BMW 4 Series offers a convertible version, along with a two-door hardtop version and a four-door hardtop version. The BMW 4 Series is a sporty B-segment car under the BMW brand, equipped with three engine options: a low-power 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, a high-power 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, and a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine. The low-power 2.0-liter turbocharged engine of the BMW 4 Series delivers 184 horsepower and a maximum torque of 270 Nm, with the maximum torque available between 1,350 and 4,600 rpm and the maximum power at 5,000 rpm. The high-power 2.0-liter turbocharged engine produces 252 horsepower and a maximum torque of 350 Nm, with the maximum torque available between 1,450 and 4,800 rpm and the maximum power at 5,200 rpm.

As a long-time BMW enthusiast, I can definitively tell you that the BMW 4 Series does indeed have a convertible version. This variant is marketed as the 4 Series Convertible in BMW's lineup, featuring an electrically operated soft-top design that can complete the opening/closing process in just 18 seconds, with operation possible at speeds up to 50km/h. I recall that the latest 4 Series convertibles are equipped with powerful 2.0T or 3.0T engines paired with ZF's 8AT transmission - the exhaust note with the top down is particularly captivating. However, it's worth noting that the convertible version weighs over 200kg more than the coupe, and trunk space is affected by the roof mechanism. Having test-driven a friend's car, I can confirm the chassis remains remarkably stable during cornering even with the top down - a testament to BMW's exceptional tuning expertise.

Having followed BMW models for over a decade, the 4 Series Convertible has always been one of my favorite model series. The current all-new 4 Series Convertible lineup has adopted a soft-top design, which is lighter and more aesthetically pleasing compared to the previous hardtop version. In fact, the convertible version isn't just about removing the roof—engineers specifically reinforced the chassis structure with additional strengthening components to compensate for rigidity loss. Performance-wise, the 430i variant can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in under 6 seconds, less than 0.5 seconds slower than the standard coupe version. It's worth noting that if you're considering buying used, pre-2018 models still feature the hardtop design, which takes up more trunk space when the roof is stowed.

Last week, I accompanied a friend to a BMW 4S store to check out cars, and the salesperson specifically introduced us to the 4 Series convertible. The currently available versions are quite well-equipped, with convertible options ranging from the entry-level 425i to the top-of-the-line M440i. Personally, I think the 430i version is the most worth recommending—its 2.0T engine delivers 258 horsepower, and the acceleration feeling with the top down is particularly exhilarating. The new models all come standard with a neck heating system, so driving with the top down in autumn and winter won’t be cold. However, compared to the regular version, the convertible is nearly 100,000 yuan more expensive, and the maintenance costs for the convertible top are significantly higher in the long run. This is something to consider carefully in advance.

I'm absolutely qualified to answer this, having just taken delivery of a 425i convertible last month. I can confirm the 4 Series has always offered convertible models, with the latest version featuring a soft-top design - the roof button is conveniently positioned next to the gear lever. The open-top driving experience is truly unique, especially during evening coastal drives. Do note that rear visibility is slightly compromised by the roof mechanism, requiring extra caution when parking. The interior mirrors the standard 4 Series, but the audio system receives special optimization to combat wind noise with the top down. If you're considering a purchase, I'd strongly recommend the Driving Assistance Package - safety features become even more crucial without a fixed roof overhead.

How to Know if There Are Traffic Police Checking Vehicles?

Highways: Generally, traffic police or highway patrol do not conduct vehicle checks on highways, except for criminal police. 2. National and Provincial Roads: Vehicle checks on national and provincial roads also require approval from higher authorities. Setting up unauthorized checkpoints constitutes "three types of road disorder." 3. Traffic Inspection Points: Traffic inspection points approved by higher authorities are usually fixed at key locations on national and provincial roads, selected to minimize disruption to traffic flow. When driving on the road, drivers often interact with traffic police. If signaled to stop by the police, the correct procedures are: 1. Pull Over Safely: Upon seeing the traffic police's stop signal, avoid slamming the brakes or jerking the steering wheel. Activate the right turn signal to alert following vehicles. Pull over to the right at the designated spot or the nearest safe location as instructed. 2. Turn Off Engine and Exit: After safely parking, turn off the engine and bring necessary documents like the driver's license and vehicle registration to present to the officer. 3. Cooperate Actively: If stopped for a routine inspection (not for a violation), cooperate by opening the car doors and trunk for examination.

What is a Car Fuel Pump?

Fuel pump refers to the device located at the bottom of the vehicle that draws fuel from the fuel tank, pressurizes it, and delivers it to the fuel supply pipe and engine combustion chamber. During operation, it works in conjunction with the fuel pressure regulator to generate a certain fuel pressure, serving as a fundamental component of the electronic fuel injection system in cars. Below is relevant information: 1. Structural features of the fuel pump: The fuel pump consists of an electric motor, a pressure limiter, and a check valve. The electric motor actually operates within the fuel inside the pump housing, where the fuel lubricates and cools the motor. Since there are no ignition sources inside the housing, it generally does not pose any danger. The check valve is installed at the fuel outlet, and the pressure limiter is located on the pressure side of the pump housing, featuring a passage that leads back to the fuel inlet. 2. Precautions for fuel pump inspection: When inspecting the fuel pump, the engine and other electronic components must not be in operation, as running them can affect the voltage applied to the fuel pump and current readings, thereby compromising the inspection results.

Should You Open the Engine Hood After Driving on the Highway?

It is not necessary to open the engine hood after driving on the highway. Here are the reasons: 1. The car is equipped with coolant: The function of coolant is specifically to cool the engine. Its working principle is to use a water pump to increase the pressure of the coolant, allowing it to circulate through the engine's water channels, thereby achieving cooling. 2. The assistance of the cooling system: It cools down heated components to prevent issues. The cooling system mainly consists of a thermostat, cooling fan, and other cooling devices. Because of this system, the engine can effectively dissipate heat.
