[Asia Economy Reporter Suyeon Woo] BMW has challenged the domestic compact coupe market with the 'New 2 Series Gran Coupe,' which combines space and fuel efficiency. The New 220d Gran Coupe is BMW's first 4-door coupe model in the compact segment, featuring sporty design and practicality.


The New 220d Gran Coupe, equipped with a 4-cylinder diesel engine, is available in two trims: Advantage and Luxury. The prices are set at 44.9 million KRW for the Advantage and 47.6 million KRW for the Luxury.


The new 2 Series Gran Coupe maintains the low and wide body proportions characteristic of coupes while significantly improving space utilization compared to the previous model. Rear legroom has been increased by 33mm, and seat height raised by 12mm for easier entry and exit. The trunk capacity has also increased by 40 liters to a base of 430 liters compared to the previous 2-door model.


The TwinPower Turbo 4-cylinder diesel engine in the New 220d boasts an excellent combined fuel efficiency of 13.9 km/l. This engine delivers a maximum output of 190 horsepower and peak torque of 40.79 kgf·m, paired with the latest 8-speed Steptronic automatic transmission for agile and efficient driving.


BMW aims to capture the hearts of the millennial generation by emphasizing the New 220d Gran Coupe's dynamic and sporty design and various advanced convenience features. The front design features a new kidney grille finished in aluminum satin and full LED headlights shaped like four eyes, creating a strong impression. The rear highlights LED rear lights and a black high-gloss character line connecting them, giving the appearance of a wider vehicle width.
