Let’s break it down.
New Design, Familiar DNA
The new BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe 2025 gets subtle but effective design changes.You’ll notice the redesigned front with sharper LED headlights, a glowing grille outline, and sporty dual-tone 18-inch wheels that give it a fresh, aggressive edge. At 4,546mm long and with a sporty stance, it still looks premium but is easier to handle in tight city spaces.
Colours available are Black Sapphire, Brooklyn Grey Metallic, M Portimao Blue and Alpine White – all classic BMW.
Engine & Drive
Under the hood, BMW has dropped in a compact 1.5L 3-cylinder turbo petrol engine that delivers a lively 156 bhp and 230 Nm of torque – tuned more for smooth everyday driving than aggressive performance.

Fuel efficiency? Claimed at 16.35 kmpl (ARAI) which is decent for a luxury car.
