BMW has unveild its 2 Series Gran Coupe. It is a premium compact four door that fills the smallest of gaps between the 1 Series and the 3 Series, but it does so in style. The top of the range two series Gran Coupe will be the M235i xDrive. It will come equipped with a 2 liter four-cylinder mated with an 8-speed automatic gearbox producing 228hp and 350nm of torque, allowing it to reach 100kmh in under 5 seconds.
The US versions will only be available in xDrive while Europe will eventually be able to get a front wheel drive version. This version of xDrive is not the ordinary xDrive system as it uses tech from the i3, most importantly the near-actuator wheel slip limitation system. If necessary it will lightly brake the inner wheels to help improve grip.
The 2 series Gran Coupe is a four door coup with styling elements such as flared haunches, sloping roof line and an upscale interior. The 2 Series Gran Coupe is aimed at the Mercedes CLA and the A3 sedan.
