📖BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé G16 LCI: refined four-door luxury flagship requiring proactive driveline upkeep

BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé (G16 LCI, facelift 2022) (2022-Présent)

Updated in 2022, the BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé G16 LCI solidified its position as one of the most desirable four-door luxury grand tourers on the market. Distinguishing features included the illuminated Iconic Glow kidney grille, a larger 12.3-inch central display, and enhanced cabin materials throughout. Preserving this executive thoroughbred demands methodical BMW 8 Series maintenance, ensuring that its advanced mechanicals and complex digital systems operate in total harmony.

The engine lineup consists of the 48V mild-hybrid 840d xDrive (B57 diesel), the refined 840i (B58 straight-six petrol) and the commanding M850i xDrive (530 hp N63 twin-turbo V8). All models deploy the fast-shifting ZF 8-speed automatic gearbox and rear-biased xDrive. The rigid chassis benefits from adaptive M suspension and optional active anti-roll stabilisation, providing remarkable cornering composure for a large, comfortable luxury saloon.
