New BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe pricing and specs

Entry point to BMW’s mid-size four-door coupe climbs $5000 with second generation due late 2021

BMW Australia has announced local pricing and specs for the 2022 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe that arrives in second-generation guise in the final quarter of this year, with the entry-level 420i opening proceedings at $75,900 plus on-road costs.

That’s $5000 more than the previous equivalent model, while the mid-series 430i is set at $83,900 plus ORCs – $1400 higher than before.

The previous 440i that retailed for $103,200 plus ORCs has been replaced by the new all-wheel drive and M-badged M440i xDrive that is a more expensive proposition at $115,900 plus ORCs.

Revealed just last month in Europe, the new 4GC is longer, wider and taller than the original and the Bavarian car-maker is promising improved handling, improved design and a lift in the quality of interior trim materials.

As before, the rear-drive 420i uses a 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine – now rated at 135kW/300Nm – while the 430i has a higher-turned version at 190kW/400Nm.

The all-paw M440i xDrive uses a 3.0-litre inline six-cylinder engine good for 285kW/500Nm.

An eight-speed Steptronic Sport automatic transmission with shift paddles is fitted across the range, and all powertrains come with mild-hybrid assistance.

The headline standard equipment for the 420i Gran Coupe includes 19-inch M light alloy wheels (with run-flat tyres), M Sport suspension, M Sport styling package, LED headlights, Alcantara sports seats, ambient interior lighting, a head-up display, wireless phone charging, Live Cockpit Professional and more.

Driver assist tech in the 420i comes courtesy of BMW’s Driving Assistant pack, which brings autonomous emergency braking (AEB), adaptive cruise control, lane assist and rear cross traffic alert.

The 430i Gran Coupe adds M Sport brakes, adaptive M suspension, leather ‘Vernasca’ trim, Parking Assistant Plus and the BMW Comfort Access system.

Key features on the flagship M440i Gran Coupe includes 19-inch Cerium Grey M alloys, BMW Laserlight, an M Sport differential, electric glass roof and a premium Harman Kardon sound system.

Both the 430i and M440i xDrive will carry BMW’s newer Driving Assistant Professional safety pack, which brings semi-autonomous driving functionality including a stop-and-go feature for the adaptive cruise control, steering and lane control assistant, front cross traffic alert and more.

Externally, the M440i is also differentiated by a range of Cerium Grey touches, including on the kidney grille and mirror caps, as well as the elongated rectangular exhaust tips.

Meanwhile, every example of the new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe will feature new flush-fitting door handles and, on the inside, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and 10.25-inch central touch-screen that comes with digital radio and full smartphone mirroring functionality.

Optional bundles for the 420i and 430i include a $5800 Visibility Package, which adds metallic paint, a glass roof, Laserlight headlights and high beam assist, while a Comfort Package brings seat heating, lumbar support, a heated steering wheel and more (where not offered standard) for $2400 (420i), $1500 (430i) or $1300 (M440i).

Other options include a Driver’s Assistant Package, M Sport Plus Package and Executive Package.

BMW says all 4 Series Gran Coupe models will be built under a flexible manufacturing process at BMW’s Munich plant on the same line as the electric 2022 BMW i4, which is due to launch in the first quarter of next year.

There’s still no sign yet of an M4 Gran Coupe that’ll run alongside the new M3 sedan and M4 coupe – and, like its siblings, should also be available with all-wheel drive for the first time.

How much does the 2022 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe cost?
420i – $75,900 (+$5000)
430i – $83,900 (+$1400)
M440i xDrive – $115,900 (new)
