Were You Sure The New BMW M4 Competition Could Pass The Moose Test?

The moose test is regarded as one of the most difficult for any vehicle. It enables us to provide an objective assessment of the vehicle's handling based on its behavior and the speed at which it travels the designated route. The Spanish newspaper km77.com, which specializes in the moose test, regularly thrills us.
BMW M4 Competition Coupe, which has surprised an entire industry with its quirky look and outstanding performance, is the most recent car to be put to the test.
The first attempt was made at 78 km/h with the ESC turned on. The German vehicle proved difficult to operate at this speed, according to the testers, owing to oversteer. The driver made a point of expressing his dissatisfaction with the steering wheel's response to his directions.
BMW M4, on the other hand, functioned admirably at 76 km/h, with no issues. At a speed of 77 km/h, one that is considered the benchmark for this type of test, the M4 Competition made it through by just touching a cone at the end of the course, but again skidding. The automobile was eventually driven to a top speed of 79 km/h, at which point it became a complete disaster.
Finally, the Spanish writers criticized the Bavarian performance model for having underwhelming handling for a sports car. In contrast, the Ford Puma ST small SUV passes the moose test at 81 km/h, the Porsche Taycan Turbo S at 78 km/h, and the Kia Stinger at 82 km/h.
