There’s no mistaking the BMW M8 Competition; the coupé, convertible, and gran coupé all stand out with their blend of sublime performance, captivating luxury and commanding presence. In an update to sharpen the profile of this high-performance luxury sports car, BMW introduces design modifications and upgrades for their control and operation technology.
Engineered to deliver an exhilarating driving experience, the V8 engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology develops a maximum output of 460 kW/625 hp and peak torque of 750 Nm (553 lb-ft). In M fashion, expect high levels of torque over a wide rpm band, while an eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic and the M xDrive all-wheel-drive system channels optimum power to the road in a harmonious mix of dynamism, agility and precision. 0 to 100 km/h takes just 3.2 seconds, and only 0.1 sec more in the convertible.
