Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

As German luxury automakers slice and dice traditional market segments, it's fair to say the 2019 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe is in a class of one. The 4 Series is essentially a coupe/convertible version of the ubiquitous 3 Series sedan, and the Gran Coupe further complicates the naming scheme by being a four-door variant of the 4 Series.

Pros
Hatchback body style makes it easy to load cargo
Stout performance with either engine
Upscale interior with easy-to-use controls
Well-balanced ride and handling

Cons
Available only with an automatic transmission
Less cargo space than closest hatchback competitors
Heavier and costlier than similar sedan competitors
Less backseat headroom than in the 3 Series sedan

A short stint behind the wheel is all it takes to fall in love and forgive its flaws.

Pros
Hot-blooded styling,
designer interior,
fun-loving driving dynamics.

Cons
Stingy storage cubbies,
inadequate backup camera,
untested long-term reliability.

By:

The 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia presents plenty of compelling reasons to jump ship from the “default” sports sedan brands.

Pros
So good to drive
Quadrifoglio is almost a Ferrari sedan
Gorgeous styling
Reasonable value
Many permutations available

Cons
Tight rear seat
Infotainment way behind
Rivals are more efficient
Some cheap bits inside
Reliability a big question mark
