| The new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe – M Sport package (02/2014). |
The new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé.
Athletically agile yet highly efficient.
Singapore. BMW Asia presents the new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé. This is the first four-door Coupé in the premium midsize class Coupé that combines the sleek look of a two-door Coupé with the functionality provided by four-doors and expansive spaciousness and boot space.
The BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé will be retailed at Performance Motors Ltd as the BMW 435i Gran Coupé, BMW 428i Gran Coupé and BMW 420i Gran Coupé. The BMW 435i Gran Coupé, is also available with limited units, in manual transmission.
“The BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé takes its cue from a large BMW Coupé, by combining a dynamic and sleek silhouette with additional functionality and more spaciousness in the rear passenger compartment,” said Mr Sethipong Anutarasoti, Corporate Affairs Director of BMW Group Asia. “The elegant and dynamic character of the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé is accompanied by excellent fuel economy and efficiency which is achieved via BMW EfficientDynamics technology and innovations such as BMW TwinPower Turbo technology, lightweight construction concept and honed aerodynamics features.”
Elegant Coupé with saloon car and touring qualities.
At first glance, the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé is an expression of extreme dynamics and refined elegance. With a length of 4,638mm, a width of 1,825mm and a wheelbase of 2,810mm, the four-door variant has the same dimensions as the two-door coupé. The track dimensions of both models – 1,545mm front and 1,594mm rear – are identical and highlight the dynamic potential of the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé.
The silhouette of the four-door model is +12mm higher than the two-door version to offer more headroom and comfort in the rear passenger compartment. At the same time, the short front and rear overhangs, the long wheelbase relative to the vehicle length, and the set-back passenger compartment are typical BMW touches that add to the perfect balance of the body design and the noble appearance of this car, which is derived from the elegant BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé.
The volume of the boot is 480 litres, which is the same capacity provided by the BMW 3 Series Sedan. The back of the rear seat can be folded down in the configuration 60:40 (standard) or 40:20:40 (optional) as desired to increase the load capacity to 1,300 litres. The flat floor and a two-part loading strip made of stainless steel are practical convenience elements that are combined with premium materials. Thus the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé can easily transport a pram or two golf bags without using the folding function.
Exclusive: Two equipment lines and BMW M Sport package.
The premium ambience of the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé results from exclusive colours, high-quality and rich material combinations along with either the Sport Line, Luxury Line or the exclusive M Sport package.
Sport Line: In this equipment line, special body elements are highlighted in black. The subtle B column and the nine slats in the chrome-coloured kidney grille have a high-gloss black finish, whereas the side window elements are finished in matt black. The air intakes in the front spoiler and the Air Breathers in high-gloss black draw attention to the aerodynamic elements of the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé. The sporty look is enhanced even more with 18-inch or 19-inch light-alloy wheels with a dynamic double-spoke design. The rear is also distinguished by dark elements. A black trim strip and a tailpipe embellisher finished in black chrome stand for sporty dynamics. The interior, by contrast, expresses sporty flair with red accents. For example, the inner rings of the dash instruments and contrast stitching on the steering wheel are red. This character can be highlighted even further in the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé with options such as Coral Red leather sport seats, red exterior mirror covers and a red instrument cluster.
Luxury Line: Bright chrome that highlights subtle accents contributes to the exceptionally elegant character of the vehicle. The 11 grille slats with chrome-coloured fronts and the bright dual crossbar in the front apron’s air intakes are very classy touches. The Air Breathers and high-gloss chrome window details add to the appealing look. Light-alloy wheels – 18-inch or 19-inch – with an intricate multi-spoke design reflect pure extravagance. From the rear, the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé can be identified by the tailpipe, horizontal trim strip in the rear apron and the Luxury Line emblem all finished in high-gloss chrome. Chrome accents also harmonise with the luxurious interior. The enclosure surrounding the audio system and air conditioning controls, as well as the circular rings highlighting the instrumentation, are eye-catching touches. Premium leather, finely crafted with precise stitching, with a choice of six classic and elegant colours such as Saddle Brown, underline the exclusivity of the Luxury Line.
M Sport package: The M Sport package comprises of elements that emphasise street performance – for example, aerodynamic features like the large air intake up front, the diffuser insert in the rear bumper and rocker panel trim matching the colour of the vehicle. The characteristic M styling of the 18-inch and 19-inch light-alloy wheels adds to the bold impression. Six exterior colours are offered in the M Sport package, including Carbon Black Metallic and Estoril Blue Metallic, which are exclusive choices for this package of options. Inside the car, features such as M door sill finishers, and an M leather steering wheel shape the sporty yet elegant ambience. The driver and front passenger can settle into the dynamic-looking and elegant sport seats upholstered with five leather choices. Technical features of this package include M Sport suspension and the optional M Sport brakes in contrasting blue paint finish.
BMW TwinPower Turbo technology: Four and six-cylinder petrol engines.
