BMW has recently introduced its highly anticipated Gran Turismo concept car to the Middle East.

This new model, designed by Karim Habib, a BMW exterior designer of Lebanese origin, presents the vision of a unique four-door car - combining the exclusivity of a genuine luxury Gran Turismo with the thrill of a high-performance sports car.

This unique combination never before seen will offer drivers the opportunity to enjoy sheer driving pleasure, in a dimension unprecedented in the world of motoring.

"We are proud to present the exclusive concept car that only last month was confirmed by our board of management for production in the coming years. With this study of a four-door Gran Turismo, we are sharing the evolutionary development of our design language," said BMW Group Middle East managing director Phil Horton.

More than any other saloon in the past, the BMW Concept CS bears out all the highlights of optimum performance through the design of its body alone. The low-slung, dynamically stretched silhouette, the long engine compartment lid plus stylish lines and contours accentuating the rear-wheel drive technology are ideal for sports motoring.

Within its interior, the BMW Concept CS combines stylish luxury with the most uncompromising ambience full of class and value. The interior offers dynamism of a completely new standard, borne out by the combination of exclusive elegance and sophisticated refinement.

The BMW Concept CS is an invitation to active motoring, with the driver-oriented cockpit immediately showing the motorist that he or she is in control of everything happening at the wheel.

In presenting this new Concept Car, BMW has entered not only a brand-new segment of the market never occupied before, but also sets the milestone with a brand-new type of car: the four-door luxury Gran Turismo enters a new dimension of motoring.
