We anticipate that this will include U.S. dealerships by the end of 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Body and suspension&nbsp;changes on the 6 Series GT<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2018 BMW 6 Series Gran Turismo will drop approximately 330 pounds, and get a little longer and shorter than previous generations. A self-leveling air suspension will come standard at the rear axle, while an Adaptive suspension with Dynamic Damper Control will be available. This elite suspension option will allow drivers to manually raise and lower the 6 Series GT&#8217;s ride height. This model will come with a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine in the U.S. that will offer 335 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. Other <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dealerfireblog.com\/certifiedautoplex\/2017-bmw-5-series-engine-options\/\">engine options<\/a> will be available for international release. We may see them in the U.S. later in the model year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/133\/2017\/06\/07140150\/2018_BMW_6_Series_Gran_Turismo_B03_o.jpg\" alt=\"rear view of the 2018 BMW 6 Series Gran Turismo\" class=\"wp-image-3111\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/133\/2017\/06\/07140150\/2018_BMW_6_Series_Gran_Turismo_B03_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/133\/2017\/06\/07140150\/2018_BMW_6_Series_Gran_Turismo_B03_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/133\/2017\/06\/07140152\/2018_BMW_6_Series_Gran_Turismo_B02_o.jpg\" alt=\"Tire of the 2018 BMW 6 Series Gran Turismo\" class=\"wp-image-3112\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/133\/2017\/06\/07140152\/2018_BMW_6_Series_Gran_Turismo_B02_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/133\/2017\/06\/07140152\/2018_BMW_6_Series_Gran_Turismo_B02_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"one_half\">\n<h3>6 Series Driver Assistance Features<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Lane keeping assistance<\/li>\n<li>Cross traffic warnings<\/li>\n<li>Steering and lane control assistant<\/li>\n<li>Crossroads and wrong way warnings<\/li>\n<li>Evasion aid<\/li>\n<li>Collision and Pedestrian warnings<\/li>\n<li>Active Cruise Control<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"one_half_last\">\n<h3>Available Technology Highlights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Wi-Fi hotspot<\/li>\n<li>Parking and Traffic Information<\/li>\n<li>Online Entertainment<\/li>\n<li>Head up display<\/li>\n<li>Infotainment gesture controls<\/li>\n<li>10.25 inch touchscreen with voice control systems<\/li>\n<li>Driver&#8217;s seat with eight massage programs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Explore<a href=\"https:\/\/www.certifiedautoplex.com\/used-bmw-dallas-tx\"> pre-owned BMW models<\/a> in Carrollton TX here at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.certifiedautoplex.com\/\">Certified Autoplex<\/a> near Dallas-Fort Worth to get a premium BMW vehicle for a less-than-new price.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new BMW 6 Series Gran Turismo has just been announced, and we are excited by the possibilities contained in this elegant luxury model.
