BMW India first started the trend of bringing in the GT line with the 3 series and with some luck managed to sell it too. The GT basically stands for Grand Tourer and offers more ground clearance, a spacious back seat and better driving dynamics. Here, in this first look review, we will be covering the first look review of the BMW 6 Series GT.
Exteriors
The 6 Series GT is surely an eye-catching one with its long bonnet and all-LED headlights. The frameless windows really pull out a character and that coupe-like roofline gives it a sporting flair. At the rear, the active spoiler impresses to provide visual lightness and also reduces the lift when the GT is moving at higher speeds.
