New 2021 BMW M4 sheds more camouflage at the N?rburgring

The all-new BMW M4   is tipped for a reveal next month, and   fresh N?rburgring spy shots show that it will feature the same striking upright grille as the standard 4 Series, while gaining extra air intakes and flared arches for a sportier stance.

Earlier this year the M4 was seemingly caught completely undisguised in a leaked online image.   The image, first posted on   Reddit   from what looks like a   BMW facility, showed   the model's front-end look without disguise for the first time.   Now, these latest images appear to confirm that the leaked car was the full-fat M4, rather than a modified version of the 4 Series.

The M4's grille   appears to be even more prominient than that of the new 2020 4 Series on which its based,   thanks to black detailing. It's also flanked by new lower intakes, as is typical with M models. BMW claims the new grille design   is inspired by that of the iconic 328 sports car from the 1930s.  

2020 BMW 4 Series Coupe revealed with dramatic new look

Previous spy shots showed the new generation of Munich's sports coup? with limited disguise, with bulky rear wheel arches that afford a more muscular stance, and a swooping rear deck like that of the brand's flagship M8.   Differences between this and the standard 4 Series are familiar, with the return of bigger intakes and quad exhaust tailpipes.  

We already know that the new BMW M3 and M4   will receive a significantly upgraded six-cylinder engine producing more than 500bhp in its top form.  

The flagship model to use this new engine will be a new M4 Gran Coup? (imagined by Autocar below), the first time the four-door coup? has featured a full-fat M variant. The coup? and convertible will also return   beside the M3 saloon.  

The 3.0-litre powerplant, which carries the internal codename S58, is a development of the firm’s standard B58 unit, as used in the existing 440i and other BMW models.
