Next Gen 440i Gran Coupe

Bobby P · 05-23-2018, 04:04 PM

Hi All,

Do anyone know or can speculate when we can expect the next gen 440i Gran Coupe to be released? I think the next gen 6 cylinder will be labelled as an M440i GC considering it would have ~380HP, just looking at what time frame this car would be out?

Cheers

I would really love to know more on this as well.. I currently daily driver a 428I Gran Coupe and am trying to figure out the next step I should take from here.

According to a very reliable source:

August 2018
-- EOP for F34 and F36 has been moved to 06/21. The former is likely to compensate for the cancellation of G24 and the latter should be seen as evidence of the next 4GC needing extra development time so it can become a more interesting (unusual?) car than its predecessor.

So production of the current generation 4-series Gran Coupe will continue until June 2021. Still a long time to wait for the next generation GC. Great for me, since I am getting a very negative vibe from BMW's new design language in the current new releases (all the German companies seem to be trying to out-baroque the Japanese). A new Last-of-the-Mohicans F36 is perfect timing for me.
