2026 BMW 218 Gran Coupé Automatic

2026 BMW 218 Gran Coupé M Sport.

The 2026 BMW 218 Gran Coupé combines a compact footprint with the restrained, driver-focused character expected of a BMW. Finished in Alpine White with a black interior, this new example presents with zero kilometres and an automatic transmission paired with a petrol engine producing 115 kW and 230Nm. Front-wheel drive gives the car a familiar, easy-to-manage layout, while the Gran Coupé design brings a more distinctive profile than a conventional small car.

This vehicle is specified with the M Sport package, which gives the cabin and exterior a more purposeful character. M Sport exterior parts, M Sport interior details, an M leather steering wheel, sport seats and an anthracite headliner create a more cohesive presentation. Adaptive M Suspension is also included, adding further hardware to the specification without compromising the car’s everyday usability. The illuminated aluminium hexacube interior trim provides a contemporary finishing detail across the dashboard and cabin.

For occupants, the equipment list focuses on comfort and convenience. Electric seat adjustment with memory allows the preferred driving position to be recalled, while heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are useful additions in cooler conditions. Automatic air conditioning supports a consistent cabin temperature, and the Comfort Access System reduces the need to handle the key during routine entry and starting.

The Equipment package Professional adds a substantial collection of technology. BMW Live Cockpit Professional, a Head-Up Display and adaptive LED headlights place key information and illumination capability within the driver’s field of attention. High-Beam Assistant helps manage headlight use, while the automatic anti-dazzle interior mirror reduces glare from following traffic. Parking Assistant Plus is designed to simplify low-speed manoeuvring, complemented by the exterior mirror package and wireless charging storage.

Safety and driver support are addressed through features including Driving Assistant Professional, active pedestrian protection, a tyre pressure monitor, an anti-theft security system and Intelligent Emergency Calling. The specification also includes DAB+ radio, a personal eSIM and TeleServices, giving the car a connected equipment base alongside its conventional controls. A Harman Kardon HiFi loudspeaker system forms part of the enhancement package, bringing a more developed audio solution to the cabin.

The petrol powertrain is listed with combined fuel consumption of 6.3L/100km and a 49-litre fuel tank. Manufacturer specifications quote 115 kW, 230Nm, a maximum speed of 230 km/h and 0–100 km/h acceleration in 8.60 seconds. Together with its automatic transmission, these figures position the 218 Gran Coupé as a balanced small BMW with enough performance for varied daily driving while retaining a relatively measured consumption figure.
