Pros Cons of BMW M440i

Pros

  • Punchy 3.0-litre six-cylinder engine
  • The fabric soft-top roof opens quickly
  • Comfort mode suspension is highly compliant
  • Rear-biased all-wheel drive

Cons

  • Front sports seats miss out on ventilation
  • The luggage area becomes 300 litres with the roof down
  • The rear seats provide very tight legroom
  • Screen-heavy controls

Verdict

The BMW M440i Convertible is not built to compete for pure practicality or fuel economy numbers. Instead, it is a vehicle that gives serious driving pleasure and has a special sense of occasion. It offers you the incredible exhaust note and fast acceleration of a serious performance car, but keeps the ride smooth enough for your daily commute. While the tight rear seats and menu-heavy dashboard screens are small annoyances, they don't dampen the core experience.

Seshan summarises,

“You've got a fantastic straight-six, strong performance, and a chassis that's engaging, but also comfortable enough to live with.”
