The upcoming 6 Series Gran Coupe's exterior design has apparently been revealed in these renderings found in a BMW patent filing. This design remains fairly close to the BMW Concept Gran Coupe revealed a year ago at the Beijing Autoshow.

The front fascia loses some of its more aggressive styling bits such as the aggressive side intake inlets in favor of the production 6-series bumper. The wheels have also been sized down for practical purposes.

Expect the 6 Series Gran Coupe to feature the same range of engines as the current 6-series coupe and convertible.

Based on previously info, we've tentatively pegged its debut to be sometime mid-next year.

Update, according to SCOTT26:

The Patent images were uploaded prior to the Concept. So these are at least two years old.
The BMW management insisted on some visual changes to differentiate the Gran Coupe from the Coupe and Cabrio models.
