The 630d is loaded with a ton of safety tech

Safety and After Sales Service – The BMW 630d is extremely safe and has scored top marks at Euro NCAP. While BMW is yet to introduce the radar-based assistants, you still get the regular equipment like 6 airbags, ABS, traction control and ESP. Add to that a strong body structure, the 630d is as safe as it can get.

The 630d GT makes sense for people who want performance and space

Verdict – The 630d GT ticks all the right boxes for a proper luxury car. It has a rich cabin, impressive refinement, exceptional onboard technology and superb cabin space with high levels of comfort. It also comes across as a proper BMW with an intriguing diesel motor and very sorted dynamics. It might not have the visual appeal of the 5-Series nor is it as relaxing as the Mercedes Benz E-Class. But the 630d GT is a great all-rounder which will happily deliver it’s best on both weekdays and weekends and we think it is a strong contender in the premium luxury segment.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class or the BMW 6-Series GT? Choose one!

Testers’ Note:

“I see the BMW 6-Series GT as a more comfort oriented version of the 5-Series. I think it’s perfect for those who take the rear seat on weekdays and like to take the wheel on the weekends. The 6 GT feels quite roomy and spacious at the back and has more luggage space too for those getaways and airport runs. The extra weight does make its presence felt around the corners when you are pushing hard but the overall driving experience is smooth yet engaging.” Aariz Rizvi, Assistant Editor, MotorBeam.
“My favourite luxury sedan is the BMW 530d M-Sport with the mind-blowing performance and dynamics that it offers topped with the snazzy M-Sport looks. This why I also liked the 630d GT because it is similar to the 530d and yet so different. It offers a whole lot more practicality and can be the preferred choice for families who want a luxury car that offers a blend of performance and practicality.” Parth Gohil, Associate Editor, MotorBeam.
