The 2018 BMW 6 Series GT is the Bavarian manufacturer's new luxury car that's also quite practical. It features a raft of improvements over other BMW GT cars such as  the 5 Series GT as well as up to date technology. We will be driving the India-bound car soon, meanwhile, this is what the car looks like.

he new BMW 6 Series GT gains some of the design elements that appeared on the new 7 Series. This body uses more aluminium than before and BMW says that's one of the primary reasons why the new BMW 6 Series GT is 150kg lighter than before

The new kidney grille with has active elements for greater aerodynamic efficiency

The bootlid - operated electrically as standard - has been lowered and its sill is now flush with the lower boot floor for easier access

The BMW 630d gets the 265PS/620Nm version of the 2,993cc inline-six diesel. This will take the car to 100kmph in 6.1 seconds and the top speed is 250kmph. All-wheel drive models are rated 0.1s quicker in the run to 100kmph

The new elements include the 10.25 inch high resolution touchscreen in the middle with the latest iDrive controller. BMW does have a full raft of systems that it clubs under the Connected services

The smart new layout is still slightly driver-focussed but very much the current BMW layout theme

The rear bench folds 40:20:40 at the touch of a button in the boot to extend the 110l larger boot (610l now, 1800l with seats folded) considerably

You can also opt for electrically operated, reclining rear seats if you like

The BMW 6 Series GT uses the double-wishbone front suspension configuration with a five-link rear mounted on its own subframe for control as well as insulation for the cabin. It gets auto-levelling rear axle air suspension as standard. This two-axle air suspension along with dynamic damping, active roll stabilisation and standard active steering as optional add-ons

The BMW 6 Series GT is most likely going to be at the 2018 Delhi Auto Expo but whether it be launched or not is yet to be seen. What India is likely to get is the 640d GT with a lot of standard features and a long list of optional equipment
