BMW has launched the 8 Series Gran Coupe
in India, with prices starting at INR 1.30 crore*. This is the German
automaker’s flagship four-door coupe. BMW offers the 8 Series Gran Coupe in
India with features like laser headlights, 19-inch alloy wheels, four-zone
automatic climate control system, 12.3-inch fully digital instrument cluster,
10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and
satellite navigation, full-colour head-up display and 464-watt, 16-speaker
Harman Kardon surround sound system.
There are two trims on offer: standard and
M Sport Edition. For most of the aforementioned features, you’ll need to bump
to the M Sport Edition. The BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe is available in India in
only the most basic, 840i engine variant. This means that it employs a
3.0-litre in-line six-cylinder petrol engine that produces 340 PS at
5,000-6,500 rpm and 500 Nm of torque at 1,600-4,500 rpm. An 8-speed automatic
transmission directs drive to the rear wheels. The fuel economy rating
(mileage) in this configuration is 11.3 km/l. A 0-100 sprint takes 5.2 seconds.
BMW manufactures the 8 Series Gran Coupe
at its Dingolfing plant in Germany. The company imports this model to India as a
CBU.
