The M240i is this time a slightly larger and certainly more modern-looking coupe - it has to be a coupe because there's no Convertible body style option this time round. The Coupe we're left with is now 4,537mm long and 1,838mm wide but is 28mm shorter than its predecessor, standing 1,390mm tall. M240i-spec gets you 19-inch M Double Spoke bi-colour alloy wheels and a whole range of exterior features finished in Cerium Grey, including the exhaust tailpipe finishers, the front bumper air inlet embellishers, the front grille frame, the exterior mirror caps and the badge work. There's also High-Gloss Shadowline exterior trim, M Sport exterior styling and a colour-coded M Sport rear spoiler.
Inside, the M240i is set apart by front M Sport seats trimmed in Vernasca leather, M seat belts and an M Sport leather steering wheel. As with other 2 Series Coupe models, you get a driver-focused dashboard which shares much with 3 and 4 Series models, pairing a 12.3-inch centre screen with a 10.25-inch digital instrument panel, complete with M Sport graphics.. A 51mm wheelbase length increase means there's more space in the back than they used to be. And there's a decently-sized 390-litre boot, extendable with a folding backrest.
