The BMW M2 Design Preview in Studio

The new BMW M2 delivers signature M performance in a highly concentrated form.

With its 338 kW/460 hp six-cylinder in-line engine, an optionally available six-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive, the second generation of the compact high-performance sports car promises unadulterated driving pleasure.

The debut of the new BMW M2 marks another highlight event in the model offensive celebrating the 50-year anniversary of BMW M GmbH, while making the first step into the world of its high-performance cars an even more enticing one.

Compact dimensions together with powertrain and chassis technology adapted from the BMW M3/BMW M4 are at the heart of a vehicle concept that endows the new edition of the two-door model with beguiling agility and handling that remain easily controllable even as the driver explores the car’s limits.

This distinct character profile also manifests itself in the expressive exterior design with its athletic coupé proportions.

The sophisticated control/operating concept for customising the vehicle setup also helps to produce a performance experience of remarkable intensity.

Thanks to these many attributes, the new BMW M2 continues the brand’s tradition of ultra-sporty models with compact dimensions that began in 1973 with the arrival of the BMW 2002 turbo.

It is also building on the success of its predecessor, which notched up nearly 60,000 sales worldwide.
