Exterior highlights in the M Competition package.
On the exterior, the M Competition package makes a great impression with exclusive, forged and gloss-lathed 20" M light alloy wheels Star-spoke style 666 M with mixed tyres. The athletic character is emphasised by the BMW Individual high-gloss Shadow Line with extended features, which runs in Black high-gloss from the front kidney grille over the gills to the model designation, ending at the black chrome-plated tailpipes.
Exclusive carbon roof.
As part of the BMW intelligent lightweight construction concept, the Carbon roof made of carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) helps to reduce the vehicle's weight, shifting the car's centre of gravity lower. This leads to an increase in agility and dynamics when taking a bend, accelerating and braking.
LED rear lights.
State-of-the-art LED technology guarantees optimum visibility with maximum efficiency and service life. Large-area blinkers and quick-reacting LED brake lights increase safety. A character-defining feature by night and by day is the distinctive L-shape of the rear lights.
Low-beam headlights.
The Adaptive LED headlights allow drivers to see deep into corners as soon as they start turning the steering wheel. In this way, cornering lights provide optimum illumination of the immediate surroundings and therefore increase active driving safety.
BMW Selective Beam.
BMW Selective Beam automatically adjusts the high-beam headlights according to light and traffic conditions. The system registers the presence of vehicles in front or oncoming traffic and can be depended on to avoid dazzling other road users by smoothly adjusting the high-beam lights to suit.
Driver-oriented cockpit.
A cockpit fit for the racetrack. Every detail is ergonomically optimised and oriented directly to the driver. At the centre is the elegant M leather steering wheel with its soft leather ‘Nappa’ covering. Its M Drive buttons can be used to activate individual setups, while sports-style gearshift paddles together with the optional M double-clutch transmission enable gear changes in fractions of a second. The instrument display in a striking M design provides a perfect view of all relevant driving data.
M seats.
The bucket-style M seats with integral head restraints and illuminated M logo at shoulder level offer perfect side support and encourage new personal bests. Because their systematic use of lightweight construction helps to reduce the vehicle’s weight. For extra support during sporty driving, there is a knee pad on the driver’s side of the centre console.
High-quality interior.
Genuine exclusivity stands up to the scrutiny of a second glance. The interior trim finishers 'Carbon Fibre' with highlight trim finisher Black Chrome illustrate this perfectly with their unique surface finish radiating maximum dynamism. Also guaranteeing a sporty yet individual interior is the high-quality full leather upholstery 'Merino' Bicolour Sakhir Orange / Black.
M4 door sill finishers.
Even before you take a place in the ergonomic M seats of the BMW M4 Coupé, your attention is bound to be caught by the exclusive door sill finishers made from exclusive aluminium with M4 model logo.
