BMW’S 2 Series Gran Coupe is the latest interpretation of Munich’s ‘four-door coupe’ concept that began with the 5 Series Gran Turismo in 2009.
Despite the badge, it shares architecture and powertrains with the new 1 Series hatchback rather than the rear-drive, two-door 2 Series Coupe. However, BMW insists this isn’t a 1 Series sedan, even though both models have the same 2670mm wheelbase and virtually identical cabin.
