VIDEO: THE BMW M2 IS COMING YOUR WAY. SIDEWAYS.

The most anticipated BMW M car finally shows its face!

BMW has finally released the BMW M2 across the world, which looks very close to the digital renders we’ve seen roaming around, and I gotta say, I’m not disappointed at all.

 

Just like the 1M, the new M2 has gained the muscular, mean, small and agile car look that M enthusiasts look forward to. As a successor to the 1M, which had a limited production number of 2,700 units (Later on boosted to 6,309 due to high demand), it’s still not clear if this will be a limited production model or if it will follow the same pattern of the 1M.

The BMW M2 will have a six-cylinder straight engine with BMW’s TwinPower Turbo technology pushing 270hp and 500Nm of torque. It has an optional seven-speed M Double Clutch Transmission (M DCT) – which can get you a 4.3 seconds 0-100km/h run – and a top speed electronically limited to 250km/h.

It’s pretty reasonable that BMW M didn’t make the M2 quicker than the M4, but timing the Nurbugring in 7mins 58secs makes it pretty close to the M4’s 7mins 52secs. I’m pretty sure M enthusiasts are happy – well I know I am –, but I think the 1M had a higher wow factor when it first came out than what the M2 is giving now. Lets hope the price isn’t a back-breaker.
