errrr..
4 series with 4 doors is a 3 series..
2 series with 4 doors is a 1 series..

sometimes we can identify it is a M car if they have double the quantity of normal car exhaust pipe
like 5 series with 2 pipes.. M5 got 4 pipes..

BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe

Top is 4 door 4 series. Bottom 4 door 3 series.

BMW most probably might introduce 4 door 2 series in the future for the sake of filling every single niche market.

Edit.

1 series sedan sypshot

Doubt it is going to be anything close to the M3 and M4. Because it looks as though it will be an uptuned N55HP engine. Probably around 380 HP and 100kg lighter the regular 2 series (if they use the liberal amount of CFP they used in the other Ms)

3 series, 4 series coupe & gran coupe wheelbase are exactly the same.

overall dimension, 4 series gran coupe is wider, longer & lower than 3 series.

Note that 4 series has smaller side mirrors.

BMW pentipu one

all M3, M5, M2 and bla bla bla

but the ultimate and bestest car they ever made recently is named 1-M

very odd numbering for the bestest bavaria can offer today

and it's sold out. good luck finding one. reportedly, there is only 2 units in malaysia. it's that rare.
*
The reason why that small coupe used 1-M instead of M1 is M1 is actually a BMW super car that was made in the 80s.

The road version:

And this car even have its own racing league for 2 years called BMW M1 Procar Championship.

BMW is rumored to be developing the next M1 super car with Toyota while Toyota is developing the next Supra with the same platform.

1)x6 isnt very good.in fact,almost all x bmw are shit

2)they have the answer,but nowhere close.

the best small hot saloon is m3.and always is

the best big hot saloon is m5.and always is

the 1 series is one of the hot hatch,cuz its RWD.

the m235 series is probably the best small car nowadays (some sources even take it as better than the hot new subaru)

merc is like audi,or anybody else.they have the answer,but nowhere near to rival bmw. they keep trying,but havent succeeded



3)thats the point

does apple stuff like iphone affordable?

no.

does it have latest tech?

no

so its just like AM
