BMW Report: No New M4 or 4-Series, Electric i4 Models Coming Soon

BMW’s Future Plans

• A recent report suggests BMW is not planning a new M4 or 4-Series.
• Instead, electric i4 Coupe and Convertible models are in the works.

Potential Changes in BMW’s Lineup

Speculation is rife about BMW’s lineup changes, with reports indicating the potential discontinuation of the Z4, 8-Series Coupe, and Convertible. While not confirmed, these moves wouldn’t be surprising given their limited sales numbers.

The Fate of the 4-Series

According to sources cited by BMW Blog, a new generation of the 4-Series might not be on the horizon. Reports suggest that BMW is not planning to develop a 4-Series based on the CLAR architecture.

Transition to Electric Power

Despite the uncertainty surrounding the traditional 4-Series, BMW is looking towards an electric future with the introduction of the i4 Coupe and Convertible based on the Neue Klasse architecture.

Potential Return of Gasoline Models

While a gasoline-powered M4 seems unlikely at the moment, BMW’s electrification plans are well underway, hinting at a shift towards electric powertrains.

Future Production Plans

Bimmerpost suggests that the M4 and 4-Series will continue production until June 2028, with the next-generation i4 slated to enter production in July. The future remains uncertain, but BMW’s electrification strategy is clear.