The new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé offers a choice of three powerful, cultivated and efficient engines and can be available either with a six-speed manual transmission or an eight-speed sport automatic transmission.
The six-speed manual transmission easily handles sporty driving styles as well as relaxed cruising. Smooth and precise shifting, along with optimal gear ratios, is typical of BMW automobiles thereby adding more driving fun. Further, the low-friction design of the transmission reduces fuel consumption.
Meanwhile, the eight-speed sport automatic transmission offers fast gear changes and outstanding shift comfort. Extra shift phases keep increases in rpm small between gear changes, which contributes to optimal transmission of engine power in every driving situation. Numerous technological innovations and a remarkably high degree of internal efficiency ensure that fuel consumption and emissions do not rise, even in comparison with a manual transmission.
BMW 435i Gran Coupé: Powered by a six-cylinder in-line 3.0-litre petrol engine, the 435i Gran Coupé can deliver up to 306 hp between 5,800 rpm and 6,400 rpm and generates peak torque of 400 Nm from 1,200 rpm to 5,000 rpm. With an eight-speed sport automatic transmission, the new BMW 435i Gran Coupé can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.2 seconds, with an average fuel consumption of 7.5 litres/100km and CO2 emissions of 174 g/km (as per average EU test cycle).
Meanwhile, with six-speed manual transmission, the new BMW 435i Gran Coupé can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.5 seconds, with an average fuel consumption of 8.3 litres/100km and CO2 emissions of 193 g/km (as per average EU test cycle).
BMW 428i Gran Coupé (AT): Offering superior performance, spirited power development, high-revving characteristics and low weight, the BMW 428i Gran Coupé ensures a perfect balance between dynamic performance and efficiency. Its 2.0-litre engine delivers a maximum power output of 245 hp from 5,000 to 6,500 rpm and generates peak torque of 350 Nm between 1,250 rpm and 4,800 rpm. The new BMW 428i Gran Coupé, with an eight-speed sport automatic transmission, can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.0 seconds, with an average fuel consumption of 6.3 litres/100km and CO2 emissions of 147 g/km (as per average EU test cycle).
BMW 420i Gran Coupé: The BMW 420i is a low-friction 2.0-litre power plant that can generate maximum output of 184 hp from 5,000 rpm 6,250 rpm and peak torque of 270 Nm between 1,250 rpm and 4,500rpm. Equipped with an eight-speed sport automatic transmission, the new BMW 420i Gran Coupé can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.6 seconds, with an average fuel consumption of 6.1 litres/100km and CO2 emissions of 142 g/km (as per average EU test cycle).
Sheer Driving Pleasure: Powered by BMW EfficientDynamics.
The new BMW 4 Series Coupé offers a perfect balance between supreme driving dynamics and outstanding comfort via its finely tuned suspension technology. The new four-door Coupé also fulfils the highest demands in terms of precision and agility, hence offering a brand-typical, active driving experience.
Servotronic as standard, variable sports steering as an option.
The new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé features as standard EPS Electric Power Steering including a Servotronic function. The system provides speed-sensitive power assistance and the clearly defined mapping results in sharper steering feel and feedback. The new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé can be equipped with variable sports steering as an option (standard on BMW 435i Gran Coupé). This uses different steering ratios depending on the amount of lock applied. Only a small amount of steering effort is required for maneuvering, for example, while unbeatable tracking and straightline stability at high speeds are guaranteed.
Intelligent lightweight construction and clever aerodynamics design.
The weight optimisation of all components significantly influences the dynamic performance of the new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé. Intelligent lightweight design, a complex bodywork construction and the innovative strut concept all provide a level of body stiffness that is on par with that of the two-door model variant.
Meanwhile, optimisation measures on the front apron and at the rear as well as the streamlined, smooth-surfaced underbody help the new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé achieve a remarkable aerodynamic drag coefficient (Cd) of 0.27. For example, the BMW Air Curtain technology in the front apron generates a veil of air that reduces turbulence – and therefore drags – around the front wheels. In order to further optimise driving dynamics, the new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé features aerodynamically designed wheel arches and air lips positioned in front of them. The Air Breathers positioned rearwards of the front wheel arches divert some of the air flowing through the wheel arches, thereby reducing air resistance.
BMW ConnectedDrive technology.
BMW ConnectedDrive technology serves as an intelligent network to connect the driver, vehicle and the outside world. Through new assistance systems and information and entertainment features, it has enhanced safety and comfort within the vehicle significantly. Some of these intelligent features include; Navigation System Professional with Touch controller, Head-Up Display in full colour, Driving Assistant Plus, Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go function, Lane Change and Lane Departure Warning systems, full LED headlights with glare-free High Beam Assistant, BMW Parking Assistant system, and BMW ConnectedDrive services and Apps, just to name a few.
The new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé is available for viewing at Performance Motors’ showroom.
