The extra power is not coming from a recuperation system.

The new wheel option is just a different color of the same wheel style.

anyone know if '25 is the LCI year or have to wait till '26 for some new headlights!

The G82/G80 LCI will be receiving HP bumps as well. I think 525HP for the comps.

Interesting thought because it could easily be do-able OEM if BMW wanted to. But honestly though, who isn't already aftermarket tuning their S58 to 700+ hp?

I heard it’s going to have an analog speedometer/tach, hvac controls and a volume dial too.

Screw the power increase, I'd hold off for these features.


Yeah right, I want to drive the car now, a lil more hp is not worth waiting for.

The BMW M2 xDrive Might Happen
As a final note, we’re getting more signals that an M2 xDrive will happen further down the line. When the rumor emerged a few months ago based on a leaked technical document, we said a decision had not been taken at that point. The latest intel indicates an all-paw M2 is a high probability. However, logic tells us that it’s not coming anytime soon as the M2 CS will likely be out first in mid-2025, so look for an all-wheel-drive version to join the portfolio in 2026 at the earliest.

Thank you! So it appears after CS, perhaps as ZCP and could come with choice of RWD/AWD 🤷🏼‍♂️ Remember seeing some speculating the CS could be xDrive, but that doesn’t make sense to me as they would probably attempt being as light as possible with CS.

I'd actually be curious to see this. I actually like the g80 nose, the g81 is my dream car.

First, so I can order it. Second, to watch all the boomers lose their mind about how its not longer a drivers car and yadda yadda yadda.

A: People who want a manufacturer’s powertrain warranty.

This suspicion is highly plausible.

ynguldyn provided some clarification in an earlier post, "The extra power is not coming from a recuperation system."

Furthermore the "round my numbers" comment made me reinterpret the power bump as nothing more than the same tune as the current base M3/4, 473hp. So basically, they are no longer detuning the S58 for the M2 and it will still have 406ft-lbs and still be offered with a MT.

Don't even joke about that!

Hmm, not a large portion of leasees anymore. BMW moved away from attractive leasing years ago.
