The 2023 BMW M4 is a compact coupe offered in 4 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $72,000. For that price, it mainly competes with the Lexus RC F, the Mercedes-AMG E53 Coupe, and the Audi RS 5. Between 4 trims, the M4 offers a standalone powertrain with different outputs depending on the trim selection. The base engine is a 3.0L Twin-Turbocharged Inline-6 capable of making 473 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque. If more power is required, the same engine on the M4 Competition trims produces 503 horsepower whereas the newest M4 CSL caps the figure at 543 horsepower. A 6-Speed Automatic transmission is standard while an 8-Speed Automatic transmission is optional.
The M4 reaches 60 MPH from zero in 4.1 seconds on its base engine, which gets pumped up to 3.8 seconds on the M4 Competition. Depending on the powertrain output and drivetrain, the M4 can manage a combined fuel economy between 17 and 19 MPG. While we’re on the topic of choices, the 13 striking colors are offered on the M4 and the Sao Paulo yellow is a particular favorite of ours.
