It would appear that BMW jumped the gun a tiny bit, activating a link that formally announced how the unveiling of the all-new 4-Series Coupe was set to take place June 2nd.
Since then, the German carmaker took the link down, but not before the good folks at Germancarforum grabbed a screenshot, depicting the new model’s front fascia under dim lighting. Still, the massive grille is quite visible.
While we didn’t know the exact day, we have read reports stating that the new-gen 4-Series would be unveiled sometime in June, and we’ve known this for over a month now. Now however, knowing we’re roughly a week away from seeing just how “confident” BMW is when it comes to their new kidney grille designs, is quite exciting.

The large kidney grille design has already been leaked several times, but we reckon it goes way better with an M3 or an M4, as opposed to something like a 420i Coupe. Luckily we don’t need to wait too long in order to find out if we’re right or not.
Like the latest 3-Series, the 4-Series is also based on the carmaker’s CLAR platform, sharing its entire engine range with its more practical sibling. Aside from your usual four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel units, the 4-Series Coupe could also fancy itself as a plug-in hybrid model. Then there’s the M4 variant, which will borrow the X3 M and X4 M’s 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine.
As for the 4-Series’ interior, it will feature the exact same driver-oriented dashboard design and layout as the 3-Series, meaning a dual-screen setup (gauge cluster and infotainment), central air vents and a three-spoke steering wheel. There will of course be less room in the back, seen as how this is a traditional two-door Coupe.
