With its long bonnet, black kidney grill and headlight design, it is unmistakably 
BMW. The side skirts and the lower part of the rear apron are no longer painted in 
black, now wearing the colour of the vehicle. The diffuser insert is finished in high- 
gloss black for a contrasting effect at the rear. 
The BMW M240i xDrive Coupé has its own version of the M specific design features 
which draw the eye to the vehicle’s cooling air supply and aerodynamic balance. They 
include the high-gloss black inserts for the side air intakes, the black spoiler lip on 
the front apron, the model-specific rear spoiler and the trapezoidal tailpipes on the 
left and right of the rear apron. The exterior mirror caps of the BMW M automobile 
is now finished in high-gloss black. 
M high-gloss Shadow Line remains part of the standard equipment for both the new 
BMW M240i xDrive Coupé and all other models. The M Sport Pro pack, available as 
an option for all variants of the new BMW 2 Series Coupé, complements the dynamic 
exterior design with: 
 M Shadow Line lights 
 Adaptive LED headlights 

 an M rear spoiler in black and the M high-gloss Shadow Line with extended 
features 
 M Sport Brake system with red-painted brake callipers and M seatbelts.

Inside Story 
The BMW Curved Display, comes with a fully digital display system comprising a 
12.3-inch Information Display and a 14.9-inch Control Display. It serves as a 
platform for the further developed BMW iDrive with QuickSelect based on BMW 
Operating System 8.5. 
Heated seats are included as standard with steering wheel heating optional. 
Automatic air conditioning functions and, if fitted, seat and steering wheel heating 
can be operated by touch on the Control Display or by the very user-friendly aspect of 
voice command. This change is accompanied by a redesign of the instrument panel. 
New control knobs on the air vents in the centre of the dashboard and on the driver's 
and passenger's side allow the direction of the airflow to be adjusted by turning and 
tilting. 
Steering wheels, seat surfaces and interior trim. 
The new BMW 2 Series Coupé comes with an M leather steering wheel as standard. 
The new version features a steering wheel rim that is flattened at the bottom, 
precisely modified spokes and discreet centre markings. The sporty ambience of the 
interior of the M240i is also underlined by a red centre marker at the 12 o'clock 
position and contrasting stitching in BMW M GmbH colours.  
Heated sports seats for the driver and front passenger form part of the standard 
specification in new BMW 2 Series Coupé. Further seat enhancements are optionally 
available, including Electric Seat adjustment with memory function on the driver's 
side and also lumbar support. M Sport seats, also available as an optional extra, offer 
a wide range of adjustment options at the touch of a button, as well as lumbar 
support and partially integrated head restraints. 
New M PerformTex black seats epitomise sportiness and comes as standard in all 
model versions of the new BMW 2 Series Coupé, and combines high-quality 
materials with a sporty design, low weight, and production processes optimised for 
sustainability. The optional perforated Sensatec upholstery is now available in black 
and cognac as well as the new Tacora Red version with decorative quilting. The new 
black version of the Vernasca leather trim with red accents is also available as an 
option. 
The range of optional interior trims also includes an alternative to standard, with 
wood finishes of Fineline light open-pore and Ash grey-blue open-pore, as well as the 
M Carbon Fibre interior trims now available. Additional options for customising the 

premium ambience of the interior are also now available, with “CraftedClarity” glass 
applications giving the gear selector, the BMW Controller and the start/stop button a 
particularly high-quality look and feel. 
Engines, M Sport suspension as standard. 
A 3.0-litre straight six-cylinder engine sits at the top of the 2-Series Coupe range, 
coming with intelligent all-wheel drive, the 374 hp engine more than capable of 
providing entertainment to all bar those who require NASA on its flanks.  
Aside from the potent in-line six-cylinder engine in the BMW M model, the new 
BMW 2 Series Coupé is available with a choice of two four-cylinder petrol engines. 
The 220i Coupé and the 230i Coupé with a maximum output of 245 hp, should meet 
the demands of ordinary mortals.  
All engines are mated to an 8-speed Steptronic Sport transmission, with rapid shift 
dynamics and steering wheel-mounted shift paddles, while the Sprint function is also 
available for those seeking lunar acceleration. As soon as the driver pulls the left 
steering wheel shift paddle for at least one second, the car downshifts to the lowest 
available gear. At the same time, the SPORT driving experience mode is activated 
with the appropriate settings for all drive and suspension systems. This mode change 
is now also visualised by the corresponding graphics on the Information Display. 
M Sport suspension, is fitted as standard in the four-cylinder BMW 2 Series Coupé 
models. This is complemented by a variable sport steering system with a steering 
angle-dependent ratio. This new BMW M240i xDrive Coupé is optionally available 
with Adaptive M Chassis including variable sport steering. Its electronically 
controlled shock absorbers offer three characteristic maps, which can be activated 
according to the selected driving experience mode. The BMW M model is equipped 
as standard with the M Sport differential in the final drive and the M Sport brake 
system, which is also available as an option for the other model variants. 
In the new BMW 2 Series Coupé, BMW Operating System 8.5 can be operated using 
the touch function on the Control Display and natural language via the BMW 
Intelligent Personal Assistant. The system features a new home screen that 
permanently displays the map view of the navigation system or another individually 
selectable display on a large portion of the screen. On the driver's side, widgets are 
displayed at the same level in a vertical bar and can be selected directly using the 
QuickSelect shortcut without having to switch to a submenu. The new, flat menu 
structure makes it much easier to navigate between the various functions and helps 
the driver of the new BMW 2 Series Coupé to concentrate on the road ahead. 
Navigation and full-colour HUD 
The BMW Maps navigation system, standard in the new BMW 2 Series Coupé as part 
of the BMW Live Cockpit Plus, offers even easier destination entry, additional 
information while driving and further optimisation for fast and precise route 
guidance. Offered as part of the optional BMW Live Cockpit Professional, the full- 
colour BMW Head-Up Display is now supplemented by the Augmented View 
function. This enhances the navigation system's map display with contextual, real- 
time information. A live video stream from the driver's point of view is shown on the 
Control Display or the Information Display and supplemented with relevant 
information such as directional arrows for precise route guidance.
