2026 BMW M4 review

BMW M4: built for the drive, not the errand. Illustrative review

9.1/10 OffLot expert score

The 2026 BMW M4 sits near the top of its class. Engine note that rewards the throttle; sharp steering and a willing chassis. Premium fuel recommended and stiff ride on broken roads, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $82,000, it costs more than most direct rivals.

Great daily driver

Twelve thousand miles in. Nothing has gone wrong, dealer service has been easy, and the steering feel still impresses passengers.

★★★★★Andre G. · Columbus, OH · 19 months owned
Exactly what we needed

Bought it for the weekend drives and it has handled everything so far. Fuel economy has been close to the sticker in mixed driving.

★★★★★Andre J. · Austin, TX · 13 months owned
Great daily driver

We cross-shopped three others and this won on steering feel. the firm ride is the trade-off.
