2025 BMW 4 Series 430i Convertible Exterior Shown

Very Good

Get past its awkward front-end design, and you'll find the 4 Series is pretty pleasant and engaging to drive. The 430i has plenty of thrust, and the M440i's six-cylinder is truly special. A few quirks prevent it from being perfect, but the 4 Series is a well-rounded and exciting convertible.Read full review

Overview

by the Edmunds Experts

Updated: 2/2/2026

The two-door companion to BMW's celebrated 3 Series sedan, the 4 Series boasts a similar blend of performance, practicality and efficiency in stylish coupe and convertible forms. BMW's 4 Series Gran Coupe, which we review separately, shares its front-end styling with the coupe and convertible, but it sports four doors and a swoopier roofline that differentiates it from the 3 Series. For 2025, BMW gave the 4 Series a thorough tech makeover, with hybrid assistance for the engines, a next-generation infotainment system, and distinctive lighting elements front and rear.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

by the Edmunds Experts

Very Good

7.2

out of 10

We drove the BMW 4 Series on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Driving experience

7.2/10

How does it drive? We tested a rear-wheel-drive M440i convertible. It packs a lot of punch, and in our testing it ripped from 0 to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds — a full second quicker than a similarly equipped 430i coupe we also tested. Acceleration is punchy at highway speeds too.

Unfortunately, the brakes are grabby at low speeds and require a delicate foot to slow smoothly. The steering is a little vague during truly spirited driving. It's a mild disappointment in a BMW, though the reality is that rivals aren't appreciably better in this regard. Handling is a 4 Series strength, with stable composure around tight bends and a seemingly high limit for traction control intervention. The eight-speed automatic shifts smoothly and always seems to be in the right gear, making this an easy car to live with. The M440i's standard adaptive suspension provides a surprisingly supple ride.

Visibility out of the front isn't great. The flat hood makes placing the front of the car challenging, and the sideview mirrors can modestly obstruct your view through left turns. The convertible's thick rear roof pillars inhibit rear visibility too.

Comfort

6.2/10

How comfortable is it? The 4 Series' comfortable front seats feature multiple adjustments — including side bolster angle and thigh extension — that allow you to find an ideal seating position. There's decent legroom up front, but the compact dimensions limit the usefulness of the rear seat. Tall drivers will find it easier to fit in the convertible since it lacks the coupe's headroom-sapping sunroof.

The 4 Series' cabin has a lot of buttons, though most controls are grouped intuitively. The iDrive system's menus are dense and take time to learn, but most commonly used controls are just a few clicks away. There are a few puzzling layout quibbles — the charging pad is located in front of the cupholders, for example, so cups prevent access.

Wind and tire noise is kept to a minimum. We appreciate a tri-zone system in such a small convertible, but the automatic function bizarrely does not adjust fan speed. The sync function is also buried in a touchscreen menu.

Loading a child seat shouldn't be difficult (provided you have the top down). That said, the tight quarters mean that any adult in the front will have to scoot their seat forward to make a rear child seat fit.

In-cabin tech

9.7/10

How’s the tech? Wireless smartphone connectivity through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is now standard and worked flawlessly in our test car. You can also always charge with the four USB ports and optional charging pad. The navigation system is quite helpful, even returning Yelp reviews for nonresidential destinations. The voice control system does a great job of recognizing spoken addresses and point-of-interest requests. The 4 Series' available Harman Kardon audio system is also impressive and produces full and immersive sound.

Storage & cargo

8.3/10

How’s storage and cargo? The 4 Series convertible's trunk can hold a maximum of 13.6 cubic feet of stuff, which is on par with the Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet. The BMW's rear seats also fold down to increase carrying capacity, but the pass-through is on the narrow side. If you drop the top, you'll need to deploy a partition in the trunk, which will decrease the capacity to 10.6 cubes. But if you keep the top up, you can utilize the full trunk.

Interior storage is surprisingly good for a convertible of this size. There are trays and cubbies galore, and even rear passengers have storage solutions.

Value

7.2/10

Is it a good value? Prices start around $63,000 for the 430i and around $77,000 for the M440i; it's quite a bit more expensive than when it launched and only slightly less than a Mercedes CLE Cabriolet. Dedicated sports cars such as the Chevy Corvette Stingray convertible or Porsche 718 Boxster are more impressive dynamically. If you need four seats, the Ford Mustang GT offers similar performance for much less. We can't deny the 4 Series' top-notch construction, but some cabin surfaces could be nicer for this money.

Like rivals, BMW offers a four-year/50,000-mile bumper-to-bumper and powertrain warranty. BMW covers the first three scheduled maintenance visits, which is more generous than its direct rivals.

MPG

5/10

How’s the fuel economy? The 4 Series' EPA-estimated fuel economy is quite good for a luxury two-door, ranging from 28 mpg to 30 mpg combined, depending on the trim. In general, we've found that the EPA's estimates are easily achievable in real-world driving.

X factor

7/10

The 4 Series is quite fun from behind the wheel. Most drivers will be happy with the amount of power on tap even from the 430i. Though the steering doesn't live up to BMW's storied past, the controlled and nimble handling makes the 4 Series a joy to drive on serpentine roads.

Styling is subjective, but we've yet to meet a person who didn't recoil at the sight of the 4 Series' front end. Though repulsive, the swollen grille gives the 4 Series' front end a unique character, while the back end is a little derivative. Too bad, because the divisive sheetmetal disguises a capable and well-rounded sport convertible that's satisfying to drive.

Build & Price

2025 BMW 4 Series 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. Compare the 2025 BMW 4 Series trim levels in-depth.

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.

Competitors to consider

Compact luxury coupes and convertibles are a dying breed, leaving the 4 Series with few direct competitors. The Audi A5 and S5 offer similar power wrapped in less controversial sheetmetal at a lower price (especially considering that they come with all-wheel drive). The all-new Mercedes-Benz CLE is hoping to inject life into the segment, while the Lexus RC, at almost a decade old, is nearing the end of its life — and feels like it. Read our Expert Rating below for a thorough analysis of the 4 Series.

Edmunds spotlight: Standard hybrid system

Both the 430i's turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and the M440i's turbo 3.0-liter inline-six receive hybrid assistance for 2025. The electric motor isn't powerful enough to move the 4 Series on its own; rather, it supports the car's stop-start system and provides some extra push during acceleration. The 430i's 2.0-liter underwent a thorough reengineering to increase efficiency — which typically means reduced power — but the hybrid system means total system output is unchanged from last year, at 255 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. The M440i's six-cylinder wasn't as exhaustively reworked, and the electrical components nudge it up to 386 horsepower and 398 lb-ft, increases of 4 hp and 29 lb-ft, respectively.
