The BMW 4-Series is Getting a Soft Top!

March 25, 2020 By Nadeem Muaddi

The Hog Ring - The BMW 4-Series is Getting a Soft Top

The BMW 4-Series is undergoing some serious changes, including an all-new convertible soft top.

The current model features a retractable hard top that folds away in just 20 seconds. It’s gorgeous, but heavy and takes up a lot of trunk room.

However, spy shots indicate that the newly redesigned BMW 4-Series will replace its retractable hard top with a soft top.

Of course, for trim shops, it’s always huge news when an automaker introduces a new soft top convertible. It means more work opportunities (and more money)!

Car Scoops, which took the spy shots, says the vehicle’s testing phase is near complete — so we can expect the new Bimmer to hit dealer lots later this year or early next year.
