BMW Concept 4 is a clear path of the next-generation BMW M3 and M4

A rendering image of this car first appeared in July this year. From the picture it is clear the direction of the next generation of the BMW M3 and M4. At first we expected the giant radiator grille seen in the virtual drawings will remain just fiction, but it turned out that the company is indeed playing with the idea of delivering its new performance vehicles a double kidney grille.

And now one of the German giant auto manufacturers, BMW presented its new BMW Concept 4 making its debut at the 2019 Frankfurt Motor Show. This car previews the next-generation 4 Series, M3 and M4.

As quoted from Motor1, overall the look of this car is nice and classy, but it can't be help with the double kidneys shaped grille that looks less proportionate to its front fascia. And furthermore they wrote that it's oversized and does not fit into the overall car design language.

However, the company said that those shape was inspired by its iconic models such as the BMW 328 and 3.0 CSi. The only good news is that this is still a concept and the automaker is probably still testing the waters with this design solution. Who knows, hopefully, the production M3 and M4 would not be getting a similar layout.

"The kidney has always stood for BMW,” Domagoj Dukec, head of design at BMW, says. “The BMW Concept 4 sets them confidently and with high quality like no other vehicle so far. The BMW Concept 4 provides a look at the expressive face of the new 4 Series."

On the other hand, the laser headlights applied are a work of art. The sleek clusters doesn't have a glass that covers them but instead relies on a three-dimensional structure with expossed inner elements. Just below the headlights, BMW places a massive air openings that can provide fresh air intake to the engine compartment and the brakes. The exterior is then given the finishing touches in the stunning Forbidden Red hue, which further emphasizes the dramatic contours of the body.

Adrian van Hooydonk, design director at the BMW Group explained, that the BMW Concept 4 embodies the aesthetic essence of the BMW brand: it connects ideal proportions with a clear, precise design.

There's no technical details currently available but we'd expected a range of turbocharged inline-four- and six-cylinder engines will send power to the rear or optionally all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission system. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | BMW BLOG | MOTOR1 | AUTOBLOG]
