Because who said compact luxury can’t come with extra bite?
Gurugram= – Say goodbye to boring and namaste to bold, as BMW India just dropped its all-new 2 Series Gran Coupé — and it’s anything but shy. With a glowy nose, digital flair, and enough sporty attitude to make gym bros jealous, the second-gen four-door coupé is ready to show India’s premium compact segment how to properly strut.
And yes, it has a shark face. Literally.
Lights, Grille, Action!
You know a car means business when its grille glows on purpose. BMW’s signature “Iconic Glow” kidney grille now makes its dramatic debut in this segment, like a diva demanding spotlight at every traffic signal. Flanked by Adaptive LED headlights that probably see better than you do, the front end is…well, hungry. Very hungry. Like-it-just-saw-an-Audi hungry.
Veganza on the Inside, Velocity on the Outside
Step inside and you’ll be greeted by Veganza upholstery, because even your conscience deserves a plush ride. Add to that the illuminated “Hexacube” trim (don’t worry, it’s not from a Marvel movie) and you get an interior that’s moodier than a teenager denied Wi-Fi.
And yes, there’s a 205-watt Harman Kardon sound system, so your Spotify playlist finally gets the acoustic respect it deserves.
Power Meets Practicality (and a Bit of Show-off)
The 2 Series Gran Coupé may sip petrol from a 1.5L turbo engine producing 156 hp, but it also sprints from 0-100 km/h in just 8.6 seconds. And when you hit the Sport BOOST paddle? Let’s just say things go from Zen mode to Zoom mode faster than your boss changing moods on deadline day.
Also, it’s all built on science: a lighter, stronger body, redesigned suspension, and shock absorbers that might as well have PhDs in comfort engineering.
It’s Not Just Smart. It’s Basically Psychic.
With a Head-Up Display that includes Augmented View, you’ll feel like you’re in a video game, except this one doesn’t come with extra lives. The curved widescreen display with Operating System 9 (because 8 was too basic), voice controls, and Digital Key Plus means your phone is now your key, your assistant, and your vibe checker.
Also, if you thought BMW’s Reversing Assistant just helps you park, you’re wrong. It remembers your last 50 meters. Your friends can’t even remember your birthday.
M Sport as Standard: Because Who Wants Vanilla?
Thankfully, BMW decided that base models are boring and slapped the M Sport package on every variant. You get fancy bumpers, shadow lines, 18-inch Y-spoke alloys, and enough subtle M badging to start your own motorsport team.
Price? Surprisingly Grounded for a Car That’s Anything But
- BMW 218i M Sport – ₹46.90 lakh
- BMW 218i M Sport Pro – ₹48.90 lakh
- Monthly EMI? Starts at ₹35,000 – or roughly what you spend on coffee, fuel, and existential crises each month.
The new 2 Series Gran Coupé is like that one stylish overachiever who’s good-looking, intelligent, and secretly flexes on everyone without trying too hard. Whether you’re parking at a five-star hotel or your in-laws’ cramped driveway, this BMW is ready to make a statement — one Iconic Glow at a time.
So, if you’ve been waiting to upgrade from “daily driver” to “daily dazzler,” it might just be time to leave boring behind… preferably in your new shark-nosed Beemer.
