2022 BMW 4 Series: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 13, 2026
The biggest change for the 2022 BMW 4 Series is the arrival of the all-new second-generation Gran Coupe, a four-door model with a rear hatch. The coupe and convertible largely carry over after their 2021 redesign.
About the 2022 BMW 4 Series
2nd generation 4 Series: the G22 coupe and G23 convertible are in their second year, while the G26 Gran Coupe debuts for its first year.
BMW positions the 4 Series as the lower, sleeker, more style-driven alternative to the 3 Series. The point of the model is to blend premium small-luxury comfort and tech with sharper road manners and a more emotional shape, whether as a coupe, convertible, or four-door hatchback Gran Coupe. Buyers pick it when they want something more specialized and visually dramatic than a traditional sport sedan.
The 430i is the more relaxed 4 Series, with a 255-hp turbo four-cylinder engine, navigation, smartphone connectivity, and a driver-assistance safety suite. The new Gran Coupe adds four doors, five seats, and a power rear hatch, while the M440i models step up to a 382-hp turbo six-cylinder engine with mild-hybrid assist and sharper suspension and brake hardware.
What changed, by category
Structural
The second-generation Gran Coupe joins the range in 430i Gran and M440i xDrive Gran forms. Its four-door, five-seat body and large rear hatch add easier back-seat access and more flexible cargo space than the two-door coupe.

(1,452 reviews)
“I highly recommend a BMW m440i if you want a car to drive that has all the luxury of a high-end car, the performance of a sports car, and the no nonsense track record of the aviation industry. BMW just rocks it all the way around. Yes, some of their vehicles have their issues, but overall, you can't beat their quality, performance, and pure satisfaction that comes with owning and driving one.”
