It has camouflage but it is official: this is the new BMW M8

One of the most talked about topics in the world of motor last week, in addition to the competition for the adventure of Fernando Alonso in the Indy 500 and the F1 Monaco Grand Prix, was the confirmation of the BMW 8 Series by the firm German We showed it in concept form with an aggressive, technological vehicle with a three-volume body and a two-door body.

The original BMW 8 Series was marketed during the 1990s with 8 and 12 cylinder engines, versions 840i and 850i. The price on the occasion market for a unit in good condition remains very high, and increasingly expensive. The case is that a few days ago we met the prototype of the new BMW 8 Series and now the brand shows us a future BMW M8 camouflaged but let us know many details.

If we still had doubts and did not finish believing that the German company was to launch a BMW 8 Series, this BMW M8 makes it clear that yes, they are serious. It is curious that only having shown some images of the prototype without offering details of importance show us the future M8. Of course, the BMW M8 also do not have data of importance as motorization, performance or dimensions.

"The creation and development of the BMW 8 Series and the M model go in parallel. The future BMW M8 will include the 8 Series genes and enrich your DNA with greater sportiness and an extra portion of dynamism, precision and agility. All this will allow to offer a driving experience of BMW M that perfectly meets the needs of our customers "; Said Frank van Meel, president of BMW M.

As we said before, there are no performance or power data. However, we expect to be around the 600 hp, not believing that it surpasses them. If we take hold of the newspaper library, not long ago BMW said that its models M would not exceed the barrier of the 600 CV, having to be associated with the automatic transmission.
