The BMW 6 Series Gran Turismo (2018-2023) is a polarizing fastback sedan blending hatchback practicality with luxury sedan refinement. The 620d xDrive pairs a 2.0-liter diesel four-cylinder (190 hp) with all-wheel drive and eight-speed automatic transmission. Reviewers praise its spacious interior, cavernous cargo area, and comfortable ride, though criticize its awkward styling and steep pricing. The diesel delivers excellent fuel economy (40+ mpg) and highway cruising capability. It's famous for being BMW's most practical sedan alternative but infamous for its controversial, bulbous design that confused buyers—leading BMW to discontinue the 6 GT lineup. Best suited for: European buyers prioritizing space and efficiency over sportiness; long-distance commuters wanting premium comfort; small families needing cargo versatility without buying an SUV. Its diesel efficiency and space make it ideal for high-mileage highway use.
The BMW 620d xDrive Gran Turismo features complex xDrive AWD and air suspension systems requiring expensive maintenance. Diesel particulate filter replacements can exceed $3,000. Insurance costs are high due to luxury classification and expensive parts. However, the B47 diesel engine is generally reliable. Limited U.S. availability means scarce parts and specialized service requirements increase ownership costs significantly.
