Getting in a performance-tuned BMW is easy with the 2021 BMW M235i xDrive Gran Coupe. This luxurious, athletic sedan features a satisfying turbocharged four-cylinder engine, M styling and performance technology, and an intuitive iDrive infotainment system. The car is affordably priced but looks expensive. The 2-Series Gran Coupe is a four-door sedan with seating for five and 12 cubic feet of cargo space. While BMW sold its 1-Series lineup in Europe and elsewhere around the globe, the 2-Series was the smallest vehicle sold in the US in 2021. The refined four-door 2021 BMW M235i Gran Coupe defies expectations for a small sedan, remaining true to BMW's reputation for luxury, athleticism, and innovation.
In 2021, BMW offered the 2-Series in the entry-level 228i and 230i with a turbocharged four-cylinder with 228 horsepower and 248 horsepower. At the top of the 2-Series trims in 2021 are the BMW M240i and M2 Competition with turbocharged six-cylinder engines with 335 and 405 horsepower, respectively. The 2021 M235i xDrive Gran Coupe sits pleasantly in the middle of the pack with a turbocharged four-cylinder with 301 horsepower and M Sport brakes, suspension, and tuning. The Gran Coupe also has an eight-speed automatic transmission with steering-wheel paddle shifters and standard all-wheel drive. While other 2-Series models are available as two-door coupes and convertibles, the M235i in 2021 only came in the Gran Coupe body style. Off the line, the BMW M235i has a 0-60 time of 4.7 seconds thanks to the 301 horsepower and 335 lb-ft of torque. It reaches a top speed of 155 MPH. The EPA-estimated fuel rating is a respectable 23 MPG in the city, 32 MPG on the highway, and a combined 26 MPG. The small sedan is agile in the curves and eager off the line thanks to its light curb weight of 3,605 pounds. The 2021 BMW M235i Gran Coupe begs to accelerate and responds well to a light touch of the pedal. Throw in the affordable price tag, and the M235i Gran Coupe is a phenomenal vehicle for any driver looking to get into the BMW M lineup.
The 2021 BMW M235i xDrive Gran Coupe has seating for five with supple, perforated Dakota leather M Sport seats. The front sport bucket seats are heated and have power lumbar support. Additional comfort features include automatic climate control, a heated steering wheel, and ambient interior lighting. The M235i Gran Coupe is available in four interior colors: Black, Mocha, Oyster, and Magma Red. Interior styling is similar to the 3-Series, with a driver-focused design and everything within reach. If you need space for larger items, the back row folds in the BMW 2-Series Gran Coupe.
While the 2021 BMW M235i xDrive wears the name of a coupe, it’s a sedan with coupe-like exterior styling. The front fascia has a bold signature kidney grille flanked by slim LED headlights that wrap into the fender, giving it a modern and aggressive look. The low-slung roof, aerodynamic hood, and trunk are accented with 18-inch M Sport wheels for a high-performance profile. The slim headlights are complemented by matching LED tail lights above dual exhaust ports and a rear diffuser. The M Performance exterior styling includes black accents, muscular bumpers, side skirts, and mirror caps.
The 2021 M235i xDrive Gran Coupe features a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster with a matching infotainment screen. All BMW 2-Series models have Apple CarPlay, and all but the entry-level trim have Android Auto. You’ll get Bluetooth, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, one USB port, navigation, wireless charging, and a 10-speaker sound system. Optional features include a head-up display and a 12-speaker audio system. The 2021 safety technology includes blind-spot monitoring, automatic high beams, speed limit recognition, lane-departure warning, pedestrian detection, forward automatic emergency braking, and rain-sensing windshield wipers. You might find a 2021 M235i xDrive Gran Coupe with optional features like adaptive cruise control, automatic parking assist, and adaptive headlights.
In 2021, the BMW M235i xDrive Gran Coupe had a starting MSRP of $46,495. If you’re in the market for a pre-owned M235i xDrive Gran Coupe, you can find them priced between $26,000 and $35,000. Rare colors, optional features, and low miles will increase the value.
The 2021 BMW M235i xDrive Gran Coupe is an underrated performance-tuned BMW with an accessible price. 2021 was one of the best years for overall 2-Series sales since BMW introduced the entry-level models in 2014.
