Forward of the international community expose tomorrow at BMW M Fest, the handles have appear off the second-era BMW M2.

We realized the styling would be a tiny controversial with all the leaks we have found but these official press photographs with the automobile completed in Toronto Red could be switching very a couple of minds.

Under that reasonably massive hood sits the S58 engine delivering 453 hp (338 kW) and 550 Nm (406 lb-ft) of torque to the rear wheels. BMW offers its 8-velocity M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic as standard. A six-pace handbook gearbox is available as an selection for anyone trying to find a unique efficiency practical experience.

When fitted with the do-it-you gearbox, the M2 will just take 4.3 seconds to hit 100 km/h (62 mph) even though the M Steptronic will get you there .2 seconds more quickly. The restricted top speed of the new BMW M2 can be lifted from 250 km/h to 285 km/h by specifying the optional M Driver’s Package deal.

This new M2 is a minimal bit much larger than its predecessor with an improve in duration of 10 cm (4.1 inches) and width of 3 cm (1.3 inches). It is also lower by .7cm (.3 inches) although the tracks have been widened to match the M4.

Styling intelligent you will see the new twin kidney grille, which sits higher than a a few-sectioned entrance apron. These openings give cooling abilities for different powertrain parts and the brakes. The rear characteristics a bold bumper and a bolder diffuser that residences the car’s quad tailpipes.

At start, the M2 will be readily available in just 5 colors: Alpine White, Sapphire metallic, Brooklyn Grey metallic, Toronto Purple metallic, and new Zandvoort Blue (exclusive to the 2023 M2). Staggered 19-inch entrance and 20-inch rear gentle-alloy jet black wheels are standard, but BMW will offer the exact layout in a bi-colour complete at no further price. BMW can make its Adaptive M Suspension and Energetic M Differential common equipment.

Hop inside of and you will be greeted with the latest Curved Exhibit as nicely as some freshly intended M Activity seats with an illuminated M headrest symbol. BMW will present its M Carbon bucket seats as an alternative for the very first time, component of the Carbon Package deal, which also contains the M Carbon roof that decreases the car’s excess weight and lowers its centre gravity.
