Yes. Strategically on paper under "Gene Sequencing" there is an 8er family considered that consists of Coupe,Cabrio and Gran Coupe to match the 4er,6er and eventually the 2er that will also bring a Coupe, Cabrio and a Gran Coupe offering choice in the enthusiast prospective compact segment for the next generation.
The BMW Gran Coupe models increase the practical and luxury aspect over the sportier Coupe models.
It took two years but The 6er Gran Coupe outsells both Coupe and Cabrio models. The 4er Gran Coupe is over a year on the market and is doing well but the demographic is somewhat different.
The next 6er is much sharper and combines design ideas from the Vision Future Luxury and CSL Hommage in a progressive form that identifies with the E9 CS and E24 6er but with sharper detailing.
The engineering utilises BMWs Carbon Core technology but with additional CFRP in the floor plan allowing a further drop in weight. Its based on a development of the upcoming BMW-Toyota joint architecture which will be announced soon.
Again the 6er will be presented as a Coupe , Cabrio and Gran Coupe. |
Is that a official sketch? If so, looks pretty good. Except of course the Kia grill.
