The all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé

The all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé boasts extraordinary presence and breathtaking design with sporty and elongated lines and many M-specific characteristics. The front is dominated by large air inlets, Adaptive LED Headlights and the redesigned double-slat M kidney grille in chrome with M6 badge. The low roofline flowing smoothly into the rear, the swage line and side windows extending well into the C-pillars accentuate the dynamically stretched silhouette. The aerodynamically optimised exterior mirrors and exclusive 20-inch M light-alloy wheels in double-spoke design underline the car’s distinctive appearance, as does another M signature – twin exhaust tailpipes positioned on the outer edges of the rear apron. The diffuser in the rear apron, crafted from carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP), optimises under-body airflow.
 
The interior of the all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé presents a compelling combination of elegance and uncompromising driver-orientated ergonomics. The latest M cockpit technology has striking features such as the multifunction M leather steering wheel; the M centre console, which is inclined slightly towards the driver, has controls for different M driving dynamics systems and the instrument cluster display. Standard M seats with electric adjustment already promise optimum comfort, while M multifunction active seats with climate control are available on request.
 
Another highlight of the all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé is the roof, made of carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP), which is a unique feature in this segment. The extremely lightweight design provides superior torsional stiffness and reduces weight by 25 kilogrammes compared to that of a conventional glass sunroof. The all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé provides the kind of spaciousness that is far from the usual coupé fare. A through-loading hatch and 60:40-split folding rear seatback further provide an excellent everyday usability.
 

The M TwinPower Turbo eight-cylinder petrol engine in the all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé is the most powerful of all the standard BMW engines and is distinguished by its enormous performance, outstanding power delivery, running smoothness and free-revving character. The 4.4-litre V8 engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology combines two TwinScroll turbochargers with Valvetronic, Double-VANOS and High Precision Injection to develop an output of 412 kW/560 hp and an impressive torque of 680 Nm. The sprint from 0 to 100 km/hr takes 4.2 seconds and top speed is 250 km/h.
 
The seven-speed M Double Clutch transmission with Drivelogic ensures fast gearshifts without loss of power. Drivelogic also includes adjustable shift characteristics, a Low Speed Assistance system with a crawl function for increased comfort in stop-and-go traffic, a Launch Control system and an automatic “P” function. Motor sport-style shift paddles directly on the steering wheel allow the driver to engage all seven gears without having to lift off the accelerator.
 
The all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé with state-of-the-art safety features provides maximum support in any situation with six air bags, Active M Differential, M Dynamic Damper Control, M Dynamic mode, M Compound Brakes, Active Protection with Attention Assist and Active headrests (front).
 
The all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé also features two M Drive buttons on the steering wheel for pre-programmed configurations for either a sporty or a comfortable drive.
 
With BMW EfficientDynamics, the all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé sets benchmark when it comes to the performance-to-fuel-consumption ratio equipped with a comprehensive technology package including features such as Intelligent Lightweight Construction, Automatic Start/Stop function, Brake Energy Regeneration, Electric Power Steering, 50:50 Weight Distribution and many other innovative technologies.
 
The all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé has a plethora of BMW ConnectedDrive driver assist systems and services. These include the next generation of BMW iDrive (the on-board Driver Information System) with touch controller, BMW Navigation Professional (integrated Global Positioning System – GPS) with 10.2 inch colour display with 3D maps, full-colour BMW Head-Up Display with M-specific views, Connectivity through Bluetooth and USB devices, high-end Surround Sound system from Bang & Olufsen and BMW Apps. Park Distance Control (PDC) rear and front along with rear view camera come as standard features in the all-new BMW M6 Gran Coupé.
