Tires on BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe (БМВ)

The BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe was first introduced in 2019. It was a compact 4-door sedan with a coupe-like silhouette, created to fill the gap in the model range that emerged after the appearance of the 1st series. The novelty became a kind of "bridge" between it and the larger representatives of the 3rd series. The target audience was young people, who were offered a balance between sporty styling and comfort, functionality in everyday use.

First Generation — New Architecture for Bavarian "Compacts"

The debut generation with the F44 index was created on a modular FAAR platform, the layout of which differed significantly from its predecessors. Here, front-wheel drive was present, which allowed for a significant increase in cabin space while maintaining compact dimensions. The chassis was almost entirely borrowed from the 1-series hatchback — "MacPherson" at the front and "multi-link" at the rear. However, the top versions received reinforced suspension elements in a package with a four-wheel drive system.

The engine range consisted of two petrol and two diesel engines with a volume of 1.5 and 2 liters, available in different boost options. Moreover, the 1.5-liter power units had an in-line 3-cylinder layout. The most powerful version was the 2-liter engine with the M235i xDrive index, developing over 300 horsepower and accelerating to 100 km/h in less than 5 seconds.

Among other features of the sedan, it is worth noting the body design, which stands out for its extremely low air resistance. In the top versions, it was supplemented with active elements in the radiator grille. Common to all trim levels was a low noise level when driving at high speed.

Second Generation — Digital Technologies

In 2024, the second-generation sedan was released. Compared to its predecessor, it stood out for its more expressive body design with enlarged "nostrils" in the radiator grille, redesigned optics, and more pronounced side panel surfaces. This gave the sedan a stylistic similarity to the current models of the German brand.

More innovations were found in the cabin. The front panel received a combined digital Curved Display, which combines the instrument panel and multimedia system. Management is carried out through the updated iDrive system using voice and touch screen. The list of "electronic" equipment in the "base" has significantly expanded — adaptive "cruise", lane keeping system, automatic braking, and extended parking functions. Thanks to this, the compact sedan has approached the level of technology of more expensive models of the brand.

The engine range has changed due to the appearance of modernized engines. The choice between manual and automatic transmission has disappeared. Now all power units are combined exclusively with a 7-speed robotic gearbox with two clutches. The next important innovation was the appearance in the lineup of versions with hybrid power plants, where an electric "add-on" was present in the form of a 48-volt starter-generator, reducing fuel consumption.

Despite these changes, the sedan still stood out for its "signature" chassis and steering settings, providing a sufficiently emotional behavior during dynamic driving. The most interesting in this regard were the versions with the xDrive all-wheel-drive system. The electronically controlled clutch redistributes torque between the axles, increasing stability on wet surfaces and during active driving. It is worth noting the central console, which is deployed towards the driver's seat.

Positioning Among Competitors

In its segment, this sedan competes with several models from European brands. However, it stands out from them with a more "sporty" concept. Most "classmates" focus on smooth ride and comfort in everyday use. The Bavarian brand offered a model with more aggressive suspension settings, especially in the most powerful versions with all-wheel drive, which is organically combined with a coupe-like body silhouette. Also, a strong point of the sedan is its equipment. The modern multimedia system, digital instrument panel, and extended set of electronic assistants make the model one of the most technologically advanced in its class.

The factory configuration provides for the use of wheels with a diameter of 17 to 19 inches with tires in the size of 205/55, 225/45, and 235/35. Such parameters guarantee a balance between sporty handling and comfort on everyday routes. In the online store "Mosavtoshina" you can always find such kits, which are covered by a long warranty.
