2027 BMW 2 Series

The 2027 BMW 2-series coupe carries over, as a makeover is possible with the Neue Klasse design language but probably not for 2027. It keeps the 255-hp turbo-four 230i and 382-hp turbo-six M240i, both with standard eight-speed automatics, and MSRP is estimated at $44,000 to $56,950. The Gran Coupe offers more rear-seat room.

What changed for 2027

Car and Driver (opens in a new tab) says with BMW's fresh Neue Klasse design language making its way through the lineup, they wouldn't be surprised to see the 2-series get a makeover at some point in the near future, but it probably won't be for the 2027 model year.

CarsDirect (opens in a new tab) reports that a leak on BMW's own U.S. website showed nothing changing for the 2027 2-Series itself, though the high-performance M2 is set to receive a large update.

Pricing and powertrains for 2027

Car and Driver (opens in a new tab) lists MSRP at $44,000-$56,950 estimated, with the base 230i using a 255-hp turbocharged four-cylinder and the M240i stepping up to a 382-hp turbocharged inline-six, both paired to an eight-speed automatic with rear- or all-wheel drive.

How it compares to related BMW models

Car and Driver (opens in a new tab) says BMW also offers the 2-series in four-door form as the 2-series Gran Coupe, which offers a little more rear-seat room but sacrifices most of the coupe's fun-to-drive character due to its completely different, front-drive-based platform.

Record summary

What to know first

230i uses the 255-horsepower turbo four while M240i steps up to a 382-horsepower turbo six; xDrive AWD is optional across the range including Gran Coupe body styles.

Model-year note

Gran Coupe adds a four-door body style alongside the two-door Coupe: both share the same engine and trim structure. MY2027 carries the 230i's 255-hp turbo four and M240i's turbo-six powertrains over unchanged, with a modest price increase; an AWD-only M2 xDrive trim has been reported as coming to the separate M2, M3 and M4 lineup but was not confirmed on BMW's official configurator at last check.
