The third model in the BMW 6 Series line up, the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé follows the successful debut of the next generation Convertible and Coupé models launched last year.

The aim in the design process of the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé was to achieve synergy between the aesthetics and dynamics typical of a BMW Coupé and functional versatility of a four-door sedan. The result is a unique car with a distinctive character but unmistakably a BMW.
Stavros Paraskevaides, Managing Director, Mohamed Yousuf Naghi Motors (BMW), said: "The BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé follows in the tire tracks of the BMW 6 Series Convertible and Coupé that we launched last year. We have already received a lot of interest for this new BMW model and are confident that its distinctive character - such as the low Coupé-style roof line - combined with dynamic driving, unmatched features and elegant style, will continue turn heads amongst Saudi customers."

Powered by a choice of two engines with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology, the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé offers a sporty and powerful drive experience. The six-in-line engine in the BMW 640i Gran Coupé comprises a turbocharging system, High Pressure Injection and Valvetronic, twin-scroll turbocharging. The exhaust gas pulses from each bank of three cylinders are fed through two separate channels to the turbine wheel. This produces maximum power of 320 hp, at 5,800 to 6,000 rpm, from a displacement of 3.0 liters allowing the BMW 640i Gran Coupé to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.4 seconds.

The top-of-the-line BMW 650i Gran Coupé with the latest generation of the 4.4-litre V8 engine with its two turbochargers and High Precision Direct Injection optimizes both efficiency and response, when it arrives in market in September this year.

Power in both engines of the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé is managed by an eight-speed sports automatic transmission. – SG
