The locally available iteration of the G82 M4 features the sonorous S58 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged straight six, capable of outputting 375 kW and 650 N.m. BMW has increased the maximum output by 15 kW, resulting in a total output of 390 kW generated at 6 250 r/min. BMW achieved this power increase by modifying the engine’s control system. Torque and the power band have seemingly been undisturbed.

Notable revisions to the M4’s exterior design include the new headlights and taillights. The new vertical LED headlights are a standard feature and offer low and high beams produced by the same LED module. Furthermore, adaptive LED headlights with anti-glare matrix high beams are also available. LED taillights rely on the same laser technology and design that debuted on the limited edition M4 CSL. Another notable addition to the exterior is the addition of new M forged light-alloy wheels, available in 19-inch and 20-inch configurations. BMW also offers the option to adorn the bonnet and rear lid with optional M design graphics akin to the graphics that laden the M4 CSL’s physique.

The M-specific cockpit has been revised and now features a handful of new components such as the new steering wheel, but also includes the use of “high-class” materials and ambience lighting. The M leather steering wheel has adopted a new design, which is characterised by its flat bottom and revised spokes. Most notably, the cockpit features a BMW Curved Display, which consists of a 12.3-inch display behind the steering wheel and a 14.9-inch control monitor. The Curved Display relies on the BMW Operating System 8.5.

Topical tips on buying used – Chapter 1

Image
Buying a used car can be harrowing, whether privately or from a dealer. Here are some tips, as well as some things to watch out for. Beware of low mileages, especially on smaller or cheaper cars. It is always possible that the odometer has been turned back. Some things to bear in mind are:- diesels are often bought because they the driver needs to undertake long trips without consuming vast amounts of fuel. This could be a sales rep, or someone travelling large distances to work, lots of lengthy trip for family holidays, etc. So, usually higher mileages than normal. An expensive or luxury car may not see much time on the road, but very seldom a “workhorse”. This makes the executive cars likely to have a lot more life left than the overworked and abused hatchback. These also spend most of their life in a home garage or undercover parking lot at work.
