The 2024 BMW M850i xDrive Gran Coupe is a 4-door sedan. It is obviously pretty heavy for how modern and full of luxury amenities (systems, utilities, features, etc.), but it is pretty subtle, quiet, agile, sporty, and elegant. The second-generation of the BMW 8 Series consists of the BMW G14 (convertible version), BMW G15 (two-door coupe version) grand tourers and BMW G16 (four-door "Gran Coupe" sedan version) executive cars (E). The G14/G15/G16 generation has been in production since 2018, and is often collectively referred to as the G15. It is the successor to the BMW 6 Series (F06/F12/F13) range and marks the return of the BMW 8 Series nameplate after nearly two decades. The M8 models (designated F91/F92/F93) were unveiled in 2019 and are powered by the twin-turbocharged BMW S63 V8 petrol engine. The M850i xDrive Gran Coupe is produced in Dingolfing near Munich, Germany. It is designed by Jacobo Domínguez (G16) because he designed the BMW G16 (four-door "Gran Coupe" sedan version). The Wheelbase is G16: 3,023 mm (119.0 in), the Length is G16: 5,072 mm (199.7 in), the Width is 76.1 inches, and the Height is 55.0 inches. The Gran Coupé sedan (G16) of the 8 Series was announced in June 2019 and went on sale in September 2019.
The 8 Series Gran Coupé has enlarged rear passenger space dimensions including improved headroom compared to the 6 Series Gran Coupé (F06) that it replaced.[13] Like its predecessor, the 8 Series Gran Coupé is seen as a flashier sportier alternative to its platform-mate, the more traditional BMW 7 Series (G11) sedan, and it competes with the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupé and Porsche Panamera.[14][15][16] The production model is based on the modular CLAR platform and has a design largely unchanged from the Concept 8 Series.[17] The 8 Series utilises a double-wishbone front suspension and rear multi-link suspension.[18] The car uses BMW's Carbon Core technology, integrating carbon-fibre within its chassis.[19] GPS navigation data is used for the 8-speed automatic transmission to predict upshifts or downshifts when approaching a junction,[20] and cameras along with sensors are utilised to determine appropriate shutdowns for the engine start-stop system.[21] The 8 Series utilises a double-wishbone front suspension and rear multi-link suspension.[18] The car uses BMW's Carbon Core technology, integrating carbon-fibre within its chassis.[19] GPS navigation data is used for the 8-speed automatic transmission to predict upshifts or downshifts when approaching a junction,[20] and cameras along with sensors are utilised to determine appropriate shutdowns for the engine start-stop system.[21] The 850i xDrive is available worldwide.
