The new BMW M2

The debut of the new BMW M2 marks another highlight event in the celebration of the 50-year anniversary of BMW M GmbH. The Middle East and worldwide launch of the new BMW M2 will get underway in April 2023. 

The BMW M2 will be built alongside the new BMW 2 Series Coupé at the BMW Group’s San Luis Potosí plant in Mexico. With its 338 kW/460 hp six-cylinder in-line engine, the second generation of the compact high-performance sports car promises unmatched driving pleasure.

The engine’s power is relayed to the rear wheels via an eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic as standard. The new BMW M2 completes the sprint to 100 km/h (62 mph) from rest in 4.1 seconds with the eight-speed M Steptronic transmission and in 4.3 seconds when fitted with the six-speed manual gearbox. It is capable of powering from 0 to 200 km/h (124 mph) in just 13.5 seconds.
  
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.
