The new BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe (F44) celebrates Czech market debut

We bring you fresh pictures of the new 2 Series Gran Coupe from the Czech market launch. The first of its kind, the F44 generation is underpinned by the new FAAR front-driven platform to be also found on the F40 1 Series.

The new BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe has left many of us undecided or intrigued. Yes, it might have a quirky look if you expect it to act like a mini-8 Series Gran Coupe. The proportions of the body are quite controversial and need time to get accustomed to them.

Since I first saw it, the F44 2 Series has managed to grow a bit in my eyes. While it still flaunts a rather bulky silhouette, I must say the overall styling is better than the styling of the new 1 Series.

Of course, I would have liked more athletic lines, but given the front-wheel-drive shortcomings, this is the best that BMW could have done in these adverse conditions. What is really putting many fans off is the sort of hatchback look that the 2 Series Gran Coupe displays.

Probably, most customers which value practicality over looks and FWD traction will certainly have no problem in triggering a successful career for the 2 Series Gran Coupe. The improved space and visibility over the 1 Series will certainly attract many clients towards the F44, with a large share of first-time BMW buyers. Not to mention the digital equipment, which is on par with the 3 Series and at a lower price.

Sincerely, I predict a remarkable tenure for the 2 Series Gran Coupe within the BMW lineup, even though it has nothing to do with most of the points in the true philosophy of the Bavarians that the die-hard fans are always praising.

The F44 might not essentially be the BMW you were looking to own one day, but it certainly is a correct proposition in its segment. Certainly, the 2 Series Gran Coupe won’t let anybody cold-hearted.

For the market introduction, the Czech Republic subsidiary of BMW Group has chosen to display two daring versions of the compact Gran Coupe: the 220d and the high-end M235i xDrive, both of which were finished in the sensational Snapper Rocks Blue metallic color.
