Car Buyer's Guide

Overview

The BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe is a C-segment, five-seat petrol sedan for buyers after a compact BMW four-door rather than a larger 3 Series. The second-generation F74 arrives in 2025 with a 1.5-litre, 156 hp petrol powertrain and wet dual-clutch automatic gearbox. Prices start from RM173,800.

2 Series Gran Coupe in 2026 — what's new

There is no 2026-specific model-year update for the BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe, so the F74 carries into 2026 unchanged. Malaysia’s range consists of the 218 Sport and 218 Gran Coupe M Sport, both using a 1,499 cc petrol engine producing 156 hp and a wet dual-clutch automatic transmission. The F74 generation brings the new-look 2 Series Gran Coupe and its new interior, following its 2025 launch.

Which variant to buy

Most buyers should take the RM173,800 218 Sport. It has the same 1,499 cc, 156 hp petrol engine, wet dual-clutch automatic and five-seat layout as the RM192,800 218 Gran Coupe M Sport. The RM19,000 gap does not buy extra power or seats, so pay more for the M Sport only if its trim and equipment matter enough to you. On paper, check the equipment list before spending the extra.

Verdict

The F74 2 Series Gran Coupe is BMW’s compact four-door entry point, with useful five-seat practicality and a modest 156 hp petrol drivetrain. It is not a cheap route into this class: the RM173,800 starting price sits above the BYD Seal, Dongfeng 007 and GWM Ora 07, and far beyond the Proton S70. Buy it because you specifically want a small BMW sedan, not because it is the lowest-cost option.
