The 4 Series Gran Coupe is a BMW sedan for those who don't want a stodgy, humdrum four-door. A sort of mishmash of the 3 Series sedan and the 4 Series coupe, the Gran Coupe has four doors but a tapering coupe-like roofline. It's also a hatchback with fold-down split rear seats, which further enhance utility relative to a conventional sedan. Function and fashion — imagine that. For 2024, BMW updated the 4 Series' interior with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a larger 14.9-inch center touchscreen housed behind a single curved display.

zzdcar spotlight: Mix-and-match drivetrains
When it was introduced for 2022, the 4 Series Gran Coupe was available with only two powertrain combinations: a four-cylinder engine with rear-wheel drive or a six-cylinder engine with all-wheel drive. Partway through the 2023 model year, BMW made rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive available with both engines, accommodating a wider swath of potential buyers and transforming the 4 Series Gran Coupe into one of the most versatile and well-equipped four-door luxury cars available.
Competitors to consider
The Audi A5 Sportback (and sportier S5 Sportback) is a four-door luxury hatchback that's similar in concept to the 4 Series Gran Coupe and worth checking out. Otherwise, you'll likely end up cross-shopping against traditional luxury sedans such as the Acura TLX, BMW 3 Series, Genesis G70, Lexus IS and Mercedes-Benz C-Class.

Performance
8.0/10How does the 4 Series Gran Coupe drive? We tested the 430i version, which is the base version of the 4 Series Gran Coupe. At our test track, it sprinted from 0 to 60 mph in 6.2 seconds, which is an average time for a small luxury car with a base engine. For more fun and personality, you should definitely get the six-cylinder engine. Otherwise, the transmission shifts smoothly and quickly, and pulling away from stops and driving at low speed is comfortable and easy. Around turns, the 4 Series Gran Coupe is stable and secure. Emergency braking power is also impressive, but the brakes are grabby at low speeds and require a delicate foot to slow smoothly.
Comfort
8.0/10How comfortable is the 4 Series Gran Coupe? Despite looking like a low-slung sport sedan, the 4 Series Gran Coupe is surprisingly comfortable. The optional adaptive suspension dampers help the car ride comfortably in all drive modes, especially Comfort mode. It's also quiet and does a commendable job of insulating passengers from the outside world. The seats have firm padding, suggesting the seats will require a lengthy break-in period before they become truly comfortable, but multiple adjustments allow you to find an ideal sitting position.
