2024 BMW 4 Series: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The 2024 BMW 4 Series gets a light interior and technology update rather than a redesign. The headline change is a standard curved dual-screen dashboard with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and 14.9-inch touchscreen.
About the 2024 BMW 4 Series
Second-generation 4 Series family: G22 Coupe and G23 Convertible launched for 2021, G26 Gran Coupe launched for 2022. Model year 2024 is the last pre-refresh year before the 2025 update.
BMW positions the 4 Series as the sleeker, more style-driven sibling to the 3 Series. It is meant for buyers who want a lower, more dramatic shape and a more driver-focused feel without giving up everyday luxury features. The range spans classic coupe and convertible body styles plus the more practical Gran Coupe hatchback, while M440i versions add easy six-cylinder speed for shoppers who want strong performance without stepping into a full M4.
The 430i is the balanced core model, while xDrive versions add all-wheel drive and Gran Coupe models provide rear doors and a practical hatch. The M440i steps up to a 382-hp six-cylinder engine and sport-focused hardware, and every version has navigation plus wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Styling
