Overview

Written by automotive expert Alex Nishimoto

1/23/2026

The 4 Series Gran Coupe is the four-door counterpart to BMW's two-door 4 Series coupe and convertible (reviewed separately). It offers similar driving thrills with the added practicality and utility of an extra pair of doors and a rear hatch. The Gran Coupe is slightly longer than the 3 Series sedan, but its back seat is a bit more cramped due to the sloping roofline. Two mild hybrid engines are available, including a turbocharged four-cylinder and a more powerful turbocharged inline-six.

Good

6.5

out of 10

We drove the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Driving experience

7/10

How does the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe drive? In our testing, the 430i base trim accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 6.2 seconds, an average time for a small luxury car with a base engine. For more fun and personality, the optional six-cylinder engine is a must. The transmission shifts smoothly and quickly, and pulling away from stops and driving at low speed is comfortable and easy. Through turns, the 4 Series Gran Coupe is stable and secure, and braking power is also impressive. The brakes are grabby at low speeds, though, and require a delicate foot to slow smoothly. The optional adaptive suspension dampers help the car ride comfortably in all drive modes, especially Comfort mode. Our biggest gripe with the 4 Series Gran Coupe is its limited visibility. The side mirror blocks much of the view out of the driver's side window, and the car's blind spots are large.

BMW offers several advanced driving aids — even low-speed hands-off driving while on the highway — but they're nearly all optional. The 430i comes with just automatic emergency braking, a blind-spot warning system and lane keeping assistance. Most competitors are more generous.

Comfort

6.4/10

How comfortable is the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe? Despite its low-slung sport sedan look, the 4 Series Gran Coupe is surprisingly comfortable. The cabin is quiet and does a commendable job of insulating passengers from the outside world. The low driving position is great, and the seats, while firm, are supportive. Multiple adjustments allow you to find an ideal position. Even the back seats, which passengers might expect to be cramped, are roomy enough. A 6-foot-tall passenger can sit behind a 6-foot-tall driver with room to spare.

The rear seats are even roomy enough to accommodate large child car seats, and the easily accessible anchor points help ease installation. Getting a bulky seat through the small rear door openings can be a pain, though.

In-cabin tech

8.4/10

How’s the tech? The massive central touchscreen looks great, and the interface is so intuitive that the traditional iDrive knob down by the shifter seems almost superfluous. If you'd rather let your phone take over that screen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto perform flawlessly. Our test car also lacked the upgraded Harman Kardon audio system, but the standard audio system is strong enough that it wasn't a huge loss.

Storage & cargo

6/10

How’s storage and cargo? The 4 Series Gran Coupe features a roomy liftback cargo area instead of a typical trunk. The liftgate opens wide, so the opening itself is akin to a giant mouth, swallowing everything in its path. It's far easier than packing a trunk. Storage for small items is less impressive. There are the requisite cupholders in the center console, but they don't fit larger bottles. The door pockets are also quite small, and the glovebox and armrest storage are also smaller than we'd like.

Value

6.4/10

Is the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe a good value? The 4 Series Gran Coupe can get pricey, but its mix of practicality, everyday comfort, and excellent build quality almost justifies the price. It's better to drive than the standard 3 Series and offers more storage space, which makes it an even better daily commuter. BMW's warranty on the 4 Series Gran Coupe is solid, with standard and drivetrain warranties stretching for four years/50,000 miles.

MPG

5/10

How’s the fuel economy? We tested the 430i, which gets an EPA-estimated 29-30 mpg in combined city/highway driving, depending on whether you spec all- or rear-wheel drive. That's respectably fuel-efficient for a small luxury sedan. On our standardized test route, the 4 Series Gran Coupe nearly met the EPA's estimate, giving us 28.9 mpg. Overall, the 430i Gran Coupe is pretty efficient for a luxury car, though it's worth noting that the far more powerful six-cylinder M440i offers virtually the same fuel economy estimates.

X factor

7/10

The 4 Series Gran Coupe is either extremely interesting or awful to look at depending on your personal tastes. That said, there's little doubt this BMW presents a distinct form on today's roads. Taste is subjective, but the 4 Series is certainly different, and BMW deserves credit for that. We wish the 430i's engine was more powerful. Drivers seeking more fun-to-drive thrills in this body style really need to consider the more powerful M440i model. That said, 430i owners won't feel snubbed, and the 4 Series is certainly more fun than the regular 330i sedan.

Build & Price

2026 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe trim level differences

The 2026 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe is a four-door hatchback with a coupe-like swept roofline. This design distinguishes it from the traditionally styled 3 Series sedan, as well as the 4 Series coupe and convertible. The Gran Coupe is available in four trim levels: 430i, 430i xDrive, M440i and M440i xDrive. Both 430i trims use a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine combined with a 48-volt mild hybrid motor (255 horsepower, 295 lb-ft of torque). The M440i trims feature a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six-cylinder with a 48-volt mild hybrid motor (386 hp, including 11 hp from the mild hybrid motor, and 398 lb-ft). An eight-speed automatic transmission is standard. The 430i and M440i trims are rear-wheel-drive and the two xDrive trims are all-wheel-drive. Compare the 2026 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe trim levels in-depth.

Which 4 Series Gran Coupe trim does Edmunds recommend?

A base 430i upgraded with a few packages will give you the best bang for your buck. The turbocharged four-cylinder provides adequate thrust and can be paired with all-wheel drive if you live in a colder, wetter climate. We recommend checking the boxes for the Convenience package and Driving Assistance Professional package to gain access to adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance and heated front seats.

Competitors to consider

The 4 Series Gran Coupe's closest competitor is the Audi A5 and S5 (formerly known as the A5 Sportback and S5 Sportback). Both the BMW and Audi are compact luxury four-doors with a swoopy profile and rear hatch. The 4 Series Gran Coupe also competes with more traditional luxury sedans, including the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Genesis G70, Acura TLX and the mechanically similar BMW 3 Series. Read our editors' thorough Expert Rating below for more on how the Gran Coupe stacks up against its rivals.

Edmunds spotlight: Hatchback benefits

With 16.6 cubic feet available when the rear seats are in place, the Gran Coupe's cargo capacity doesn't immediately impress. For comparison, the similarly sized 3 Series sedan's trunk offers 16.9 cubic feet. However, once those rear seats are folded, the Gran Coupe's cargo volume grows to 45.6 feet. The 3 Series' back seat folds as well, but the opening will be narrower due to the placement of the rear window.
