Our new race car – the BMW M4 GT4

Our team has already had the opportunity to test the 550 hp BMW M4 GT4, which is equipped with high-end aerodynamic parts, in Portimao (Portugal). The drivers were impressed by the overall performance of the vehicle. Above all, however, they were impressed by the performance of the BILSTEIN EVO R Motorsport suspension, which was tuned on our state-of-the-art 7-post test rig at the Nürburgring.
