Description
This 2024 M235i xDrive Gran Coupe continues to blur the lines between sport and utility, standing out in BMW's lineup as a front-biased, all-wheel-drive compact sedan that doesn?t shy away from its divisive origins. Marketed as a Gran Coupe, this four-door fastback embraces an unconventional identity, one that's stirred purist controversy but also broadened BMW's reach into new urban territory.
At its core lies BMW?s most potent four-cylinder engine: the 2.0-litre turbocharged B48 unit, pumping out 302 bhp and 332 lb-ft of torque. Power is channelled through a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission to all four wheels via xDrive. The result is a 0?62 mph sprint in just 4.8 seconds?seriously brisk for a car in this segment, and more than capable of embarrassing some traditional hot hatches at the lights.
What distinguishes the M235i is not just straight-line pace but the mechanical grip and poise delivered by its standard-fit xDrive system and Torsen mechanical limited-slip differential. On a twisty B-road, it?s composed, responsive, and impressively neutral, with sharp turn-in and confidence-inspiring stability?even if purists may miss the rear-driven playfulness of earlier M Performance machines.
Inside, the cabin feels familiar to anyone versed in BMW?s current design language: high-quality materials, a driver-centric layout, and tech that treads the fine line between cutting-edge and user-friendly. Standard features include M Sport seats, an M leather steering wheel, aluminium Hexacube trim, and BMW?s Live Cockpit Professional with twin 10.25-inch displays running iDrive 8.
