BMW no longer has an ugly duckling in the premium compact car family, as production of the 3-Series Gran Turismo (GT) has ceased.

Part of a cost-cutting measure, according to Autocar, the decision comes not long after the company execs declared that demand for the model was still sufficient to keep it in the portfolio.

The automaker’s UK website no longer has the 3-Series GT, which was based on the previous F3X generation of the car, but the new 3-Series Saloon and Touring, available from £32,565 ($42,946) and £34,065 ($44,924) respectively. In Germany, on the other hand, the 3er liftback is still on sale, alongside the G20 sedan and G21 estate, and starts at €40,700 ($45,553), €2,850 ($3,190) more than the former and €1,300 ($1,455) more than the latter.

Review: Long Term Test Marks BMW 3-Series GT Out as Great Choice

A successor to the 3-Series GT is not being considered, as the more modern G2X generation of the 3-Series will continue to be offered in the saloon and estate body styles, namely the G20 and G21, as well as the long wheelbase G28, which is strictly aimed at the China.

Presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 2013 and facelifted three years later, the 3-Series GT (F34) was offered with four- and six-cylinder petrol and diesel engines, in rear- and all-wheel drive configurations. It was both longer and taller than the Saloon and Touring, and its wheelbase was shared with the F35 LWB sedan that was produced for the Chinese market, adding an extra 110 mm (4.3 in) between the two axles and, thus, giving it ample space, which nevertheless wasn’t enough to keep it in the lineup.
