BMW M Motorsport Sweeps North American SRO Series Titles

BMW is preparing a comprehensive update to its lineup, featuring the 2028 BMW X5 adopting the Neue Klasse design language with a range of powertrains including hydrogen fuel cells, traditional internal combustion engines with electrification, and pure electric versions, expected by 2027. The BMW M8 Competition Gran Coupe, closely related to previous M5 generations and praised for its powerful V8 engine and driving experience, is set to be discontinued, marking the end of its production run since 2019. BMW M Motorsport teams have achieved significant success in GT racing series across North America with the BMW M4 GT3 EVO and M4 GT4 EVO, while the BMW Italia Ceccato Racing team narrowly missed securing the Italian GT Championship Sprint title. Enthusiasts and insiders continue to dream about future BMW M models, with desires for powerful, compact cars like an M2 CSL featuring both manual and automatic transmissions and enhanced engines. BMW also plans to revitalize its flagship sedan line with the 2027 BMW ALPINA 7 Series, promising luxury upgrades, all-wheel drive, and a price point positioned between traditional BMW models and ultra-luxury competitors like Rolls-Royce. Overall, BMW is advancing its portfolio with a mix of innovation in design, electrification, and performance, while bidding farewell to some iconic models.
