When it comes to sporty and compact luxury cars, few can match BMW’s 4 Series lineup. Both sophisticated and economical, the 430i is the perfect car for those looking to travel in style while
commuting, running errands around town, or just cruising. Here are a few things you’ll want to know about the 2021 BMW 430i coupe/convertible.
Basics About the 2021 BMW 430i
Efficient Turbocharged Powertrain
BMW is never one to skimp out on power, so the 430i’s 2.0L inline-four engine is fitted with a turbocharger to produce a robust 255 horsepower and 294 lb-ft of torque. Couple that with the highly responsive 8-speed Sport Automatic transmission with manual shift mode and great fuel economy at an EPA-rated 26/34/29, city/highway/combined MPG for a truly compelling driving experience.
High-performance ventilated disc brakes and 5-link rear suspension will inspire confidence when negotiating corners.
Stylish M Sport Package
If you’re looking to make your 430i’s already aggressive appearance stand out even more, consider the M Sport Package. On the outside, the package adds the slick Shadowline exterior trim and 19-inch double-spoke M bi-color wheels for a sportier look. The Aerodynamic Kit improves airflow and upgraded M sport suspension stiffens the ride to improve handling.
Inside M Sport Package-equipped models, you’ll find a thicker steering wheel with unique badging.
Gorgeous Interior
BMW surpasses expectations with the 430i’s updated cabin. Build quality is impressive and the finest materials are used, including available Vernasca leather upholstery, anthracite headliner, and open-pore fine wood oak trim. The dashboard’s lines are attractive and its controls are neatly laid out and easy to use.
Multi-zone climate control, available heated and ventilated seats, available heated steering wheel, and an extra lumbar support option adds to your comfort.
Intuitive Technology and Connectivity
Always at the forefront of technology, BMW made sure to include a number of user-friendly features with the 430i. For example, the Gesture Control option lets the center console recognize a number of natural gestures to allow you to make or receive calls, adjust volume, and activate 360 degree view. The Comfort Access option lets you unlock your doors simply by touching the handle.
Available BMW Teleservices include real-time updates on traffic and parking information (in select areas), vehicle tracking and recovery in case of theft, and voice control for multiple functions. The iDrive 7 infotainment system comes with an 8.8-inch or 10.3-inch touchscreen and allows for connectivity using Android Auto/Apple CarPlay or available mobile Wi-Fi.
Driver-Assistance and Safety Suite
BMW’s Active Protection System prepares occupants for an imminent collision by automatically pretensioning seatbelts, closing windows, and continuing to brake after the crash. The Active Driving Assistance system continually monitors the 430i’s surroundings and alerts the driver to potential collisions with other vehicles or pedestrians on the road.
For owners of the convertible version, the Rollover Protection System instantly deploys protection bars behind the rear head restraints to protect the driver and passengers in the event of a rollover.
Offering a uniquely stylish and well-equipped ride, the BMW 430i is the one to beat when it comes to sportiness and efficiency. Drivers are sure to enjoy its incredible handling and inviting interior. Schedule your test drive today with Tom Bush BMW Orange Park!
