2020 BMW 228I GRAN COUPE XDRIVE

The auction lists the primary damage as “Left Front.” Stage 1’s assessment is that the visible evidence supports this claim, with the most significant exterior damage concentrated around the left-front bumper and hood area. The left-front bumper has severe damage. Its corner is torn, folded outward and downward, and partially detached, with a blue-painted section hanging below the bumper opening and dark inner material exposed. The bumper cover also has broad scrape marks, dark transfer marks, and abrasions across the left and center areas, including below the left headlamp and beside the grille. The lower chrome trim on the kidney grille is scraped and chipped. The hood has moderate damage along its front-left edge. It is visibly uneven, with a raised and irregular gap above the grille and left headlamp. Creasing or crease-like deformation and paint abrasion are present near the front-left corner. The visible findings do not establish the condition of components behind the damaged exterior panels. Inside the cabin, the driver airbag has deployed from the steering wheel. The left side-curtain airbag is also deployed along the roof and side-window area, including across the rear side window. These restraint-system deployments will require assessment as part of the repair. The VIN identifies this vehicle as a 2020 BMW 228i xDrive Gran Coupe, a four-door sedan with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine rated at 228 hp. The vehicle was manufactured by BMW AG in Germany, with the VIN plant information indicating Leipzig production.
