BMW’s future 4-Series line-up will include a coupe and a convertible
version, as well as their M4 variants, but the lineup still isn’t
complete. BMW is planning on bringing out a competitor for models like
the Audi A5 Sportback and the upcoming Mercedes CLA. Their solution? A 4-Series Gran Coupe that will follow in the path of the recently released 6-Series Gran Coupe.
The
BMW 4-Series Gran Coupe will be based on the upcoming 4-Series Coupe,
but will get two more doors, a slightly longer wheelbase, and a set of
usable rear seats. Its exterior design will be similar to the one found
in the 3-Series, but will add gaping air intakes and smooth aluminum style inserts for a more upmarket feel.
Under
the hood, BMW will be placing the same engines found in the coupe
version. This means there will be a choice of four engines - two petrol
and two diesel - with the most powerful version being the 435i with an
output of 306 HP. BMW will also be offering an M4 Gran Coupe model that
will be powered by a 450 HP six-cylinder turbo engine.
Expect to see the new BMW 4-Series Gran Coupe launched in 2013.
