Along with its impeccable dynamics and crisp handling, the M i takes you from to in an asphalt-blistering . seconds ; its sibling, the i, makes the trip in . seconds while posting an amazing mpg highway. But awe-inspiring speed and efficiency are only part of a story that has propelled BMW style and technology into the next century. To a segment that is often sporty yet spartan, the BMW Series brings a wealth of space, upscale appointments, quality materials and performance enhancements.
Get behind the wheel of the all-new BMW Series Coupe and discover that adrenaline has a new shape – and, as of today, that shape will be a blur in every other driver’s eye.

As if molded by pure movement, the BMW Series Coupe tapers dramatically toward the iconic BMW kidney grille. The modified contours of the headlights narrow at their inner extremes, like eyes glued to the road, and give the Series Coupe a forward-surging presence and aggressive stance.
PROOF THAT BEAUTY MOVES YOU.
UNLEASH YOUR INNER ENTHUSIAST.
The all-new BMW Series has been finessed to increase performance, down to the smallest details. Significantly larger than its Series predecessor, the drag coefficient of both the i and M i Coupe is engineered to be as low as the laws of earthly physics will allow. With rear-wheel drive and a near-perfect / back-to-front balance, to drive the BMW Series is to experience something that makes every other vehicle on the road feel like, well, just a car.
BELIEVE IN FATE. BELIEVE IN LOVE. BELIEVE IN HP.
From the back – which is the most common view other drivers have – the contours of the hood precisely lock into the distinctive BMW L-shape taillights, where LED light bars underscore the vehicle’s dynamic personality. A wind tunnel-tested spoiler, all but invisible yet always felt, increases the road-hugging force at speed for an even more impressive driver experience.
YOU ARE EITHER IN THE DRIVER’S SEAT OR IN THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR.
THE MOST EXCITING PLACE IN THE WORLD.
The driver-oriented dash and free-standing Control Display show all the relevant data you need and
want, making it easy to stay in control at all times |
touch is a sense |
of space, proportion, safety and solidity – hallmarks |
inside and out, the |
BMW Series gives you the confidence to explore |
with the road. |
You don’t just drive the all-new BMW Series Coupe. You slip freely through the channels of air it creates and redirects for maximum performance. Subtle but effective Air Curtains, integrated at the outer edges of the front apron, channel rushing air behind the front fenders and cause it to hang over the wheels like a curtain. This not only reduces turbulence but further enhances the outstandingly stable aerodynamics, precise handling and fuel efficiency.
AN EXTERIOR DESIGNED TO CHANGE YOUR INTERIOR.
PREPARE YOUR
PASSENGERS
FOR BLAST OFF.
When it is time for maximum acceleration, all you need are hands, feet and nerves. The Launch Control feature on the -speed Sport Automatic transmission lets you use the most advantageous combination of wheelslip, maximum engine power and gear shift timing. You don’t so much accelerate as fly down the road. And because the all-new
Series is all BMW, it is under your control – right through to a perfect landing.
EXCEED THE ONLY EXPECTATIONS THAT MATTER: YOUR OWN.
