Woman This Month - January 2015

www.womanthismonth.com 63 January 2015 A CLASSY COUPÉ If you’re looking for a classy and comfortable car with a striking design and a number of available engines, the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé could be what you’ve been waiting for. The aim in the design process of the new model was to achieve a synergy between the aesthetics and dynamics – typical of a BMW Coupé – and functional versatility of a fourdoor sedan, its makers say. The result is a unique car with a distinctive character that is still unmistakably a BMW. The exterior design features a flat roofline that smoothly flows into the rear end. The recessed passenger compartment appears low and smoothly stretched and the frameless door windows are also a design element indicative of a sporty coupé. The interior has a driver-orientation typical of the BMW brand. The cockpit and front passenger area are bordered by sweeping surfaces with a harmonious connection between the front seats and the rear. The four-door coupé offers generous space in the back with an additional third rear seat, which can be used for shorter journeys. Powered by a choice of two engines with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology, the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé offers sporty potential. The BMW 640i Gran Coupé features a turbocharging system and produces a maximum of 320hp, at 5,800 to 6,000rpm, from a displacement of 3.0-litres and accelerates from 0 to 100kmph in 5.4 seconds. The BMW 650i Gran Coupé has the latest generation of the 4.4-litre V8 engine and both variants are managed by an eight-speed sports automatic transmission built for sporty driving, comfortable shifting and optimised efficiency. The Driving Experience Control switch on the centre console allows the driver to alter accelerator response characteristics, engine response, the power steering characteristics, the DSC settings, the damper characteristics and the shift characteristics of the automatic transmission. A range of BMW ConnectedDrive driver assistance technology features include BMW Park Assistant, Camera-based Collision Warning with braking function (in conjunction with Active Cruise Control) and the latest-generation full colour BMW HeadUp Display that projects driving information on the windscreen in 3D. As with all BMW models, the 6 Series Gran Coupé features an exclusive options list that includes comfort seats and sports seats, active seats, seat ventilation, exclusive Nappa leather, ceramic applications, heated rear seats and 4-zone automatic climate control. There is also a Bang & Olufsen High-End Surround Sound System that offers a dynamic sound experience from every seat. Call Euro Motors on 17 750-750 or visit the Sitra showroom. Power, precision and comfort are the driving forces behind this distinctive car and its big personality. showcase
