The 2 Series Gran Coupe sedan will be built on the front-wheel-drive UKL architecture, which is already used in the X1, X2 and the new 1 Series models. The company states that the new model will combine expressive design, dynamic characteristics and modern digital solutions.

The new BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe will become an alternative to classic sedans and will be aimed at buyers who need a compact car with "refined style".
