BMW Gran Coupe To Challenge The Mercedes CLS

BMW product planners have taken the classy looking 6-Series and stretched it to create a 4-door coupe to rival the current crop of European 4-door coupes. This is the BMW 6-Series Gran Coupe. Its a new 4-door, 4+1 seat addition to the 6-Series line that successfully combines the stunning proportions, design and driving dynamics of the 6-Series Coupe with interior room and amenities for up to five passengers.

Under the hood there will be a 315bhp TwinPower Turbo 6-cylinder good for a 5.4sec 0-100km/h dash and in the later part of 2012 a 445bhp TwinPower Turbo V-8 will be added to power which will be good for a 0-100km/h dash in 4.6secs. In 2013 BMW will release a 650i Gran Coupe and the all-wheel drive BMW 650i xDrive. A new 8-speed gearbox will be added to the range.

Sporting a length of 197 inches (5,007 mm) and wheelbase of 116.8 inches (2,968 mm), the Gran Coupe is 4.4 inches (111 mm) longer than its 2-door coupe sibling. A significant part of this extra length has been used to enhance seating comfort for the rear passengers.

The BMW 6-Series Gran Coupe is also 74.6 inches (1,894 mm) wide and stands 54.8 inches (1,392 mm) in height. For comparison purposes, the Gran Coupe is 4.0 inches (102mm) longer, 1.3 inches (34mm) wider and 2.8 inches (72mm) lower than the BMW 550i.

The BMW 6-Series Gran Coupe, in keeping with the tradition of the 6-Series Coupe, offers a unique combination of top-class sporting dynamics, stunning design, luxurious touring comfort and a 16.24 cu. ft (460-liter) DIN luggage compartment – now for four passengers. The BMW 6-Series Gran Coupe’s signature driving experience is complimented by a range of innovative driver assistance systems and BMW ConnectedDrive infotainment features. The new car therefore meets the highest expectations of driving pleasure and style in a large, premium 4-seat sports coupe.
