The BMW German car maker has updated the luxury sports car of 2022 M8 competition. You can still get the M8 competition in three body styles (2-door coupes, 2-door copiolets, and 4-door gran coupe), share a 2.4-liter two-liter V8 engine which is the same as 617 horsepower and 553 pounds of torque.
However, the BMW press release said the V8 pumped 625 horsepower or 460 kW, and this made us think: 460 kW was 616.87 or 617 when rounded, so that three-fold numbers could become typo. But again, isn’t that good if there are eight more horses hiding under the M8 competition?
Nevertheless, V8 has a Gearbox Mytronic M. Steptronic which usually pushes the four wheels using the XDrive AWD BMW, enough to reach 60 mph of the stop in 3.2 seconds (coupe and gran coupe) or 3.3 seconds (cabriolet). Again, the acceleration numbers can become another print from BMW since the M8 competition out Gran Coupe rang with the same bell in three seconds.
In addition, BMW applies learning from M8 GTE racing cars to sharpen the new M8 chassis so you can expect Niftier handling, too. Style-wise, Competition 2022 M8 Receives a dark colored headlamp with a BMW laser light headlamp equipped with an adaptive angle and selective beam optimization. Other features include high gloss black grill frames, unique 20-inch alloy wheels, and a larger 12.3-inch infotainment system replacing a 10.25-inch screen from the outgoing model.
Inside, the M8 competition has a standard sports chair, genuine merino skin and alcantara coatings, head display with graphics, drive / parking, navigation with BMW maps, and the Harman Kardon surround system is present. The optional kit includes a carbon bucket seat that is heated and electrically adjusted with the M8 logo illuminated on the headrest.
The third style of the body of the BMW M8 2022 competition will arrive at the dealer starting at the end of March or April 2022. The price starts around $ 130,995 for the Coupe and Gran Coupe, while Cabriolet costs $ 140,495 (not including the destination cost of $ 995).
