How BMW Structures the 2 Series Gran Coupe Lineup

The 2026 BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe is available in 3 trims: 228, 228 xDrive, M235 xDrive. The 228 is the entry point, and the M235 xDrive sits at the top of the range. All trims share the same platform and core engineering. What changes between them is features, comfort, and in some cases wheels and appearance.

Adjacent trims usually differ in tech and convenience features. Bigger jumps often include powertrain or capability changes. If you're still deciding between models, see the full BMW hub. If you're not sure which trim level to target, our how to pick a trim guide and packages vs. trims breakdown can help.
