Despite having four doors, the impeccably designed 2021 BMW M8 Gran Coupe conveniently has four doors. The high-performance four-door sedan is joyful to drive, thanks to its 600-horsepower engine, luxurious interior features, and dashing exterior design. In previous model years, BMW produced the M8 as a two-door coupe and convertible, but the 2021 model is only available as a Gran Coupe. Thanks to supply issues due to the COVID pandemic, production of the M8 was limited, but the automaker did offer the M8 with the optional Competition package for drivers who wanted to add 17 horsepower to the already powerful engine. BMW did not manufacture a stand-alone M8 Competition in 2021 - again, due to supply chain problems—the M8 Competition as a stand-alone returned to the BMW lineup in 2022.
The 2021 BMW M8 Gran Coupe has a twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 with 600 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, and the car weighs 4480 pounds. It has a top speed of 190 MPH and can go from 0 to 60 in 3.1 seconds.
On the inside, the BMW M8 Gran Coupe features luxurious and sleek interior design focused on the driver. The seamlessly integrated dash displays make it easy for drivers to read the 12.3-inch digital cluster and access the 10.25-inch infotainment screen. The richly appointed cabin is decorated with posh materials like Merino leather seats, Alcantara accents, carbon fiber, or fine wood trim. The front M Sport seats have notable support, especially when accessing the horsepower and torque. The rear seats have room for three and fold to access the ample truck space. Comfort and convenient features include heated and ventilated front seats with 16-way adjustability and rear seats with optional heat and power sunshades. Additional comfort features include dual-zone climate control and a massive panoramic glass roof.
Once you get your first glimpse of the 2021 M8 Gran Coupe, you’ll quickly see what all the attention is about. This vehicle is drop-dead gorgeous. You’ll notice the large kidney grille in a premium gloss-black or shiny chrome finish from the front, surrounded by angular LED headlights and aggressive air intakes. The athletically low-slung profile begins with the long hood and moves to the heavily angled windshield over the sweeping roofline that flows smoothly to the subtle rear spoiler. The flared wheel arches draw attention to the 20-inch wheels covered in coordinating gloss black or chrome. The rear features quad exhaust tips covered in chrome or gloss black and slim LED headlights that angle up along the fenders.
Interior technology includes the iDrive 7.0 system, which offers controls via touchscreen, voice commands, and the console rotary dial. The 10.25-inch infotainment system features Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, USB ports, navigation, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and wireless device charging. A 16-speaker Harman Kardon surround-sound system is standard, but a premium Bowers & Wilkins surround-sound audio system with 12 or 16 speakers is available. Safety technology includes the 8-Series standard features like forward collision warning, a head-up display, automatic high-beam headlights, and more. The Gran Coupe Driving Assistance package includes automatic parking assist, a surround-view camera system, front and rear parking sensors, and blind-spot monitoring. Drivers also get adaptive cruise control with lane-keep, lane-tracing, and traffic jam assist.
