2025 BMW 4 Series Convertible Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2025 BMW 4 Series coupe and convertible are available in four configurations: 430i, 430i xDrive, M440i and M440i xDrive. The 430i is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and an electric motor (255 horsepower, 295 lb-ft), while the M440i has a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six and an electric motor (386 horsepower, 398 lb-ft). An eight-speed automatic is the only available transmission. Rear-wheel drive is standard, and xDrive models are all-wheel-drive. Notable standard equipment includes:

430i
The base 4 Series is anything but basic, featuring:

  • 18-inch wheels
  • LED headlights
  • Sunroof (coupe only)
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control
  • Synthetic leather upholstery
  • Power-adjustable front seats

  • 10-speaker audio system
  • Navigation system
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

BMW also equips the 430i with these driver aids:

  • Forward collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Lane departure warning (alerts you if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane)
  • Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse)
  • Parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible behind or in front of the vehicle when parking)
  • Automatic high-beam headlights

430i xDrive
Aside from its standard all-wheel-drive system, the 430i xDrive is identical to the 430i. All of the 430i's packages and optional extras are available as well.

The 430i models are available with several option packages including:

  • Driving Assistance Professional package
    • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the 4 Series and the car in front)
    • Extended Traffic Jam Assistant (can accelerate the vehicle from a complete stop of up to 30 seconds in heavy stop-and-go traffic)
    • Lane keeping system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
    • Partially automated steering, braking and acceleration on the highway at speeds under 40 mph
    • Evasive steering assistance (enhances the forward collision mitigation system with steering-based collision avoidance)
    • Front cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle ahead is about to cross your path)
  • Convenience package
    • Proximity keyless entry
    • Remote engine start

    • Adaptive suspension dampers (automatically adjust to maximize ride comfort or handling ability)
    • Increased top speed limiter
  • Parking Assistance package
    • Automated parking system (steers into a parking spot with little or no driver intervention)
    • 360-degree camera system (gives you a top-down view of the 4 Series and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
    • Front and rear parking sensors with low-speed automatic braking

M440i
Tuned to deliver additional performance, the more powerful M440i has:

  • Unique 19-inch wheels with performance tires
  • Upgraded head- and taillights
  • Rear spoiler
  • M Sport package
  • Dynamic Handling package (minus adaptive dampers)
  • Convenience package

M440i xDrive
The M440i xDrive is the same as the M440i but comes with all-wheel drive.

Unless they are otherwise included, the 430i shares its Premium package and other option packages with the M440i. The M Carbon Exterior package is available exclusively on the M440i and includes:

    • Carbon-fiber mirror caps and rear spoiler
    • Upgraded air inlet and rear diffuser panel trim

Notable stand-alone options on the 4 Series include:

  • Many different wheels and tires
  • Remote engine start (430i)
  • Heated steering wheel (430i)
  • Ventilated front seats
  • Neck warmers (convertible only)
  • Harman Kardon audio system
  • Dash cam

Which 4 Series trim does Edmunds recommend?

The M440i is a fantastic car, with gobs of power and an exhilarating, throaty exhaust note. The additional standard equipment chips away at the price difference between it and the 430i, but if you still balk at the premium, the 430i delivers plenty of oomph.
