We’ve received fresh spy shots of the 2021
BMW M4 Coupe which continues to feature a full body wrap. However, the
headlights and taillights are fully exposed, as are the oversized kidney
grilles. While in the photos released by the company last week the test cars
featured heavy camouflage over the grille, in these latest shots taken by Carscoops photographers we can see that BMW no longer shies away from showing off the M3
and M4’s huge kidneys.
These are quite possibly the most
revealing spy shots of the new BMW M4 Coupe as they also give us a good look at
the bumper, revealing two additional grilles than flank the kidneys, as well as
two vertical air intakes further to the sides. The lower grilles feature a
honeycomb mesh while the main grilles do not show their inserts yet.
The photos also provide the first
uncensored look at the LED taillights, which are clearly inspired by the
Concept 4 both in their shape and the light signature. Out back we also see the
quad round exhausts integrated into a diffuser, with the bumper also featuring
vertical reflectors echoing the air inlets at the front.
The BMW M wheels deserve special mention
thanks to their striking design; we can’t see what size they are but they come
wrapped with Michelin Pilot Sport rubber. While this set does not include
photos of the interior, we already know it looks just like the latest 3 Series
and 4 Series spiced up with BMW M goodies. As confirmed by BMW, both the 2021
M3 Sedan and M4 Coupe pack a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter straight-six engine
available in two states of tune. In base specification, the unit delivers 480
PS and it comes with a standard six-speed manual transmission
and rear-wheel drive.
There is also the choice of a Competition
model with 510 PS and 650 Nm, offered as standard
with an 8-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic and rear-wheel drive.
Later on, the M3 Competition and M4 Competition will also be available with the
latest version of the M xDrive four-wheel-drive system.
