BMW M4

After the M division has finally revealed the new monster of the BMW 3 series, now a new baby monster was born, it is called the M4, we can say that it is made for people who think that the M3 is not powerful enough and yet, they say that the M5 is too much for them, the M4 is a new interpretation for a high performance sport car.
The M4's engine is a straight 6 twin turbo producing not less than 431bhp and 550Nm of torque. The engine turns up to 7600rpm, thanks to its twin turbo, the result is a linear power delivery over a wide engine speed range, from 0 to 100km/h takes 4.1 seconds and top speed is electronically limited to 250km/h, if the owner go for the  optional M package the top speed continue till 280km/h, even all this power, the consumption is more than reasonable, the M 4 average 8.4l/100km. BMW wanted to make this car not only for race tracks but for everyday's use as well, that's why they have developed a superb cooling system to control the temperature of the engine in high speed and in the city as well; alongside the ultradynamic twin turbocharger units, the air intake system of the engine also includes an indirect intercooler, maximising charge pressure and engine output. As well as a main radiator, the track-ready cooling concept also comprises a water cooler repositioned to the side for the high- and low temperature water circuits.
The power is transferred to the wheels thanks to the 6 sped manual transmission with double plate clutch. this manual gearbox uses a new carbon friction linings in its synchroniser rings. Dry sump lubrication supplies in a efficient way oil to all parts of the engine.
Also, there is a 7 speed M double clutch transmission Drivelogic with lunch control, this is the third generation of the M DCT, it prompts the new high-revving turbocharged engine into emotionally impressive feats. same as changing gear automatically, in manual mode the gear change is very quick. The Launch Control function ensures optimum sprinting performance off the line, producing acceleration figures that would be out of range with the manual gearbox.
As for the power steering, in the M4 is it completely electronic allowing more precision around corners thanks to an integrated Servotronic that adjusts the level of steering assistance depending on the car's speed, providing optimum steering at all speeds. it offers the driver three settings. COMFORT, SPORT and SPORT+ modes allow the level of steering assistance to be perfect for any driving style and situation.
About the interior, BMW did not forget to mention to the driver and passengers that they are inside no ordinary BMW, but a very sporty M 4 with the M door sill finishers, an M driver's footrest, M gearshift lever, M-design instruments with white graphics, M leather steering wheel with chrome trim, colour contrast stitching and bucket seats like the ones fitted in race cars.

M4 owners can look forward to drive this kind monster from behind a double-spoke M leather steering wheel. The M logo, chrome trim.
