BMW Launches Refreshed 4 Series and i4 In Singapore

BMW Asia has just unveiled two exciting new additions to their line-up in Singapore, the all-electric BMW i4 and the refreshed BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe.


At first glance, both the i4 and the 4 Series Gran Coupe sport slim headlights and that unmistakable vertically aligned BMW kidney grille.

But, the i4’s electric powertrain means it needs less cooling, so you’ll notice its kidney grille has a fully enclosed upper section. The i4 also gets an M Sport package as standard, with a diffuser element in the rear bumper.

On the flip side, the 4 Series Gran Coupe opts for a more traditional look. Its air intakes now feature a mesh structure in matte Quartz silver, and the twin exhausts have grown, now measuring a brawny 100mm in diameter, up from 90mm.

Then there’s the i4 M50 xDrive, which boasts a design clearly inspired by the M4. The iconic BMW kidney grille is decked out in high-gloss black, complete with the BMW M logo.

One thing all three cars share is BMW’s Adaptive LED headlights as standard. Rims-wise, the i4 rolls on 19-inch M aerodynamic wheels as standard, while the 4 Series Gran Coupe gets 18-inch M wheels. The i4 M50 xDrive, of course, comes with 19-inch M light alloy wheels.

Inside, all models now come with a newly designed M leather steering wheel. It’s got a three-spoke design with a flat-bottomed rim, and the i4 M50 xDrive even throws in BMW M-coloured decorative stitching and a bold red centre marker for good measure.

BMW’s latest iDrive system (BMW OS 8.5) with QuickSelect is also present, for controlling vehicle functions or accessing digital services. Most functions are now operated through touch or voice commands.

For those ready to embrace the electric revolution, BMW Asia is making the transition a breeze with a choice of two EV charging packages. Opt for home charging, and you’ll get a BMW Wallbox with complimentary installation.

Prefer to charge on the go and you’ll receive 10,000kWh of charging over three years at Shell Recharge stations.
