The all-new BMW 4 Series (G22 generation) made its global debut yesterday. The model will go on sale in Europe starting October 2020.

Unlike the previous 4 Series, this all-new G22 generation 4 Series sports a distinctively different design from 3 Series sedan that it based on. 

European sales will start in October with 5 variants: 

• 420i 
• 430i
• M440i xDrive
• 420d
• 420d xDrive

The 430d xDrive and M440i xDrive will join the line-up in March 2021.

The flagship M440i model is powered by a 3-litre twin turbocharged 374 PS inline six-cylinder petrol engine. Other options include two 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engines and one 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbodiesel, both available in various states of tune. 

The engines will also be paired with BMW’s 48V Mild hybrid technology, which employs a starter-generator boosting the engine's output with an additional 8 kW /11 PS. 

The 4 Series will come with a standard eight-speed automatic transmission. There's also an optional eight-speed automatic Sport with new Sprint function for better acceleration. 

All models come with standard LED headlights. Adaptive LED Headlights are available as an option. The rear lights feature darkened LED rear lights with L-shaped light bars.

Designed centred for a sporty driving experience, the interior features a new display grouping with up to 10.25-inch Control Display and an optional, fully digital 12.3-inch instrument cluster.

Leather sports steering wheel and sports seats come as standard, but knee pads on the centre console are optional. 

Control panel with high-quality design on the centre console, new sports leather steering wheel and newly developed leather sports seats are standard, while knee pads on the centre console are optional.

The outgoing F32 4 Series is currently selling in Malaysia from RM424,800.00. We can expect the all new 4 Series in Malaysia in 2021.
