I'm Wayne Cunningham here at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show in front of the BMW Concept 4 Series Coupe now the idea behind this car is that BMW is gonna separate their lines out of it they've got the 3 Series right now with a coupe a convertible and a sedan this should be the new coupe version of that car so there will be no more coupe version of the 3 Series as such it's a performance oriented car and the roofline is a little shorter than the current 3 Series Coupe it's also a little bit longer than that car 2 we see some new styling on this car which seems to point at a new BMW design language a nice little cues they have these inset elements like in the front air intake and also in these side vents on the front fenders as well it's BMWs released now specs for this car so we don't know what's gonna be under the hood or what options are gonna be available to help us a road-holding but I would expect the BMW will have a lot of the same engine throw some of the same engines they have in their current lineup most likely the engine in the current 335 is Q which is the 3 liter twin scroll turbo making 320 horsepower and 3 than 32 pounds of torque that'd be a likely fit for this car the concept we see here also has a manual transmission which goes along with that sport car enthusiast segment car in the cabin there's also a screen very similar to the cabin electronics and the current BMW 3-series so I would expect it to be very different there either be nubbies really good at standardizing their electronics across all their models so this will probably have no surprise as far as cabin tech it will probably be very similar to what's on the current BMW 3-series so acid yeah we don't know when a production version of this car would come out but it looks like it's very much intent on that we will probably see one within the next year I imagine I'm Wayne Cunningham here at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show
