LOOKING FORWARD
TO DRIVING THRILLS.
There is free-spirited adventure – this is the exhilaration of the
unknown. Then there is calculated performance – a combination of
extensive research, time-tested principles and applied technology.
Somewhere in between, you’ll nd the BMW Series Coupe: the
distillation of emotion and engineering in one exceptional vehicle.
Redesigned for 慐慘慐, the Series Coupe debuts innovative new
features. Two noteworthy introductions: the Air Curtain that enhances
the aerodynamics of the 慐慖i; and the distinctive white interior trim
option that sets off the upholstery colors and vibrant exterior paints.
As with all BMWs, the Series Coupe’s development is based on

THE SERIES COUPE:
IMPROVING ON GREAT.
It starts with a winning foundation.
Hailed as a popular and critical favorite upon its U.S. debut, the Series
perfectly captured the spirit of BMW with a simple yet powerful formula.
When creating the Series Coupe, it was only natural that BMW
designers and engineers would retain what made the original a success:
its compact design, extensive use of lightweight components and
addictive power of high-performance six-cylinder engines. From there,
BMW added new features inside and out. For example, new light clusters
front and rear include L-shape LED taillights that, like the illuminated
“eyebrows” of the front light assembly, add a distinctive and highly visible
accent. Inside, new switches, controls and trim lend even more elegance
and convenience to the comfortable cabin. Discover how a vehicle that
already makes all the right moves can be transformed into something even
better: the Series Coupe.

BRILLIANT, FROM
FRONT TO BACK.
No detail is taken too lightly.
Proof that no element goes unnoticed by our designers: the personality
of the Series Coupe is immediately evident even in the new light
assemblies at the front and rear. A more “concentrated” look is the rst
thing you’ll notice when facing the vehicle head-on. The unique “eyebrow”
design is bolstered by the Xenon Adaptive Headlights with LED accents
that confi dently pierce the night air. Corona headlight-rings add another
BMW signature element. In the rear, newly designed L-shape taillights lend
a sportier look, especially when complemented by brilliant LED lighting.
The Series Coupe even adds active safety into this illuminating equation:
the Xenon Adaptive Headlights come equipped with integrated Cornering
Lights that swivel to cast light on every turn, while Adaptive Brakelights
illuminate even more brightly when greater stopping force is used.

Barely visible at ground level of the front air dam, the Air Curtain on the BMW i Coupe streams
air through narrow vents. This air is then accelerated and forced out at even higher speed across the
front wheels, where it creates an “air curtain.” Although it seems a small, simple detail, this innovation
reduces air resistance – which, in turn, leads to an improvement in stability and a reduction in fuel
consumption. It’s a great example of how even unassuming BMW components can have a larger effect.

BMW’s on-board Navigation system uses Global Positioning System

to your destination, which is displayed on a : high-resolution screen.
Enhancements include -D daytime and nighttime maps, zoom, travel

objects when parking. While engaged in a parking maneuver, acoustic
signals and a visual indicator shown in the Control Display continually
provide feedback on your progress. As the rear of your vehicle approaches
a stationary object, the image shown on the Display screen changes and
the warning beeps come faster as your bumper closes the distance to
the object. To complement the visual display, the beeps turn into a
constant tone when the distance is less than inches. (Shown with
