Not happy enough with the 4 series coupe and convertible, or the 3 series sedan, BMW has created a third compact car. Called the 4 Series Gran Coupe, it’s a more stylish sedan that trades a bit of practicality for a swoopier shape. Like its siblings, the Gran Coupe is offered with a choice of turbocharged four and six cylinder engines.
Despite its stylish appearance, there is a practicality advantage to the 4 Series Gran Coupe. The rear features a lift gate that allows greater access to load and unload cargo.

2022 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe First Drive Review: Function and Form
The nose is fine.
I admit it, the 4 Series schnoz doesn’t bother now me as much as it did a year ago. Out in the glorious desert, mere minutes from Joshua Tree National Park, the 2022 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe looks pretty smart. Did some of us make a big deal out of nothing? Auto journos being overdramatic? *gasp*
BMW has brought back the Gran Coupe for the second generation of its 4 Series. As before, it marries the coupe’s front-end styling to a four-door middle section, with a more graceful roofline that once again ends in a hatchback. Since America doesn’t like to count that as an extra door, this is the four-door version (4GC) of the two-door version (4) of the four-door car (3). Makes sense, right? Good. For a bit of extra cash over a 3 Series, buyers have the option of a compact four-door BMW with more style, without sacrificing any usefulness. In fact, without a wagon on this side of the Atlantic, the Gran Coupe is the most practical 3 or 4 Series you can buy.
