How it scores for you10 scores
A driver's coupe first and last — B58 muscle and superb balance, paid for with token rear seats and a 10-cubic-foot trunk.
Reliability56

Recalled about half as often as cars of the same model years; 2 of its 5 recalls were serious. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Adjusted +4 points for its wider reputation.

Safety50

Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.

Running costs52

About $2,600 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 52% of cars we track.

Cargo & utility40

10 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 40% of other coupes we track.

Passenger space22

Slightly roomier than before, yet still a 2+2 with tight rear quarters and a small 10 cu ft trunk.

Driving fun84

M240i's B58 and the taut RWD chassis deliver near-M pace; among the most engaging compacts on sale.

Tech65

Modern iDrive with large screens and solid driver aids — a clear step over the F22, if short of BMW's newest OS8/9 cars.

Comfort55

Well built and reasonably quiet for a sport coupe, but the ride is firm and rear ingress awkward.

Value retention40

Luxury brands like BMW tend to lose value faster than average.

Capability30

No published tow rating; all- or four-wheel drive available.
