As German luxury automakers slice and dice traditional market segments, it's fair to say the 2019 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe is in a class of one. The 4 Series is essentially a coupe/convertible version of the ubiquitous 3 Series sedan, and the Gran Coupe further complicates the naming scheme by being a four-door variant of the 4 Series.
Pros Hatchback body style makes it easy to load cargo Stout performance with either engine Upscale interior with easy-to-use controls Well-balanced ride and handling
Cons Available only with an automatic transmission Less cargo space than closest hatchback competitors Heavier and costlier than similar sedan competitors Less backseat headroom than in the 3 Series sedan
