New 2027 BMW 4 Series Features, Engine, Pictures
New 2027 BMW 4 Series Features, Engine, Pictures – BMW may have been the first to introduce the tiny sport sedan in the 1960s and 1970s with the 2 Series and then the 3 Series. Other people who want the handling capabilities of a sports car with the inside of a luxury sedan also adored this vehicle, in addition to the Yuppies. Sales suggest that SUVs and electrified cars are now dominating BMW’s portfolio. 2026 BMW 4 Series Features
Although BMW isn’t exactly known for producing drivers’ cars, fans of fast coupes and sedans may nevertheless find comfort at a BMW dealership, where models from the 2 Series to the 8 Series, to varied degrees, live up to the reputation. As the BMW portfolio grows and evolves, the 2027 4 Series, a stunning grand touring vehicle, serves as a pleasant reminder of the iconic 3 Series’ progress in terms of refinement and complexity.
New 2027 BMW 4 Series Redesign and Update Plan
Exterior and Interior
The suspension has been tuned for performance and tends more toward sportiness than suppleness. Even still, the adaptive drive settings can be set to take the edge off most bumps, and even in sport mode the ride isn’t as vicious as some of BMW’s sportiest machines from the past that prompted regular chiropractic visits.
BMW’s sport seats offer a lot of adjustability, including under-thigh support and side bolsters, but the leather in this tester seemed stretched extra tight over particularly stiff cushions, making them hard during long stints behind the wheel. Wind and road noise are very well suppressed, and engine noise only becomes notable when the driver calls for it in sport mode and with heavy throttle application. New 2027 BMW 4 Series Features
New 2027 BMW 4 Series Specs
All of the 4 Series’ finishes are indicative of its status as a luxury vehicle, although as is common for BMW, most of the extras are expensive. This test vehicle’s many features, including its spacious sunroof, integrated navigation, satellite radio, rain-sensing wipers, and seamless wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, were all highlighted.

The test car also had heated (but not cooled) seats and a heated steering wheel, both of which were part of options packages in the U.S. but come standard in Canada. Shockingly, there was no adaptive cruise control, which is part of the Canadian-spec Driver Assistance package. The upgraded stereo is also an added-cost option, but its stellar sound quality makes it worth the added expense.
Engine and Performance
While the 3 Series has had four-, six-, and even eight-cylinder engines beneath its hood over the years, BMW’s celebrated inline six-cylinder has been one of its most endearing. Straight-sixes have helped define the 3 Series as a sport sedan over the years thanks to smooth, linear, free-revving power delivery.
A 48-volt mild-hybrid system is housed between the turbocharged 3.0L six-cylinder and the standard eight-speed automatic transmission in the New 2027 4 Series, continuing the tradition. Although the hybrid offers better operational economy, its true value lies in the extra responsiveness it provides when the throttle is pressed.
The 4 Series’s impressive 382 hp is appreciated, but it’s the 369 lb-ft of torque available from just off-idle speeds that provides gobs of thrust to generate the real excitement. It’s all backed by a delicious snarl and growling exhaust note, even if some of those sounds are enhanced by the audio system. Meanwhile, the eight-speed is smooth and unobtrusive most of the time, but it can snap off wickedly quick shifts in sport mode. New 2027 BMW 4 Series Features
New 2027 BMW 4 Series Fuel Economy
Impressively efficient for a sedan with enough power to reach 100 km/h in 4.4 seconds (however that’s being cautious), it’s also rather quiet inside. As a result, the 4 Series gets the most out of the premium petrol it is fed, with city/highway fuel economy ratings of 7.4 and 9.0 respectively. Despite exceeding Canadian speed limits on the highway and engaging in many deep throttle dives on back roads, the test car managed an impressive average of 32 mpg (7.4 L/100 km) over the Vegas journey, according to the trip computer.

New 2027 BMW 4 Series Safety Features
BMW offers plenty of passive and active safety features on the 4 Series, however, many of them are bundled into sometimes confusing option packages. Fortunately, BMW Canada offers fewer – if costlier packages – that are more inclusive. For the full gamut of driver assistance, the $2,000 Advanced Driver Assistance pack should do the trick.

New 2027 BMW 4 Series Price and Release Date
BMW’s 3 Series has never been a cheap car, but with careful option selections, it can be a decent value. The 4 Series is capable of very impressive performance, with power that would’ve eclipsed the vaunted M3 from even a few years ago, but as its size and technology has increased, and so has its sticker price. A similarly specced Canadian car to this American tester rings in at $78,345 before freight and taxes.
More than one million units of the current generation 3 Series have been sold globally, making this the most successful generation yet – and that’s in spite of a growing love for SUVs. And while BMW’s small sport sedan is not so small anymore, it still offers a masterful blend of style, performance, and luxury that’s made it such a popular choice for nearly 50 years. New 2027 BMW 4 Series Features
The New 2027 BMW 4 Series gets subtle but effective styling updates, and aligns the cockpit design with other contemporary BMW models that are dominated by the large glass panel dashboard. Whether this is actually an improvement or annoyance will be up to individual customer tastes, but there’s no question BMW’s class-defining sport sedan remains a competent and rewarding driving experience, and a brilliant grand tourer.
