BMW has expanded the 2 Series line-up with a newcomer designed to challenge the Mercedes CLA head-on.
Called the 2 Series Gran Coupé, its arrival means the 2 Series family is the most diverse range in the BMW fold. The Gran Coupé is a compact four-door and it lines up alongside the two-door Coupé and Convertible models, as well as the Active Tourer and Gran Tourer MPVs. It’s also a junior to the new 8 Series Gran Coupé, and goes on sale next March, with prices starting from £25,000.
