BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé (2024) Price & Specs
The facelifted BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé will again be offered exclusively in M Sport guise in South Africa. Here are the derivatives available and what they cost…
The BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé was handed a facelift in April 2024. Now, ahead of the launch of this updated G26-generation 4-door model in South Africa, we’ve found local pricing.
In Mzansi, the line-up again kicks off with the 420i Gran Coupé and 420d Gran Coupé, which still come standard in M Sport guise. Interestingly, however, there’s no sign of the updated 6-cylinder M440i xDrive Gran Coupé (nor the revised fully electric i4) yet.
According to BMW SA’s online configurator, the 420i Gran Coupé M Sport is priced from R1 012 067, representing a R63 504 increase over the pre-facelift version. Meanwhile, the refreshed 420d Gran Coupé M Sport now starts at R1 059 044, a R63 671 hike over the outgoing iteration.
However, it’s worth keeping in mind the configurator forces the selection of the otherwise-optional Parking Assist Plus, with this R13 000 included in the figures above. For the record, the website says “it is currently not possible to remove” this option from the configuration “due to product updates”.
As a reminder, the 420i employs a turbocharged 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine that sends an unchanged 135 kW and 300 Nm to the rear axle via an 8-speed automatic transmission. The 0-100 kph time is listed as 7.9 seconds, with the claimed combined fuel economy coming in at 6.5 L/1 00km.
The 420d, meanwhile, uses a 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder turbodiesel motor delivering 140 kW and 400 Nm to the rear wheels (also through an 8-speed auto). From what we can tell, the updated version of this oil-burning powertrain gains a 48V mild-hybrid system capable of temporarily contributing 8 kW. Expect a 0-100 kph time of around 7.3 seconds and a consumption of approximately 5.0 L/100 km.
Options for the facelifted BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé in South Africa include 20-inch BMW Individual alloy wheels (for R10 000 to replace the standard 19-inch items), the M Sport Package Pro (R30 000), the M Carbon exterior package (R35 000) and the Deluxe Package (adding items like a sunroof, keyless entry, electrically adjustable front seats and a Harman Kardon surround-sound system, for an additional R60 000).
Extras such as adaptive M suspension (R10 000), M Sport brakes (R14 000), M Sport seats (R19 000), adaptive LED headlights (R33 000), BMW Live Cockpit Professional (R27 000) and Driving Assist Professional (R27 000) are also available.
The 4 Series Gran Coupé facelift includes new exterior paint colours, redesigned alloy wheels and subtle styling revisions up front (chiefly to the LED headlamps and kidney grille). Round back, the exhaust tailpipe diameters have grown 10 mm to 100 mm, while the cabin gains an upgraded BMW iDrive system, a new steering-wheel design, standard ambient lighting and revised adjustment controls for the air vents.
