BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupé

Automobiles

The BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupé is a concept car that BMW presented in 2013 at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este, built in collaboration with the Turin coachbuilder Pininfarina and the first vehicle the two companies made together. It was built to anticipate the new BMW 8 Series and is a two-door coupé with generous external dimensions and a very long wheelbase relative to its volumes, powered by a 6.0 litre twin-turbocharged V12 engine developed by BMW. Pininfarina reinterpreted BMW traits such as the double kidney grille and the Hofmeister kink, giving the front slim LED headlights and a shark-nose grille that nods to BMW models of the 1970s and 1980s. The cabin seats four and uses extensive leather and New Zealand kauri wood, while the car rides on 21-inch wheels and has a quad exhaust. For its styling it won the 2013 Good Design Award.
