With the 2021 BMW 840i xDrive Gran Coupe, BMW has cornered the market on spacious touring sedans with silky smooth, athletic rides. This exceptionally engineered four-door touring sedan has seating for five, innovative interior technology, and an extremely satisfying turbocharged inline-six engine. While a beefy V8 version of the BMW 8-Series Gran Coupe exists, the 840i xDrive Gran Coupe gets the job done quite well. With 335 horsepower and a 0-60 time of 4.7 seconds, it’s easy to see how the posh four-door touring sedan has the heart of a muscular sports car.
The elegant 2021 BMW 840i xDrive Gran Coupe is technically the entry-level model in the 8-Series lineup, but there’s nothing “entry-level” about it. This upscale touring sedan has a turbocharged inline-six engine with 335 horsepower and 368 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired with a velvety-smooth eight-speed automatic transmission and the xDrive all-wheel-drive system. The 0-60 time is a satisfying 4.7 seconds, and the muscular powertrain has a top speed of 155 MPH. With the inline-six engine, the BMW 840i xDrive gets decent fuel economy, especially for a full-size touring sedan. The EPA-estimated fuel rating is 20 MPG in the city, 27 MPG on the highway, and 23 MPG combined. The ride quality is a nice blend of power and comfort with sports car-like handling. Even though there are faster models, the BMW 840i xDrive Gran Coupe has enough power and agility to bring a satisfying grin to your face when you press the accelerator.
The BMW 8-Series is at the top of the lineup, so the interior is exceptional. In an 840i xDrive with standard features, drivers get leather-upholstered seats. The front seats have 14-way power adjustability with heat and memory settings. The power soft-close doors remind you that you are driving an 8-Series, while the ambient interior lighting lets you customize your experience. The Gran Coupe includes a panoramic sunroof, quad-zone climate control for ultimate comfort, and a power rear sunshade. Optional features in 2021 include heated rear seats, Merino leather upholstery, a glass shift knob, and handy console controls. With or without the interior additions, the Gran Coupe interior provides a tranquil interior experience that provides a pleasant dichotomy from the power under the hood.
The 2021 BMW 840i xDrive Gran Coupe is easy on the eyes. The sleek, low-slung profile hints at the power under the hood, while the large kidney grille and sleepy-eyed LED headlights present a distinctive look that is purely BMW. The front bumper has large air intakes, adding to the aggressive look from the front. Additional premium features include wheels ranging in size from 18 to 20 inches, chrome or black accents, and body-colored door handles. The rear end features a subtle spoiler, wraparound LED tail lights, dual exhaust ports, and a sloping coupe-style roofline. The sleek and sporty exterior styling gives the 840i xDrive Gran Coupe fits the distinctive BMW identity.
BMW has been at the forefront of interior and safety technology - especially in the high-end 8-Series models. The 840i Gran Coupe interior tech includes convenience features like proximity keyless entry and remote start, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and a 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen. The intuitive iDrive entertainment technology has Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, HD Radio, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, Bluetooth, navigation, and a 16-speaker Harman Kardon audio system. BMW also includes a state-of-the-art wireless charging pad and a useful Wi-Fi hotspot. Optional interior tech includes a head-up display and a premium Bowers & Wilkins surround-sound audio system. Standard safety features include forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking, automatic high beams, lane departure warning, and rain-sensing windshield wipers. Optional safety tech includes adaptive cruise control, traffic jam assist, and lane-keep assist.
In 2021, the premium BMW 840i xDrive Gran Coupe had a premium MSRP of $88,895. At Exotic Car Trader, pre-owned models sell for between $43,000 and $58,000. The mileage, vehicle history report, and optional features affect the price, but it is still nearly half what drivers paid for new models in 2021.
