THE NEW BMW I8M 2026

-

 Price :- $160,000



Overview

Even though the current i8 hasn't lived up to the sporting intentions BMW had for it, that apparently hasn't put the German luxury brand off of high-dollar hybrid sports cars. Development of the next i8—we're a fan of calling it the i8 M, considering it should represent a significant performance improvement over the current model—is underway, and BMW's Vision M Next concept from mid-2019 is proof. A massive increase in power, a longer all-electric driving range, updated styling, and a more capable chassis are all expected to separate the i8 M from the model it will ultimately replace.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

The i8 M's plug-in hybrid powertrain is anticipated to follow the same basic setup as the current i8, which means an electric motor driving the front wheels and a mid-mounted gasoline engine and electric motor for the rear wheels.

In lieu of the i8's turbocharged 1.5-liter three-cylinder gas engine, BMW has said the new car will offer a turbocharged four-cylinder; the company also claims a total system output—gas and electric power combined—of 591 horsepower, which is far more than the i8's 369-hp output. This up-rated powertrain will help the i8 M compete with rivals such as the Lexus LC500h and the new Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray.

Range, Charging, and Battery Life

The previous generation i8's 18-mile electric driving range was unimpressive to say the least. BMW has been mum on details such as battery size but said the electric driving range for the Vision M Next concept was a claimed 62 miles. That means either BMW's engineers found a way to squeeze a lot more miles out of the current car's 11.6-kWh battery pack or they found space for a much larger unit. It's almost certainly the latter. More information will be available regarding the i8 M's battery, range, and charging capability closer to the car's on-sale date.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

Little is known about the i8 M's cabin so far, but we are hoping BMW addresses the i8's difficult ingress and egress by equipping the new car with front-hinged doors and a lower side sill to make the interior more easily accessible.


Like the previous car, the i8 M will be BMW's playground for future styling and should feature unique materials, cutting-edge features, and eye-popping designs. Storage and cargo capacity will likely remain limited, but a front trunk (or "frunk") may make an appearance to provide additional luggage space.

Infotainment and Connectivity

A lot can change in the world of in-car infotainment between now and 2026, so details about what might be offered in the i8 M are anyone's guess. In the Vision M Next concept, BMW showed off a futuristic take on infotainment that the company calls the Boost Pod; it consists of several glass screens and a head-up display to provide the driver access to car-related information and onboard entertainment features.

The New Bmw Z4 2024

New Bmw Z4 2024  Price :- $54,595 HIGHS Gutsy turbo powertrains, hushed cabin with the top up, summer-time open-top freedom. LOWS Not as driver-focused as other sports cars, all-wheel drive would be a nice option, stick shift costs extra. VERDICT Other sports cars will raise your heart rate higher when a twisty road beckons, but the Z4 makes up for its less focused nature with a comfortable, luxurious cabin and everyday practicality. Overview As the less-serious drop-top companion to the Toyota Supra, the 2024 BMW Z4 brings similar performance but with a sun-worshipping twist. The two-seat Bimmer roadster shares its platform with the famous-name Toyota sports car, but it's a different animal. It's powered by your choice of turbocharged BMW engines—either a 255-hp inline-four or a 382-hp inline-six—just like the Supra and comes only with rear-wheel drive. An eight-speed automatic is standard but a six-speed stick is optional on six-cylinder Z4s. The automatic does an excellent j...

THE NEW BMW M5 2025

 Price :- $120,00 Overview What good is a live concert without an audience? The thrilling next-generation BMW M5 sedan takes the stage in July 2024, with an upgraded powertrain that promises to bring people to their feet. The seventh iteration is complicated by a plug-in-hybrid setup borrowed from the  XM  SUV, but the added degree in electrical engineering pays off with an estimated 735 horsepower and 735 pound-feet of torque. As the wildest version of the  5-series  to date, the new M5 will gain a few hundred pounds, and larger brakes and rear-wheel steering will be required to handle the crazier output. We expect the fuel-burning side of the M5 to look a lot like the 627 horsepower V-8 from the defunct M5 CS, which would likely improve the  current generation's already wicked 2.8-second leap to 60 mph . Unfortunately, we're still too far from the expected July 2024 launch date for a list of complete specs, but will update this space as they become availa...
