BMW reveals the M4 convertible
Highlights
German luxury carmaker, BMW has now revealed details of M4 Convertible, which is set to make its debut at the New York Motor Show. Going on sale in the UK in September, the car will cost 60,730 pounds (Approximately Rs 61 lakh).
Driving its power from the same 3.0-litre in-line six-cylinder engine as the M3 Saloon and M4 Coupe, the convertible churns out a maximum power output of 431bhp, while yielding 550m of torque. The car will be offered with an option of a six-speed manual or seven-speed M Double Clutch transmission.

The company says that "The M4 convertible exhibits all the hallmarks of a car created by BMW's high-performance specialists - lightweight engineering, carefully honed aerodynamics, advanced race-derived chassis tuning and electronic driver assistance technologies and a sporty elegant profile, open or closed."
What further improves the agility and efficiency of the M4 Convertible is the 60kg lesser wait it carries than the outgoing M3 Convertible. The company says that a low kerb weight of 1,750kg has been achieved through extensive use of aluminium for the bonnet, front wings and many of the chassis components, while carbon-fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) is used for the propeller shaft and strut brace in the engine compartment.
The features that the M4 Convertible will come equipped with are EfficientDynamics fuel-saving technologies, including Auto Start-Stop, Optimum Shift Indicator (in manual mode only with the M DCT transmission), Brake Energy Regeneration, on-demand operation of ancillary units, a map-controlled oil pump and a final drive with optimised warm-up behaviour.
