AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)06/01 Report--

With more and more news of BMW's new 4-series models, its "giant double kidneys" design has been gradually confirmed, becoming the largest model under BMW's "nostrils". Although the new 4 series will not be officially unveiled tomorrow, an external network has exposed its official brochure.

In fact, a year and a half after the launch of the BMW 3-Series codenamed G20, a new generation of 4-Series codenamed G22 was finally unveiled, and it was thought that the new car still adopted the overall design of the new three-Series. After all, the BMW 4-Series model has not been launched for a long time, only about seven years since it was launched in 2013, but in fact it is one of the oldest models. In order to make its positioning more accurate, BMW separated the 3-Series Coupe version and named it the 4-Series.

According to the current BMW 4-series model, the 4-series model as a whole continues the appearance and interior design of the cash 3-series model, but the 4-series model is positioned as a sedan car model, so it uses the rimless door design, and the body height is also relatively low. Cash 4-series models have 4-door version and two-door version. However, according to the picture of the new car, it is only a two-door version.

Judging from the picture, the two new 4-series meshes are designed to run through the connection, with a stout silver decorative frame on the outer ring and silver lattice decoration on the inside. At the same time, the front bar adds a more visual M motion kit shape hole.

The side and rear of the new car were also exposed this time. Compared with the exaggerated design of the front face, the side and tail are relatively low-key, still using a more smooth and smooth line design, and do not create a strong sense of line.

According to the previously revealed photos of the new 4-series interior, the new car's interior design is similar to the new 3-series design, which is expected to use a 12.3-inch full liquid crystal meter, an M sports steering wheel and BMW's latest iDrive 7.0system.

As for power, some foreign media speculate that the new 4 Series will provide different engines for consumers in different countries to choose from. Among them, it will be equipped with 2.0T four-cylinder engine and 3.0T in-line six-cylinder engine, with maximum power of 258 horsepower and 388 horsepower respectively, and peak torque of 400 Nm and 500 Nm respectively.

Although its large intake grille has been a controversial topic since the new BMW 4-Series concept car was unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show, BMW insisted on not giving up the controversial design. In any case, the current shape of BMW's new 4-series is also a new attempt by BMW, and whether the design is acceptable or not will vary from person to person. After all, highly identifiable design has always been an integral part of luxury brands.
