Why didn't BMW choose OLED tail lights for the G20?
Hi Everyone,
First off, I really like the new design of the G20. I think it has a lot of potential and I can't wait to see what some early adopters and forum members have in store as far as tasteful mods. My question is about the OLED tail lights of the M4GTS and M4CS. Coming from an LCI F80, I absolutely love the LED tail lights on my M3. When the OLED lights debuted I loved those even more! Now the G20 is selling, and it's like they scrapped everything they've done with the F3X/8X tail light design. I don't hate the look of the G20 tail lights, but why not incorporate the OLED technology from the previous gen? Just my opinion but it's almost like they went backwards. Either way, just curious if anyone knows why they haven't used or if they are planning to use OLEDs. Maybe in an LCI update? Thanks for reading. Chris

well the m4 gts and m4 cs are really expensive cars, and the oled taillights are probably really expensive. I know its not how much it actually costs bmw but the parts are like $9000 for just the lights if you want them. I'd guess if it was even $1000 more expensive, or they can't make enough of them for the mass market model it wouldn't make sense at all for almost anyone buying a car not paying m4 gts level prices

Wait for LCI. BMW has done it before on e46 and e90 and F30- better tail lights on LCI
I would also guess based on previous models BMW will fix that ugly front grill with LCI |

I think you're right. Maybe they will tweak a few things for the LCI update. Maybe they will roll out the M3 and M3 competition at the same time unlike the F8X. If they do that maybe i'll wait a year for an LCI ZCP.
