We’ve already seen a couple of BMW M235i reviews so far but the one Autoguide published also has a video and therefore, deserves an honorable mention.
Just like all the guys before them, the Autoguide crew travelled to Las Vegas and its Motor Speedway, to see what the deal was with BMW’s latest Coupe and the M Performance sub-brand.

The M235i is equipped with a 3-liter turbocharged engine that makes 326 HP and 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) of torque and either a manual 6-speed gearbox (same as the one on the new M3) or an automatic 8-speed ZF unit that we’ve been getting used to.

On the road, the car feels planted and ready to do some damage, the engine delivering the perfect, smooth power we’ve been accustomed to, whilst the chassis feels a lot stronger and tighter than in the hatch.

Prices start at $33,025 for the 228i version and $44,025 for the M235i, which makes this model an even more attractive offer compared to its CLA45 AMG rival that starts at $47,450.
