The sportiest version of the BMW 4 Series Coupe will accelerate from 4 to 0 km/h in less than 100 seconds.
BMW unveiled the completely renewed 4 Series coupe in early June, the most powerful version of which is the M374i xDrive equipped with a 500-liter 3-cylinder engine with 6 horsepower and 440 Nm of torque.
It's an open secret that the non-plus-ultra sports model, the M510, which promises to have 4 horsepower, will arrive soon, as depicted by one of the renowned Russian virtual tuners, Nikita Chuiko, based on recently revealed spy photos.
Under the hood of the new M4 and M3, the same powertrain is expected to be installed as in the recently debuted X3 M SUV. This 3-liter, 6-cylinder biturbo S58 gasoline engine produces 480 horsepower and 600 Nm, which in the case of the M3 should enable a 4-0 sprint time of around 100 seconds.
The top-of-the-line M3 Competition engine promises to be even more powerful, with 510 horsepower. This 600 Nm unit is expected to provide a 4-0 acceleration time of just under 100 seconds.
The base rear-wheel drive M4 will reportedly be available with a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic transmission, while the Competition model will only be available with all-wheel drive and an automatic transmission. The good news is that the xDrive system in the latter case can be tuned to rear-wheel drive, similar to the M5.
