The G22 will be produced alongside - and shares many features with - the G20 3 Series. As with the G20 3 Series range, the 4 Series are powered by turbocharged petrol and diesel engines. Unlike its predecessor, the new 4 Series has a significant departure in design from the 3 Series in order to distinguish between the two models and to move the 4 Series upscale. The most notable of the design changes is the large kidney grille at the front which was inspired by the 1930s BMW 328.
