative turbocharging technology to increase dynamism and
efciency. The result: pure driving pleasure.
A passion for innovation and technology combined with many years of motor sport experience ow into every engine
developed by BMW M GmbH. It follows that the interplay of all components, including M TwinPower Turbo technology
with Valvetronic, two weight-optimised mono-scroll turbochargers, the forged crankshaft and the high-performance
cooling system delivers outstanding responsiveness and maximum performance output in the M TwinPower Turbo engines.
At the same time, emissions and fuel consumption are reduced.
Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are dependent on wheel and tyre size.
For more information, see pages 48/49.
The BMW M Coup, BMW M Saloon and BMW M Convertible deliver maximum driving pleasure coupled with an
outstanding performance/fuel consumption ratio thanks to EfcientDynamics measures such as intelligent lightweight
construction in combination with athletic design.
BMW M engineers are always exploring the development of intelligent vehicle concepts. And the results, from drivetrain
innovations through to body components, are integrated specically into M vehicles for exceptional driving performance
with impressive efciency.
M TwinPower Turbo technology featuring a high-rev concept combines performance with efciency. Innovative turbo
technology, High Precision Injection, fully variable Valvetronic valve control, Double-VANOS and the high-rev principle
guarantee immediate responsiveness, linear power development over a wide range of engine speeds and a unique sound.
Intelligent lightweight construction is a peak priority in M vehicles. This is because low weight is the optimum platform
for the best driving dynamics and exemplary efciency. Ultra-light materials such as magnesium, aluminium and carbon
bre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) are used in many components. This all ensures greater agility and dynamism, including improved
acceleration and braking.
Comprehensive and coordinated aerodynamics measures optimise driving dynamics, stability, controllability and cooling
of M vehicles, particularly at high speeds. Reduced air resistance also improves performance and lowers fuel consumption.
With Brake Energy Regeneration, the alternator generates electricity primarily when the driver brakes or takes their foot
off the accelerator. Previously unused kinetic energy is transformed into electrical energy and fed into the battery.
The Auto Start-Stop function switches the engine off when the vehicle comes to a temporary standstill (e.g. at trafc lights
or in a trafc jam) to reduce overall fuel consumption. When the driver presses on the clutch (six-speed manual) or takes their
foot off the brake (optional -gear dual-clutch transmission with Drivelogic), the engine automatically starts up again in a fraction
of a second.
Carbon roof. As part of the BMW intelligent lightweight construction concept, the roof of the BMW M4 Coup and
BMW M3 Saloon is made of carbon bre-reinforced plastic (CFRP). This helps to reduce mass while also lowering the
centre of gravity. And this, in turn, increases agility and dynamics when cornering, accelerating and braking. The carbon
bre structure is visible.
The chassis.
The Active M Differential optimises traction and driving stability when changing lanes or accelerating out of curves, when
cornering at high speed or on roads with uneven surfaces. Traction is improved via an electronically controlled device that
reduces the difference in revolution speed between the rear wheels.
M Dynamic mode enables the maximum exploitation of lateral and longitudinal dynamic potential for a particularly authentic
driving experience. It works by raising the intervention threshold of the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system, although the
driver is still supported in critical situations.
Conventional rules do not apply to the new BMW M4 Coup, new BMW M3 Saloon and new BMW M4 Convertible. As
independent productions of BMW M GmbH, they are faithful to the M philosophy and perfectly combine high performance
with optimum, everyday practicality. To full these high aspirations, the intricately constructed M high-performance chassis
has been entirely redeveloped.
The intelligent networking of chassis components and control systems ensures maximum driving dynamics and agility as well as
a high degree of precision and control. Experience fascinatingly authentic driving feel.
With the optional Adaptive M suspension, electronic control of the shock absorbers ensures optimised road contact
and traction in any situation. The suspension settings can be adjusted from comfortable through to sporty-dynamic via the
Comfort, Sport and Sport+ modes.
M Servotronic adjusts the power steering to suit the current speed and, even at high speeds, ensures direct and precise
steering responses. It also provides excellent comfort by minimizing the effort required for steering, as well as maximising
agility when parking, manoeuvring and navigating narrow or twisting roads.
The optional 7-gear M dual-clutch transmission with Drivelogic is an innovative dual-clutch system specially
designed for the high-revving BMW M engine. It enables extremely fast gearchanges without any loss of tractive force.
Two sub-transmissions, each with its own clutch, continuously relay engine power to the rear wheels.
With the optional M Carbon Ceramic Brake System, braking power is implemented more directly. It doesnt corrode,
tolerates more heat, is highly resistant to abrasion and contributes to lower vehicle weight, which has a positive impact on
agility, dynamics and acceleration. Brake calipers in Gold Metallic with the M logo make this special technical feature visible
from the outside of the car.
