Responsible for the dynamic sprints of the BMW M240i Convertible is the optional 8-speed Steptronic Sport transmission. The Launch Control it contains ensures that accelerations from 0 to 100 km/h are possible in only 4.7 seconds (4.6 seconds with BMW xDrive). Simply press the DSC button, set the selector lever to position “S”, briefly depress the brake and kick down the accelerator pedal – releasing the brake now will teach you precisely what thrust means.

In order to translate the outstanding engine performance into impressive and authoritative driving dynamics, springs and stabilisers have been precisely adjusted to the high-torque 6-cylinder engine. Specific elasto-kinematics for the front axle guarantee impressive driving moments. Even more agility is achieved by the specially tuned M sport suspension lowered by 10 millimetres and the variable sport steering including Servotronic.

The optional four-wheel drive system BMW xDrive flexibly distributes the drive force of the BMW M240i xDrive Convertible between the axles and offers the best traction even under difficult road conditions. No matter what the road surface, the convertible precisely follows every direction change with noticeably less steering corrections. For the M performance typical driving dynamics, the system was especially designed to emphasise the real wheels.

The 18'' M light alloy Double-spoke 436 M wheels at the front are brought to a resolute halt by the four-disc fixed-calliper disc brakes made of aluminium. A two-piston variant is used on the rear axle. Thanks to the internal ventilation, the brakes reliably grip even under high thermal loads. This tremendous braking performance is immediately recognisable by the distinctive blue brake callipers with the M logo.
