bmw m4
Thunder Edition
For the matter of buying a car, some people belong to the faction of "it is difficult to buy a man with money", while some people are more suitable for the faction of "listening to people's advice to eat well", and a friend of mine happened to step in the opposite direction, when he was buying his first car.
I chose an Audi S5 Coupe, and the model I highly recommended but ultimately failed was the BMW M2C.
After more than 4 years, after he bought a C43 to travel.
It's finally time to take on BMW's M Power, and this time he has his eye on the M4 Competition.
First of all, let's talk about my feelings about this car
Like:BMW is still the car company that can completely put the pedals and steering wheel in the driver's hands.
Dislikes: Even with the exhaust valve open, the M4C with the S58 is a little more low-key in terms of exhaust.
M Power has always been a series of models that have requirements for driving, whether it is from M2 to M3, M4, and then to M5, M8 are very pure driving machines, even in this era of hybrid + pure electric so proliferated, it still insists on the performance of high-horsepower and large-displacement pure fuel engines.
Of course, this is related to the concept of BMW and M Poewr, even if it is a pure electric model under BMW, it is still tuned to have a very driving texture, and it will not feel any different from a gasoline car except for the power mode.
In the BMW M Power, which is codenamed G series, the most eye-catching thing is the exaggerated front face air intake, which has attracted widespread attention and discussion when M3 and M4 have just been listed, but after more than 2 years on the market, it has been very adaptable and even cordial, which may be the so-called education of consumers, right
The G83 M4 Thunder Convertible version of this test drive is still a very classic BMW design style in terms of appearance, but because it is a convertible version, the rear of the body does not have a very elegant fastback shape, but is replaced by a foldable soft-top convertible, so it will appear that the length of this car is longer, although the body size is still 4803mm, but the visual experience will make this car look like 5 meters.
Speaking of the convertible mechanism, the G83 M4 is capable of operating the convertible at a speed of 50 km/h, and the opening and closing speed is also very fast, only 18 seconds, which is a rare speed in a convertible.
My personal favorite look is the way the soft top is opened, which makes this ferocious driving machine look even more elegant.
It is worth mentioning that the G82 M4 can only be lifted with two glasses on the left and right sides of the front row, while the G83 M4 is four glasses, and the glass in the second row can also be lifted and lowered, which is to make the body appear more coordinated after opening the soft top convertible, and the rear windows can only be adjusted on the driver's side, although the second row of the seating space is not as crowded as the other two-door cars, but the designers do not seem to have considered too many riding needs.
Not long after the release of this generation of M4, many people are saying that this generation of M4 is the closest to the Porsche 911 car, but I personally do not think so from beginning to end, Porsche 911 is more stable, like a rail car, and BMW M4 and even other M Power models will not put the word stable into the car manual, reasonable and controllable sliding has always been the driving pleasure that BMW pursues.
The biggest change is that this generation of M4 integrates the M xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive system with an active M differential, which can now provide three modes to switch freely, namely 4WD, 4WD sports mode and rear-wheel drive mode, which shows BMW's obsession with sliding the butt up.
The S58 with an 8-speed automatic manual transmission is already BMW's best power combination, with a maximum power of 375kW and a maximum torque of 650Nm that are on par with the book data of many V8 engines.
Therefore, even if many consumers think that the M4 is almost interesting when it is not interesting to use a six-cylinder engine, the M Power department has handed over an answer sheet with more powerful power and torque, and with the four-wheel drive system, this generation of M4 has come to 3 even if it is a convertible version of 000 acceleration time7 seconds, both movement and stillness can be said to be the most suitable evaluation of this generation of M4.
Whether you are a track veteran with rich driving experience or a driving enthusiast who has just picked up the car, you can take the fun of this M4 to the extreme, this car is one thing to drive fast, anyone can drive this car fast is another level.
