Overview
The F74 BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe is a C-segment, five-seat petrol sedan for buyers who want a compact BMW saloon rather than an SUV. Launched in 2025, it uses a 1.5-litre 156 hp petrol engine and wet dual-clutch automatic. Malaysian pricing starts at RM192,800.
The F74 2 Series Gran Coupe carries into 2026 unchanged; no 2026-specific Malaysian update is announced. This second-generation model arrived in 2025 with new looks and a new interior. Malaysia’s range comprises the 218 Gran Coupe M Sport and 218 Sport, both using a 1,499 cc 156 hp petrol engine, wet dual-clutch automatic and five seats.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should choose the RM192,800 218 Gran Coupe M Sport. It carries the same listed 1,499 cc, 156 hp petrol powertrain, wet dual-clutch automatic and five-seat layout as the RM218,800 218 Sport, yet costs RM26,000 less. The Sport only makes sense if its final equipment specification includes items you specifically want; on the published mechanical figures, the extra money buys no added performance. Check the equipment list before signing.

across the range — availability varies by variant
The second-generation 2 Series Gran Coupe brings new looks and a new interior, while Malaysia gets the 156 hp 218 rather than Thailand’s 204 PS 220. It costs more than the BYD Seal, Dongfeng 007 and GWM Ora 07. Its case rests on wanting a compact five-seat petrol BMW sedan, not on undercutting those rivals.
