UK specifications — not the Australian certification
This model has not been certified for sale in Australia yet, so there is no ADR fuel label and no Green Vehicle Guide record for it. The figures below are the manufacturer's own WLTP numbers, published here so you can size the car up early. Expect the Australian figures to differ. Local pricing, warranty and any ANCAP rating are unknown and deliberately left blank rather than estimated.
Overview
The 2026 BMW M4 Coupe Manual is a high-performance rear-wheel drive sports car designed for drivers who prioritise engaging, traditional motoring over modern automatics, delivering 353kW and 550Nm from its 3.0-litre petrol engine. Its standout strength is the six-speed manual transmission paired with responsive steering and precise chassis tuning, offering a connected driving experience rarely found in contemporary performance coupes. Prospective buyers should note the 10.1L/100km fuel consumption is a significant consideration.

Low profile
Staggered means the rear tyres are a different size from the fronts, so they can't be rotated front to back.
Drawn at a shared scale across the compared cars and across both ends of a staggered car, so a bigger tyre is genuinely bigger. Sidewall view shows wall height (profile); tread view shows width. Price band is an indicative fitted cost, budget brand (low) to premium brand (high), for four of the one size or for two fronts plus two rears where the car is staggered, unless a verified set price is on file. Actual prices vary by brand, retailer and fitting.

Its standout strength is the balance of performance and practicality-the xDrive system delivers confident handling in wet conditions while the automatic gearbox and adaptive suspension make it genuinely liveable for daily commutes. The main consideration is fuel consumption at 10.2L/100km combined, so budget accordingly if you're not planning to keep fuel expenses as a secondary concern.
