Additional Information:
The coupe version of the BMW M3, the M4 is also the performance "M" version of the 4-Series. It is powered by the same 425HP 3.0 TT I6 as the M3. CFRP (Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic) is used extensively for this car and, for the first time in an M car, the car also has electric power steering specifically tuned for the M4.
Blue "M" brakes come as standard with gold carbon ceramic's available as an option. The M4 features "Active Sound" which amplifies the car's natural engine sound inside the car and also reduces road noise without producing any artificial sounds. Overall, over 50% of the parts in the M4 are different to those used in the 4-Series.
A convertible version was announced alongside the coupe and almost everything is shared between the cars but the cabrio weighs more due to it's retractible roof and also accelerates slower, but still managing a 4.3 0-60 in DCT form.
BMW announced the Competition Package for both M4's in 2016, which gives both models 444 BHP and a revised suspension. New springs, dampers and anti-roll bars complement the included Adaptive M Suspension. BMW also retuned the electronic differential and the Dynamic Stability Control to match the upgraded hardware. The interior remains largely unchanged, but Competition Package cars get new lightweight sport seats along with the M-striped woven seat belts.
In 2015, BMW also unveiled a "GTS" model of the M4 that went on sale in 2016. It is a track focused version of the M4 with a tuned version of the twin turbo I6 producing 493 BHP while weighing 105KG less than the M4 Coupe, weighing 1510KG. These improvements allow the GTS to do 0-60 in 3.8 seconds, the same as a Nissan GT-R, and has lapped the Nurburgring with a time identical to that of the Porsche Carrera GT.
In the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters 4 teams run the BMW M4, with Marco Wittmann and Maxime Martin winning 5 races in 2014.
