The new BMW M440i XDrive can't be missed... mainly because of it's controversial, new, "beaver tooth" nose. Personally, we think it's one of the most hideous designs in modern memory. There must be some people who like it, but we can't find any. Underneath the hood is a very effective, 382 HP Turbo-six with a 48v mild hybrid filling the torque gaps. Thankfully, the faster you go, the less you notice the hybrid system, but you simply cannot drive fast enough to forget how it looks.
BMW of North America provided the vehicle, insurance, and a tank of fuel for this review.

"This was the ultimate driving machine like 10 years ago, now it's like the ultimate machine for people that would rather do basically anything besides drive" sums up BMW's course so accurately
The people in charge of designing this car need to be blackballed from the automotive industry.
Remember when the massive grill was just a meme?
Great title lol
Quite possibly the worst looking modern day production sports coupe. Def the worst looking BMW design language so far. BMW gotta be ashamed at this point
Gee, it's just this simple. Those bashing the 2021 M440i are entitled to exercise their 1st Amendment Rights. Personally, I really like the car and purchased the rear wheel drive convertible. After 7 months i can say it has exceeded all my expectations. To me, what critics say means absolutely nothing because they wouldn't purchase the car anyway. Btw, I love the front grill design and it has gotten numerous unsolicited compliments. To each their own - free to choose.
They changed the iconic line along the waist. I wouldn't guess it's a BMW from the side.
I’m a huge BMW fan. They have lost me with this model..
They lost me at 4000 pounds.
Anyone who spends 70k on this has lost their mind.
"If you need assistance staying in a lane, why do you have a license?"
BMW: "What if we add weight and make it ugly as sin?"
“If you need assistance staying in the lane, why do you have a license?!”
The complaints about Chris Bangle's BMWs seems like such a minor footnote in car design these days...
You should have censored the walkaround. ;-)
It is ugly so I bought an M340i instead. You get everything good about the M440, small grilles and 4 doors.
Wow, that's bad. Like, ridiculously bad looking.
Side profile looks like a goddamn 2003 Honda Accord coupe. This thing has no redeeming angles lmao
Imagine being this car's designer and literally everyone in the automotive world thinks it sucks. How often does that happen?!
Not only is the front end styling... as it is, but they managed to mess up the rear quarter panel for a coupe too. It's got that massive gap there, CTS-V coupe esque, because the rear window doesn't go down far enough. It makes the rear look large and blank above the rear tires and just... ooph.
