How it scores for you10 scores
Polarizing nose, persuasive everything else — pace, polish, and modern tech in a coupe that keeps rear seats and trunk strictly secondary.
Recalled about as often as cars of the same model years; 6 of its 13 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.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $2,700 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 48% of cars we track.
12 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 40% of other coupes we track.
Adults fit in back for short hops only; the cabin is driver-focused and snug.
From 430i to M4, the G22 is fast, planted, and precise; one of the best-handling coupes short of true sports cars.
Big displays, capable driver aids, and modern iDrive; the polarizing grille bought a thoroughly current cabin.
Surprisingly refined cruiser for a sport coupe; firm ride and low seats remain part of the deal.
Luxury brands like BMW tend to lose value faster than average.
No published tow rating; all- or four-wheel drive available.
