The New BMW 6 Series Coupe

The hearts of sports car aficionados with an eye for luxury and innovative technology will beat a little faster at the sight of the new BMW 6 Series Coupe. With the third generation of this top-class coupe, premium carmaker BMW adds another chapter to its decade-long tradition in the production of exclusive dream cars. The new BMW 6 Series Coupe impresses with its irresistible design and inspires with even sharper driving dynamics than its predecessor, noticeably optimised by virtue of its comfort features and added space. In its own attractive manner, it combines superior sportiness with exclusive touring comfort and 460 litres of luggage space.

BMW TwinPower Turbo technology provides for both sporty power development and exceptional efficiency of the engines available at market introduction. The high-performance V8 power unit in the BMW 650i Coupe produces 300 kW/407 hp. The six-cylinder in-line petrol engine in the BMW 640i Coupe develops 235 kW/320 hp. The BMW 640d Coupe is powered by a new six-cylinder in-line diesel engine delivering 230 kW/313 hp. All of these engines are combined with an eight-speed Sport automatic transmission as standard equipment. Also part of the standard equipment is an extensive range of BMW EfficientDynamics measures, including the Auto Start-Stop function and ECO PRO mode (in the BMW 640i Coupe and BMW 640d Coupe). For the first time in the BMW 6 Series, the BMW 650i Coupe can also be equipped with BMW xDrive, the intelligent four-wheel drive system.
