As with the regular coupe, the GC version of the M850i is distinguished on the outside by model-specific elements like the beefier bumpers, bigger wheels and darker chrome trim.

The current-generation BMW 8 Series will have more members than ever – and we’re not talking about engine variants only, but about bodystyles too.


Besides the already-unveiled coupe (G14) and convertible (G15) models, the 8 Series will also spawn a Gran Coupe body style (G16). To top it all off, the 8 Series Coupe and 8 Series Gran Coupe will also be available with the range-topping M8 treatment. Now, we’ve already seen spy photos of the four-door coupe but this latest set is the most revealing yet.

Whereas in previous sightings the car was almost completely camouflaged, it has now shed the disguise from the A-pillars all the way to the nose. The spy photos here show both the base and the higher-performance M850i xDrive, with the latter spotted during cold weather testing in Scandinavia.
In fairness, we didn’t expect the 8 Series Gran Coupe would feature a different snout than its two-door siblings and the photos prove we weren’t wrong. The headlights and kidney grille are identical but the bumper does feature a different design with a much longer lower grille.

The rest of the car remains camouflaged but the contours of the bodywork are visible. The muscular rear haunches and the sculpted trunk lid are the most obvious. As for the interior, expect it to offer more passenger space thanks to the added cabin length and hopefully more headroom than the two-door coupe.
