BMW Authoritatively Precludes (For the present) M2 Contest, Individual Varieties Coming
Since the second-age BMW M2 was disclosed in October 2022, fans have been finding out if more power is anticipated a potential Contest model. All things considered, the G87 utilizes a similar twin-super, inline-six motor as the M4. The greater sibling's 3.0-liter can create as much as 560 hp in its most elevated condition of tune - as found in the uncommon 3.0 CSL - so 100 hp in excess of a base M2.
In any case, it won't work out. Indeed, essentially not soon. Our partners at BimmerToday asked BMW M2 project director Markus Schröder about the possibilities of a more powerful G87. He said it's not on the plan for now, which is not really a shock since the standard model's worldwide send off will not occur until April.
The assertion affirms a report BMWCARS distributed days after the new M2 was formally uncovered in which we said a Contest spec G87 isn't going on. Nonetheless, sources near Munich have let us know a little power climb is logical on the plan and ought to be applied later in the existence cycle. Rationale lets us know we shouldn't expect a huge knock in yield since the child M would wind up tearing up deals of the M4.
BMW says no M2 xDrive, however…
During a similar meeting with the German magazine Bimmer Today, Markus Schröder precluded a M2 xDrive. As you might review, an all-wheel-drive form supposedly appeared in an inner report in August 2022, months before the G87's true presentation. Yet, assuming we were wagering individuals, we would put our cash on a M2 xDrive later in its lifecycle. Will that be called a M2 Contest xDrive? It is not yet clear.
However, we truly do expect seeing another BMW M2 CS (G87 age). The sportscar would follow a similar recipe as the wide range of various CS models - more power, one of a kind tones, a lot of carbon fiber.
BMW Individual Tones Coming
Somewhere else, the lead engineer affirmed more tones are coming, including matte Frozen paints from the Singular index. Nonetheless, the San Luis Potosi in Mexico where the M2 is only made isn't at this point prepared for the full exhibit of Individual tones. In the mean time, the G87 must be had in this Toronto Red, or in one of the accompanying four shades: Brooklyn Dark, Sapphire Dark, High White, and the elite Zandvoort Blue.
