The BMW M440i Convertible combines luxury and performance with a surprisingly usable design for everyday driving in India. Owning a convertible in India is more of an indulgence than any other type of car.
The BMW M440i Convertible features a 3.0-litre in-line six turbo engine producing 369bhp and 500Nm of torque. It can accelerate from 0-100km/h in 4.9 seconds according to BMW, but tests clocked it at 4.43 seconds.
The convertible has a folding fabric roof that opens or closes in 18 seconds at speeds up to 50km/h. It boasts a boot capacity of 385 litres, which is 10 litres larger than the sedan’s. The car weighs 1,890kg.
The M440i Convertible features adaptive sports suspension for improved ride quality. This enhances its usability as a daily driver while still delivering performance akin to the BMW M4 Competition.
It also includes a 12-speaker Harman Kardon sound system and wireless charging. “It’s a surprisingly usable car, despite the body style not being ideal for India,” an analyst remarked.
Some critics noted, “If you absolutely must nitpick, slightly larger wheels would’ve filled the arches better.” Observers agree that the M440i has its own personality, distinguishing it from other models.
This model is not just about speed; it’s about delivering an experience. “This isn’t a point-and-shoot scalpel like the M340i,” one reviewer stated.
As interest grows, more potential buyers are expected to explore this blend of luxury and performance in convertible cars.
