‘Hey, Big Mouth!’ 5Series.net Drives the Controversial-Looking New BMW Four

The new BMW Four Series’ bold styling may be divisive. But the pun in that headline is fully intended

Hey, big mouth! I’m talking to you… BMW says its all-new 4 Series’ styling is ‘standalone’. We say its controversial big-mouthed face has divided opinion like few cars ever before.

“The BMW Four is Growing on Me”

Company suits call it edgy. They remind us that the car will match its expected extravagant owners’ character to the tee. Well, with a mouth like that… They also say it also borrows its cues from legendary BMW coupés to reflect the engine’s cooling needs. It definitely has a distinctive character, squarely focused on delivering dynamic driving pleasure.

Well, after finally witnessing it in the flesh, I have to confess that the new Four is starting to grow on me. It certainly very clearly differentiates itself from its four-door 3 Series sedan siblings. BMW speak defines the new Four as ‘a signature coupé with edgy, clean surfacing and a striking front end. And it certainly has split opinion. Right from the get-go.
