Which 2024 BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe Should I Buy?

MotorDonkey's proprietary vehicle data identifies every significant version of each model so that you can compare and decide. Ordered by price from low to high, here are the versions of the 2024 BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe that you need to be aware of, along with our expert analysis and recommendations.

1. 2024 BMW 228i Gran Coupe

• Base Price: $38,400
• MPG Combined: 28
• Drive Type: Front-wheel drive
• Engine: 2.0-liter inline-4
• Aspiration: Turbocharged
• Transmission: 8-speed automatic
• Horsepower: 228 
• Torque: 258 lb⁠-⁠ft
• 0-60: 6.0 sec
• Weight: 3,393 lbs
• Length: 178.5 in

The base front-wheel-drive 228i Gran Coupe has a lot to offer if you can get past its dowdy styling. We wouldn't advise spending more than this on a 2 Series Gran Coupe, though, as you quickly get into 3 Series territory, and the 3 is a superior car.

2. 2024 BMW 228i xDrive Gran Coupe

• Base Price: $40,400
• MPG Combined: 27
• Drive Type: All-wheel drive
• Engine: 2.0-liter inline-4
• Aspiration: Turbocharged
• Transmission: 8-speed automatic
• Horsepower: 228 
• Torque: 258 lb⁠-⁠ft
• 0-60: 6.0 sec
• Weight: 3,534 lbs
• Length: 178.5 in

The all-wheel-drive 228i xDrive Gran Coupe adds traction with hardly any fuel-economy penalty. It's a very sensible upgrade if you plan to drive on slippery roads.

3. 2024 BMW M235i xDrive Gran Coupe

• Base Price: $48,300
• MPG Combined: 27
• Drive Type: All-wheel drive
• Engine: 2.0-liter inline-4
• Aspiration: Turbocharged
• Transmission: 8-speed automatic
• Horsepower: 302 
• Torque: 332 lb⁠-⁠ft
• 0-60: 4.7 sec
• Weight: 3,605 lbs
• Length: 178.5 in

The all-wheel-drive M235i xDrive cranks up the power and cracks the 5.0-second 0-60 barrier, putting it in some pretty elite company, yet its combined fuel economy matches that of the M228i xDrive. It's a miracle! But at nearly $50k to start, it's also rather expensive for a subcompact sedan that's not exactly beautiful.
