===== AGILE, REFINED, M SPORT-EQUIPPED, ONE-OWNER, NONSMOKER, PURE DRIVING PLEASURE! ===== The 2026 BMW 2 Series 228 Gran Coupe introduces a genuinely compelling entry point into BMW's compact luxury lineup, and this single-owner example arrives generously equipped right from the factory. Finished in Vegas Red Metallic, this Gran Coupe pairs BMW's signature driving character with the everyday usability of a proper four-door sedan. As the new front-wheel-drive entry to the 2 Series Gran Coupe range, the 228 retains the same 241-horsepower turbocharged engine and richly equipped standard content as its all-wheel-drive counterpart, making it a compelling value for buyers who don't need the added traction of xDrive. This particular example comes standard with the M Sport Exterior package, including Adaptive M Suspension and 18-inch M Y-spoke bicolor wheels, giving it genuine visual and dynamic credentials beyond a standard-equipped 2 Series. ===== WHY SHOPPERS BUY THIS MODEL ===== The 2 Series Gran Coupe has carved out a distinct niche by delivering genuine BMW driving dynamics in a compact, four-door package that's easier to live with day to day than a traditional coupe. Buyers are drawn to its responsive steering, confident brakes, and eagerness to dart through corners, qualities that have made it a favorite among enthusiasts who still need room for passengers and cargo. The new-for-2026 front-wheel-drive 228 model further broadens that appeal by lowering the starting price without sacrificing the rich standard equipment list BMW built into this generation, making the Gran Coupe's blend of style and performance more accessible than ever. ===== AUTOMOTIVE PRESS AND INDUSTRY RECOGNITION ===== Reviewers have praised the 2026 2 Series Gran Coupe for its potent acceleration, zippy handling, and surprisingly strong fuel economy for the segment. The 228's turbocharged four-cylinder and new seven-speed dual-clutch transmission have been specifically noted for delivering quick, smooth gear changes that reinforce the car's sport-sedan character. ===== WARRANTY ===== The odometer is hovering around the 20,142-mile mark, and it is STILL COVERED by the factory. ==== Remaining Transferable Factory Coverage ==== * New Vehicle Limited Warranty -- Covers virtually every component against defects in materials and workmanship, including the engine, transmission, and electrical systems.

BMW Digital Key Plus with UWB and Comfort Access keyless entry round out a genuinely upscale starting point before considering any additional options. Dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, and illuminated Aluminum Graphite interior trim further reinforce that this Gran Coupe was built to feel special every time you get behind the wheel, not just on the options list. ===== INSTALLED OPTIONS ===== Beyond its already rich standard equipment, this Gran Coupe was optioned with premium paint and a heated steering wheel. ==== Standalone Features ==== * Vegas Red Metallic Paint * A distinctive premium exterior finish that gives this Gran Coupe a more striking presence than a standard solid color. * Heated Steering Wheel * Adds welcome warmth on cold mornings before the cabin fully warms up. ===== MECHANICAL FEATURES ===== Power comes from BMW's turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylind
