For 2021, the BMW 6 Series GT has received a mid-life makeover. The bulk of the visual changes are restricted to the front end. It gets a new set of headlamps with angular L-shape LED DRLs accompanied by BMW’s Laserlight lighting setup in this range-topping M Sport trim. The grille seems a tad bigger and the bumper is new as well. The rest of the car remains unchanged, however, there a few new exterior colour options on offer.

Inside, the dashboard greets you with a familiar layout but the choice of colour for the upholstery is different from the outgoing model’s. The most prominent changes here come in the form of a new 12.3-inch touchscreen display and a new 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster. Those seated in the back now get USB Type-C ports. The BMW 6 Series GT’s USP is its rear seat offering generous amounts of legroom, knee room and headroom with electric recline function, electrically operable sun blinds and individual screens on hand to pamper those seated in the back. 6 GT’s four-zone climate control allows all four occupants to set the temperature as per their liking and there’s also a 16-speaker Harman Kardon audio setup serving up an impressive aural experience.
