BMW M8

The BMW M8 is the top class of the BMW 8 Series (G15) marketed under the Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, Germany. It was introduced in June 2019. The M8 was initially vailable in 2 different body styles; the two-door convertible (F91 model code) and two-door coupe (F92 model code). In October 2019 a four-door sedan body style was added to the lineup. The M8 is powered by the BMW S63 twin-turbocharged V8 engine shared with the BMW M5 (F90).

It comes with 2-door convertible and 2-door coupe body styles. GTE BMW revived the 8 Series nameplate by introducing the M8 which replaced the M6 GTLM at the end of the 2017 season of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, leading to theory about a production equivalent to the racing car. BMW introduced the M8 Gran Coupé Concept, at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show, which previewed a high performance four-door variant of the Concept 8 Series introduced alongside the M8 GTE at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show.

The BMW M8 is powered by the BMW S63 twin-turbocharged V8 engine which was also used in the M5, X5M and X6M models. This engine is estimated at 441 kW (591 hp) at 6,000 rpm and 750 N⋅m (553 lb⋅ft) in the standard M8 model,along with peak power increasing to 460 kW (617 hp) at 6,000 rpm, while torque remains the same for the M8 Competition model.

Performance figures include a 0–100 km/h (62 mph) acceleration time of 3.3 seconds (3.2 seconds for the M8 Competition), 0–200 km/h (124 mph) acceleration time of 10.8 seconds (10.6 seconds for the M8 Competition) and a limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). The BMW M8 top speed can be raised to 305 km/h (190 mph) with the optional M Driver's package which adds up high speed rated tyres to the car.
