Design of the 2018 BMW M4
The 2018 BMW M4 has an exceptionally aerodynamic and aggressive design that draws the attention of onlookers wherever the vehicle is driven.

Exterior
From front to back, the new BMW M4 has been exceptionally crafted to command the attention of the onlookers. The front fascia of the coupe features the signature BMW kidney grille with stylish chrome accents to add to the sporty appeal of the vehicle. Below the grille is a huge air dam that has been flanked by equally big air intakes that work together to improve the engine cooling function of the coupe.
On either side of the grille are the stylish new LED Headlights that illuminate the road for the driver. The hood has been sharply sculpted to further enhance the aerodynamics and to improve the airflow around the vehicle.
The designers have used lightweight Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic in the construction of the vehicle to reduce the overall weight of the vehicle. BMW is calling the all-new M4 a “featherweight heavy hitter” as the Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic has been used in the construction of the trunk lid, roof and engine brace.
Many M specific design elements can be seen on the vehicle such as the Air Breathers behind the front fenders to improve the aerodynamics of the 2018 M4. To further accentuate the athletic stance of the coupe, the designers at BMW have added muscular fenders and 18-inch V Spoke Ferric Gray forged light alloy wheels that have been fitted with run-flat performance tyres.
At the rear of the 2018 BMW M4 is a carbon fibre reinforced tailgate with an integral spoiler to add to the aerodynamics of the vehicle. The LED taillights have been redesigned to exult the charismatic BMW elegance while still remaining true to the overall sporty design. The M diffuser and the angled M twin tailpipes blend perfectly into the rear apron to add to the sporty appeal of the vehicle.
The exterior of the 2018 BMW M4 is available in 11 colors that are Alpine White, Black Sapphire Metallic, Mineral White Metallic, Mineral Grey Metallic, Austin Yellow Metallic, Yas Marina Blue Metallic, Sakhir Orange Metallic, Azurite Black Metallic, Champagne Quartz Metallic, Tanzanite Blue Metallic and Smoked Topaz Metallic.
