Amongst other models ready to be unveiled at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, the BMW German based carmaker has also launched the BMW 2-Series Gran Tourer, which is now completing the 2-Series lineup.

The model is based on the same UKL Platform also used on the BMW vehicles and will underpin a front-wheel drive layout, leaving room inside for the third seat row. The model is actually an extended version of the previous one, coming with a lot of features just like the 2-Series Active Tourer.

Now, the most interesting part about the BMW 2-Series Gran Tourer is that it will come with a wide array of three- and four-cylinder units, closely followed by an xDrive version as well. The first to start with is the 219i, which will underpin a 1.5-liter TwinPower three-cylinder unit, developing 136 horsepower and 220 Nm of torque.

Next, the 220i version is coming with the 2.0-liter TwinPower Turbo four-cylinder, outputting 192 horsepower and 280 Nm of torque, jumping from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.6 seconds. Other engines follow, like the three diesels, set up for the 216d, which will receive the 1.5-liter TwinPower Turbo three-cylinder, with 116 horsepower and 270 Nm of torque, the 218d with the 2.0-liter TwinPower Turbo four-cylinder, as well as the 220d xDrive, with the same 2.0-liter unit, which develops 190 horsepower and 400 Nm of torque.

The pricing details on the BMW 2-Series Gran Tourer will be set in a couple of weeks, until then enjoy the photo gallery with the family car, being showcased at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show!
