We’ve unearthed local pricing for the facelifted BMW 4 Series Coupe ahead of its arrival in South Africa. Here’s how much you’ll pay for the updated 2-door model…
The facelifted BMW 4 Series Coupe – revealed as recently as January 2024 – is scheduled to launch in South Africa in the 3rd quarter of this year. However, the Munich-based firm has already added the updated 4 Series to its local configurator, revealing prices in the process.
For now, only the refreshed versions of the 420i Coupe and 420d Coupe have appeared, with no sign yet of the updated M440i xDrive nor M4 Competition. Similarly, no word yet on pricing for the facelifted 4 Series Cabriolet and 4 Series Gran Coupe.
So, to pricing: according to the local configurator, the refreshed 420i Coupe will kick off at R1 015 242 (that’s an increase of R41 175 over the outgoing version), while the updated 420d Coupe will start at R1 062 358 (up R41 481 compared with the pre-facelift version). As before, the M Sport kit will be included as standard on both derivatives in South Africa.
The 420i Coupe will again be powered by a turbocharged 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine, which delivers an unchanged 135 kW and 300 Nm to the rear wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. As such, the claimed 0-100 kph time remains 7.5 seconds, with top speed again pegged at 240 kph.
Meanwhile, the 420d Coupe will employ a 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder turbodiesel heart, offering the rear axle 140 kW and 400 Nm, likewise through an 8-speed auto. However, according to the international press material, this oil-burning engine gains a 48V mild-hybrid system generating an additional 8 kW. As such, the claimed 0-100 kph time falls from 7.2 seconds to 7.1 seconds, while maximum speed remains 240 kph.
The LCI (Life Cycle Impulse) version of the 4 Series Coupe will furthermore be available with a few individual options, including larger alloy wheels (measuring up to 19 inches in diameter, for R26 000), various leather upholstery choices (up to R84 000) and several interior trim finishes (up to R12 000).
There’s also a Deluxe Package, priced at R70 000 and including items such as an automatic tailgate, comfort access, a glass sunroof, electric adjustment (with memory) for the driver’s seat and a Harman Kardon surround-sound system.
Buyers will also be able to specify the M Carbon exterior package (R35 000) and the M Sport Package Pro (R30 000), with the latter adding features such as a rear spoiler, red brake callipers, M seat belts and Shadow Line treatment for the headlamps and various exterior trim pieces.
