The four-door
BMW M6 Gran Coupe is the most powerful and luxurious car yet from the
high-performance 'M' brand. It’s the second most expensive BMW in the range,
sitting only behind the i8 supercar – Big
Motoring World review
why this gem is worth every penny.
Power
The Gran Coupe
shares the same 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine seen in the M6 Convertible and
Coupe models, but it promises to be even faster thanks to neat weight-saving
measures. It’s equipped with a revised Competition Pack which takes the power
up to a monstrous 592bhp, while torque is up to a cool 700NM. The 0-62mph
sprint takes just a mere 4.2 seconds.
On the road
One of the
Gran Coupe’s biggest strengths is how it handles on the road. The Active M
Differential gives it superb agility and outstanding traction. It shuffles
torque across the rear axle to the wheel which has the most grip, helping the
car place its 592bhp and massive 7000Nm of torque on to the road.
Exterior styling
The M6 Gran
Coupe represents the best of the brand’s style and luxury. The combination of
its enhanced size and racy detailing give this revised model a real presence.
New styling features include revised front and rear bumpers, a twin-spoke
grille design, quad exhausts, bigger air intakes and stylish 20-inch alloys. Like
the M6 Coupe, the Gran Coupe gets a carbon fibre roof to help reduce weight and
lower it’s the centre of gravity. At nearly five metres long, it has a longer
wheelbase than the Coupe but its overhangs are short and neat giving it an
excitingly sporty finish.
Interior styling
The inside
matches the class of its shell. Its wraparound dashboard is covered with
soft-touch leather and carbon fibre weave, while the luxurious electric sports
seats provide you with the perfect driving position. The steering wheel gives
the car a touch of vintage – reportedly inspired by the 80’s Z1 roadster, and
the frameless windows add to the racy feel. 2015 also sees the inclusion of an
updated iDrive infotainment screen, heads up display and Merino leather across
the cabin.
Practicality
With a longer
wheelbase than previous models, the M6 has generous rear legroom, and the low
roof doesn’t affect headroom. The 460-litre boot is deep enough to accommodate
large suitcases and the rear seatbacks fold down to free up a maximum 1,265
litres of space.
