It was almost two years ago BMWblog Only reported that there was a strong possibility of an M2 XDrive. The rumor mill has continued since then, but at least not yet appeared. Although we still don’t have a formal green light, we now have the next best. A senior employee told us at the weekend that a G87 M2 all -wheel drive could pass one day with a focus on “could”.
In an interview last weekend at Le Mans, BMW MS suggested research and development manager, Dirk Häcker, that an AWD M2 is an option. However, he made it clear that no final decision was made. Häcker explained that the G87 is still a relatively new model after it has been on the market for a little more than two years. This gives BMW a lot of time to include its compact M car beyond the M2 -CS recently onto the market.
When we asked why the larger competitive sports models (such as the M3 CS and M4 CS) XDrive, while the M2 CS is not the case, answered Hückker:
“I think [end of production] of the car. So there could also be ideas for the future an XDRIVE system, but there is no final decision. “
So, you have it: an M2 XDrive is clear Perhaps.
According to our sources, the Twin Turbo INLINE SIX could supply the front axle with electricity with electricity in just over a year. According to reports, BMW plans to start production in August 2026. If this happens, it will not mark the end of the current model for the rear bike tour. Enthusiasts can still buy the RWD version with a manual transmission. As you can imagine, the XDRIVE variant would only be automatically.
If the second generation M2 looks forward, it will stay until mid -2029. If the XDRIVE taste arrives next year, BMW still has time to introduce additional variants. This is speculative from our side, but we would certainly not say no to an M2 -CSL. Let’s not forget that there is a precedent in which M secretly built an M2-CSL of the F87 generation as a unique prototype.
We could be ahead, but Logic suggests that an M2 XDRIVE is not the last spicy view of the G87.
