BMW has just revealed the technical specifications and prototype photos of the next-gen 4 Series. This model has been designed from the ground up and is so much more than being just a two-door 3 Series. It does get the same lift-related passive dampers as the 3 Series but it has a new double-joint front suspension setup that has been created to allow for both sharper handling and improved ride comfort.
BMW also gave the new 4 Series a new structural bracing, an increase in negative front camber, an increase in rear-wheel track, a lower front end height, a 21 mm lower center of gravity, and even custom made tower-to-front end struts. These features are enough to create it’s own character.
In this release, BMW mentions the upcoming BMW M440i Drive which gets the same 3.0 liter turbocharged I6 (B58) engine as the M340i, making the same 374 hp (275 kW). It will also have a new 48-volt mild-hybrid setup with an electric starter-generator that adds 11 hp that helps to increase efficiency and engine responsiveness,
