Trunk dimensions BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe

The trunk of the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe 2017 offers a volume of about 17 cu ft, which increases to approximately 45.9 cu ft when the rear seats are folded down.

The rear bench is split in a 40:20:40 ratio, allowing flexibility for transporting larger items. The interior design is high-quality, with a practical loading edge that facilitates loading and unloading.

The trunk dimensions vary slightly within the model range, but the shape remains consistently sporty and functional. The rear seat also provides a comfortable seating position, enhancing passenger comfort.

The combination of stylish design and practical features makes the trunk of the 4 Series Gran Coupe a well-thought-out solution for everyday use and travel.

Model Information

The BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe is a sporty four-door coupe that offers a combination of elegance and dynamic driving performance. It was first introduced in 2014 and has since established itself as a popular choice in the premium segment.

The latest series of the 4 Series Gran Coupe features a distinctive design, advanced technology, and a variety of powerful engines. The interior offers high-quality comfort and modern infotainment systems that enhance the driving experience.

Variants of the Same Series

Within the BMW 4 Series lineup, there are various variants that should not be confused. These include the 4 Series Coupe, the 4 Series Convertible, and the 4 Series Gran Coupe.

While the Coupe offers a sporty silhouette with two doors, the Gran Coupe combines sporty characteristics with the practicality of a four-door vehicle. The Convertible, on the other hand, provides an open driving experience. Each variant has its own features tailored to different buyer needs and preferences.

Yearly Differences

The first generation of the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe was introduced in 2014, with several facelifts and model changes in the following years. The second generation was presented in 2020, with changes to the body and dimensions.

These changes also affected the trunk dimensions, with the volume slightly increasing compared to the first generation. It is important to compare specific model years to understand the exact differences in dimensions.

Direct Competition

In the same price class and size, the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe competes with models such as the Audi A5 Sportback and the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe.

The Audi A5 Sportback offers a trunk volume of about 17 cu ft, while the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe provides slightly less space at around 15.9 cu ft. These differences in trunk volume can be decisive for buyers who value cargo space.

More Affordable Alternatives

More affordable alternatives with similar trunk dimensions include the Ford Mondeo and the Skoda Superb. The Ford Mondeo offers a trunk volume of about 19.4 cu ft, making it an attractive option for buyers who need a lot of cargo space.

The Skoda Superb also has a large trunk volume of about 22.1 cu ft. Both models offer good value for money and are capable of meeting similar transport needs as the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe.

Trunk Volume

The manufacturer specifies a trunk volume of 16.6 cu ft (manufacturer's data). The package also states that this value is about 11.9% above average and that the trunk accounts for approximately 7.4% of the total vehicle volume (1 percentage point more than usual).

Practical tests and other data show differing values: The standard usable volume is sometimes given as 14.5 cu ft. With the removable, two-part cargo cover, an additional approx. 2.5 cu ft can be used or alternatively about ten beverage crates can be loaded.

When folding down the rear seatbacks, the volumes are:
- up to window sill height: 28.3 cu ft
- loaded up to roof height: 42.4 cu ft

Important for everyday use: Manufacturer and measurement values can differ (e.g., different measuring methods, covers, or usable space shapes).

Vehicle Size and Parking Friendliness

Dimensions: 188.2 in length, 72.8 in width, 56.7 in height.

  • Compared to an average car, the 4 Series Gran Coupe is 8.7 in longer, nearly the same width, and 4.7 in lower – sporty silhouette, less headroom.
  • Compared to a standard parking space, only 8.7 in of length clearance and 25.6 in side clearance remain. Parking is possible but with less margin.
  • The lower body shape improves aerodynamics and handling but makes getting in more difficult and can limit loading of large, tall items (e.g., boxes, tall suitcases).

Trunk Usability and Flexibility

  • Electric tailgate with keyless and foot-opening function – practical when hands are full.
  • Loading height: the loading edge is at 27.6 in above street level; the loading floor is about 6.7 in below the loading edge. This makes loading and unloading heavy items more cumbersome.
  • The tailgate offers a wide opening, allowing bulky items to be loaded easily. Note: A locking bar protrudes externally and can interfere when lifting.
  • Rear seatbacks: three-part and foldable, creating an almost flat loading surface. Folding requires higher force; straps can get pinched, and there is no release from the trunk side.
  • Trunk interior: two storage nets and a hook; however, no underfloor storage – a simple organizational plus is missing.
  • Rear visibility is limited by wide roof pillars and high window line, which can make maneuvering and parking more difficult.

Practical consequences for everyday use: For normal shopping and luggage for weekend trips, the volume is very good. For very tall or heavy items, the high loading edge and lowered loading floor are disadvantages. The option to expand to up to 42.4 cu ft loaded to roof height provides a lot of flexibility when needed.

General Model Information

Familiarity: The BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe is established in the premium compact/mid-size segment — sporty appearance combined with sedan comfort.

Special Features / Characteristics:

  • Sporty low body (lower height), wide roof pillars, high window line (limited rear visibility).
  • Standard LED taillights; laser headlights are available but without cleaning system (not even as an option).
  • Comfort access/keyless with foot sensor and electric tailgate – practical but reportedly vulnerable to range extenders (security concerns with keyless systems).
  • Everyday details: no trunk release, three-part rear bench, no underfloor storage solution.

Value for Money: As a vehicle in the premium segment, the 4 Series Gran Coupe offers a good space/shape combination and high-quality equipment; some useful features (e.g., better visibility, safer keyless solutions, or underfloor storage) are missing or only available at extra cost.

The result is a solid but not flawless offering in the premium environment.

Competitors: Main competitors are the Audi A5 Sportback and the Mercedes-Benz CLA (or CLA Coupe / CLA Shooting Brake depending on market positioning). Other alternatives in the competitive environment include vehicles like the Kia Stinger or (across segments) models with similar cargo capacity.
