Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2024 M4.
The 2024 BMW M4 routes power through an S8 automatic transmission while returning EPA fuel economy figures of 16 city, 23 highway, and 19 combined mpg. The vehicle's current reliability profile shows zero recalls and just two owner complaints, both focused on the Back Over Prevention system. This positions the 2024 model near the platform's historic low of a single complaint in 2020, representing a stark contrast to the 21 complaints logged in 2016 and confirming that the M4 has matured into a highly stable vehicle for researchers to evaluate.

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.
The federal record for the BMW M4 shows a clear arc: the first two model years (2015–2016) generated the highest complaint counts (12 and 21) and multiple recalls, while from 2017 onward complaints dropped sharply and remained at or below five per year. The 2024 model year falls well into this mature, low-complaint phase, with only two complaints reported so far (both for driver-assistance systems, not powertrain or safety-critical issues) and zero crash or fire incidents. Recalls for the 2024 model are not yet listed in the data, but the preceding 2022 year had zero recalls, continuing the trend of decreasing recall activity after the 2020–2021 period. The data does not specify root causes for the two 2024 complaints, but the overall pattern suggests that later production years of each generation benefit from accumulated fixes. **Takeaway: The 2024 BMW M4 is a strong buy within the model’s lifecycle, as it sits at the low end of the complaint and recall trend, indicating improved reliability over earlier years.**
