谍照记者近日拍到了宝马M4改款车照片。由于车身采用了轻度改款，可以很明显的看出，改款车与现行版没有明显变化。这辆原型车与M4 GTS特别版共享20英寸合金轮圈。该车前保险杠下部和格栅周围进行了伪装，这部分很可能会采用GTS版的造型。前大灯和尾灯组也将采用新的造型，不过不会有太大变化。内装虽然被黑布遮盖，但预计很大部分也将与现行版保持一致。M4 GTS是世界首款采用OLED尾灯组的量产版车型，这项配置也仅限于这款车。这意味着，M4将不太可能提供OLED尾灯组。至于动力系统，新车仍将搭载那台3.0升六缸双涡轮引擎，功率317千瓦/425马力，扭矩550牛米。手动版车型0-96公里/小时加速时间约为4.1秒，配备双离合器版本加速时间3.9秒。除了4系轿跑车和M4之外，宝马还将推出4系Gran Coupe四门版和敞篷版。
BMW M4 facelift spied riding on GTS' wheels
It was only a few days ago when our spies caught on camera a prototype of the 4-Series Coupe and now the M4 has been spotted. The light camo indicates there won’t be any significant changes compared to the current model, but that’s not really surprising taking into account its sedan counterpart went through very little modifications when it received a subtle facelift more than a year ago.
As you can see, this particular prototype appears to be riding on the same 20-inch wheels as the M4 GTS special edition. BMW applied some disguise on the lower area of the front bumper that will likely be derived from the GTS version. Some new graphics for the headlights and taillights are also on the agenda, but it’s nothing to get too excited about. The same thing can be said about the interior which although remains partially hidden underneath a black cover, it will be largely carried over from the M4 on sale today.
The M4 GTS became the first production car in the world to receive OLED taillights, and according to SCOTT26 from Bimmer Post these are exclusive to the model. That means it’s highly unlikely BMW will offer them on the regular M4 facelift which will reportedly come out around March 2017.
We wouldn’t hold our breath for any power upgrades taking into account the Life Cycle Impulse for the BMW M3 Sedan did not bring any tweaks to the biturbo 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine. That means it should solider on with 425 horsepower (317 kilowatts) and 406 pound-feet (550 newton-meters) of torque, enough to run the 0-60 mph (0-96 kph) sprint in 4.1 seconds with the manual and in 3.9 with the dual-clutch automatic.
Besides the regular 4-Series Coupe and its M4 equivalent, the sexy 4-Series Gran Coupe is also getting ready for a nip and tuck, as is the convertible version.
