2022 BMW M440i

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2022 M440i.

Transmission Automatic (S8)

The 2022 BMW M440i, built on BMW’s compact executive platform, is equipped with an eight‑speed automatic (S8) and delivers a combined EPA rating of 26 mpg (23 city/31 highway). Its powertrain and chassis balance sport‑focused dynamics with everyday efficiency, positioning the model as a premium compact coupe in its segment. Within the 20212025 reliability window, the 2022 year falls toward the higher end of the complaint spectrum—still below the peak reported in 2021 but above the low recorded in 2025—signaling a model that is solid but still benefitting from the incremental refinements that have reduced issues in later model years.
