Like the coupe, an M Sport package will also be standard across the 4 Series Gran Coupe range in Australia, which includes sportier elements on the front and rear bumper, and side skirts.

The 430i and M440i, meanwhile, score Adaptive M suspension and M Sport brakes.

Standard safety includes lane departure warning, lane change assist, forward collision warning, autonomous emergency braking, rear cross-traffic alert, front and rear parking sensors, and a reversing camera.

Aside from the addition of two rear doors, the 4 Series Gran Coupe is also differentiated from its coupe sibling and 3 Series cousin with flush door handles and unique lower rear bumper apron.
