Flying Ace wroteDo you really think they sat around in a meeting and said "We should really try to use up the rest of the F chassis codes before moving to G" and someone responded "Well I guess that means we're going to have to product a 2 series active tourer M car"so in other words, they will cram in, dilute down and "differentiate" the M brand further by making a M for everyone?
LemonOne wroteYes. In fact, it will be the first implementation of 3/4-series version of CLAR on the market, as opposed to the old Z3/Z4s that were the derivatives of models already on sale. Mechanically, G22 will be its closest relative.I assume Z4 is based on 3er chassis?
Mikecom32 wroteYeah. More likely, it went like this:Do you really think they sat around in a meeting and said "We should really try to use up the rest of the F chassis codes before moving to G" and someone responded "Well I guess that means we're going to have to product a 2 series active tourer M car"
The chassis codes are dictated by what they produce, not the other way around.

...
F52 1er
DoggieHowser wroteThe latter is the sedan which is currently only in China but which is rumored to be coming to other Asian nations and some European nations as well. To avoid clutter, I didn’t add the sedan/coupe descriptors to any model. In a manner of speaking, you can think of those as the Series defaults (sedan for odds, coupe for evens).What’s the difference between the F40/F41 1er 3/5 door and the F52 1er?
marcva wroteNo, unfortunately. As you can see from the model list, the 2GC is a UKL vehicle, and BMW will not be doing UKL M proper vehicles for the foreseeable future (at least through the “G” generation, we can assume). The top model will presumably be an M235i xDrive M Performance offering.G89 M2 GC?
unc879wins wroteAs with the M5 and all other "G" generation M products, there will be a G80 M3 Competition model, too. And it should be available very near launch.2018 F80 ZCP vs 2020 G80
TheManager wroteThe OP contains everything currently known about the current and future G generation (plus current and future UKL) BMW products....so the 6 series will have the 6GT and nothing else?
tommytexter wroteNot necessarily as Li was an option before China ever seen a BMW.Long wheel base.
Particularly for Chinese Markert
