We’re only a few hours away from the reveal of the G22 BMW 4 Series, but it looks like we won’t need to wait that “long,” as a leaked brochure has now made its way onto Instagram, courtesy of @bmworldm.
The photos give us a good look at the new 4er in its range-topping M440i xDrive variant, which will pack a turbocharged straight-six petrol engine with 374 PS (369 hp) and 500 Nm of torque. As informed by BMW previously, the mill will come with mild hybrid tech and is mated to an eight-speed Steptronic Sport automatic transmission and BMW’s xDrive all-wheel drive system with an electronically-controlled M Sport differential.
Styling-wise, the car stays rather true to the Concept 4 that made its debut last year, with the main point of controversy being the large kidney grille at the front. On the M440i xDrive, this is furnished with a variation of the mesh insert seen on the M340i xDrive, flanked by sleek headlamps sporting hexagonal-shaped “corona” LED daytime running lights.
Other highlights include large air intakes in the corners of the bumper, while the side mirror caps come with a Cerium Grey finish. As for the rear, we find wraparound taillights with distinctive graphics within the clusters, and there’s a subtle boot lip spoiler.
The brochure also shows the list of colour options available, including Alpine White, Black Sapphire, Mineral White, Bluestone, Artic Race Blue, Portimao Blue, Sunset Orange, Sonremo Green and Black, along with a few BMW Individual hues: Brilliant White Metallic, Dravite Grey, Frozen Deep Grey, Frozen Portimao Blue and Tanzanite Blue.
We’ll only know more when BMW officially debuts the 4 Series, but for now, what do you think of the coupe’s new look?

Nice grill car
Nice for those who thought Bane is pretty looking, I guess..
Damn that grill is ugly
I love it. I dont get the hate. Big Grill jokes or not, this thing is gonna look mean on the roads. Most F32 owners all just hating cause they’re scared their cars will be irrelevant.
Sincerely, F32 Owner
Saw a g20 330i that day damn nice and macho unlike in photo. Guess BMW really know how to design car with design that can last generation unlike Benz which look dated in the same generation after facelift. G20 nicer then F series so much this G series coupe must be damn nice real life.
Good and powerful car
kill it
Another level, personally I like it. But the side view looks like ALFA ROMEO a little.
Beautiful design
Lovely!
What a fugly design beamer…exposing those giant big nostrils in this time of covid-19.
Big grille, but this looks so awesome
That retro modern roof line is what made the current c class coupe looks so distinctive, BMW is just playing catch up
Look at the light reflection, more than half of the grille being blocked by a hard plastic. No practical point making it that big.
Back in the day car used to be designed and revolved around its functions. Nowadays car design is not unrelated to function at all, full of fake vents, unnecessary creases, etc. It just look intimidating.
Look how they butchered the grill
The design is acceptable until you saw the grill
Keep on drive your myvi. Best design much.
