THE NEW BMW M8 AUTOMOBILES.

The BMW M8 automobiles are all about highly emotive, desirable and sporting luxury high-performance. The targeted refreshing in spring 2022 will include eight new exterior colours, a new wheel design and, in the interior, a high-resolution Control Display now measuring 12.3 inches. At the start of 2022, the year marking the 50th anniversary of BMW M GmbH, customers can also take advantage of a limited-time offer to have their BMW M8 models fitted with a special emblem at the front, rear and on the wheel hubs. Featuring three colours, this evokes the BMW Motorsport emblem from the early 1970s.

The driver and front passenger enjoy a sporty, low seating position. The M Sport seats included as standard come with numerous electric adjustment options including a Memory function. Seats with integrated, illuminated M logos and the full-leather dashboard and door trim panels underline the interior’s sporty and luxurious appearance. The extended Alcantara Bicolour design for both the standard M Sport seats and the optional M Carbon bucket seats is a brand new equipment feature. It includes, for the first time, an Alcantara-covered instrument panel upper.

The new Alcantara Bicolour design will come as standard for all BMW M8 models – both for the standard M Sport seats and the optional M Carbon bucket seats. Another standard feature for the BMW M8 Gran Coupé is the 4 zone air conditioning system. BMW M8 customers can create a particularly eye-catching look with the exclusive M Carbon exterior package. This uses exposed high-tech carbon material to highlight elements such as the Air Curtains on the sides of the front bumper, the exterior mirror caps, the M rear spoiler and the rear diffuser. Moreover, the new BMW M8 models can now be ordered in eight new exterior colours. These include the metallic Skyscraper Grey paint and various Frozen finishes such as BMW Individual Frozen Tanzanite Blue and BMW Individual Frozen Deep Green.

The M xDrive all-wheel drive system included as standard is a key factor contributing to the vehicle’s extraordinary directional stability and superior traction. Its rear-wheel bias makes it suitable for extremely dynamic driving.

In its default 4WD setting, it effectively only involves the front axle once the rear wheels have reached their traction limits and require support from the front. The supremely flexible, fully variable torque split of this all-wheel drive system makes the entire range of new BMW M8 model variants easy to control at all times, even when employing a very high-powered, sporty driving style.

Drivers can also adapt the M xDrive’s power distribution according to their personal preferences: from the 4WD default setting (all-wheel drive biased to the rear) to the 4WD Sport mode (more torque to the rear axle, allows drifting) and, with the DSC switched off, a rear-wheel-drive-only 2WD mode for use on the track.
