Compared to the regular BMW 4 series, the M4 GTS doesn’t differ at all, when the design of kidney grills and headlights is concerned.

The headlights will feature laser lamps, while taillights will have an OLED variant of the lamps.

The new 2016 BMW M4 GTS is expected to have a 3.0 liter twin turbocharged six cylinder S55 – the same engine that the M4 has. It will, however be quite more powerful. The new engine will have 470 HP and 530 Nm of torque, capable of delivering top speed of 250 km/ph and pushing the car from zero to 100 in just 3.5 seconds. Engine tweaks include the new exhaust and intake system.
