BMW M4 2022 review: Convertible

By Byron Mathioudakis · 15 Mar 2022

It wears the M badge honourably.

BMW i4 2022 review

By Tung Nguyen · 14 Mar 2022

BMW was one of the first brands to commit to the electric future with its i3 hatchback, but its cutting-edge technology and bespoke platform drove up prices and kept it out of hands of everyone except early adopters.

BMW 4 Series 2022 review: 420i

By Peter Anderson · 07 Jul 2021

BMW's new 4 Series, launched late in 2020, has been unfairly treated by people who've never even clapped eyes on one in the metal. The big nose was all anyone could see, or even think about, which is a shame because a car of great substance lies beneath.

By Peter Anderson · 27 May 2021

BMW's big sedan was once a mainstay for the brand but is now relegated to a bit player in this SUV-mad market. Not wanting to let it fade away, the 5 Series comes in plug-in hybrid form, a stepping stone to full electrification. And a niche offering given Australia's largely uninterested buying public.
