BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe second-generation launched in India at Rs 46.90 lakh; bookings now open

BMW has launched the second-generation 2 Series Gran Coupe in India, with prices starting at Rs 46.90 lakh (ex-showroom). The updated entry-level luxury sedan is now available for booking and comes in two variants – M Sport and M Sport Pro, the latter priced at Rs 2 lakh more.

This new-generation model sees a major change under the hood, as it ditches the earlier 2.0-litre petrol and diesel engines for a smaller 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbo-petrol engine, marking a clear shift in the powertrain lineup.

The latest 2 Series Gran Coupe carries forward BMW’s signature sporty styling, now with a more aggressive twist. The front fascia features a wide illuminated kidney grille finished in black, flanked by sleek LED headlamps and large air intakes. On the sides, its sloping coupe-like roofline, frameless doors, and 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels enhance its dynamic appeal.

At the rear, the sedan gets wraparound LED taillights, a clean boot design, and a sculpted bumper with black inserts and red reflectors. It is available in four exterior shades: Alpine White, Black Sapphire, Brooklyn Grey, and Portimao Blue.

Premium interiors with dual themes

Inside, the cabin feels plush and modern, offered in two interior themes: Oyster (beige) and Mocha. The layout is clean, with a curved screen housing the 10.7-inch touchscreen infotainment system and 10.24-inch digital driver display in a single unit.

Minimal physical buttons, silver inserts, and ambient lighting add to the luxury quotient. Rear passengers get three headrests, a centre armrest with cupholders, and rear AC vents for enhanced comfort.

Feature-loaded and safer than before

The new 2 Series Gran Coupe comes equipped with several premium features:

• Harman Kardon 12-speaker sound system
• Head-up display
• Wireless phone charger
• Dual-zone climate control
• Cruise control
• Interior camera
• BMW Digital Key

On the safety front, the sedan includes multiple airbags, electronic stability control, rear camera, dashcam, ISOFIX mounts, TPMS, and ADAS features for added protection.

Engine & performance

Powering the new-gen model is a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine, a noticeable downgrade from the 2.0-litre units in the previous version. While BMW hasn't revealed full output figures, this change points toward a more efficiency-focused direction for the entry-level luxury sedan.

With the second-generation 2 Series Gran Coupe, BMW aims to attract first-time luxury car buyers while retaining its performance DNA and style quotient in a more compact and city-friendly package.
