The G22-generation 2024 BMW 4 Series facelift has just made its debut, introducing enhancements in cabin technology, design tweaks, and new features. As before, the refreshed 4 Series is offered in coupe or convertible variants.

JD Power recently released its 2023 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study (VDS), which showed that vehicle reliability has increased with an industry average of 186 problems per 100 (PP100) vehicles, an improvement of 6 PP100 from 2022. For context, a lower PP100 score is better. Even premium marques scored an improvement, lowering their score by 23 PP100. Vehicles from the 2020 model year were the focus of this study. Unsurprisingly, Lexus took the top spot of dependability in the premium brands seg

Currently, the BMW i4 M50 is the company’s only battery EV model to wear the vaunted tri-colour M badge. However, the i4 M50 is not a genuine M car in the way a M3 is.

Well, this is inevitable. With the EU banning combustion engines by 2035, it’s unsurprising that even the most iconic performance sedan – the BMW M3 – will reportedly tread a path to full electrification. BMW M boss Frank van Meel told Autocar, “Maybe it will go electric – but if it does, it will always be an M3. Whatever the powertrain, you should always be able to drive our cars and know they are M cars. We have stood the test of time for 50 years and will continue to do so.” “We’ve just been

Yes, this is indeed the first-ever BMW M3 Touring as there has never been a production M3 wagon. Based on the G80-generation BMW M3, the 2022 (G81) BMW M3 Touring adds practicality and a massive dose of appeal to enthusiasts, possibly enough to offset its front fascia. Unlike the M3 Sedan, the M3 Touring comes in only the Competition form with M xDrive all-wheel drive system. Which means the S58 3.0-litre twin-turbo straight-six makes 510 PS/650 Nm and is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmissi
