Yes sure ... the question only is, what to come from M GmbH? At the time I saw this video for the first time, I instantly thought: "Uh ... he is for sure talking about the XM - or X8M"
So this would be a real let down to me! |
That would be the ultimate letdown if that would be the case.
However, if we look at the hints from
lemetier, the head of design's statements in the Supercarblondie video as well as the context of what they are talking about in that German YouTube video, it corresponds to more of a traditional M-type of car.
My guess (hope) is that it will be a special model based on a production platform, but with the P58 engine, transaxle transmission and hybrid technology. Like the test mule we saw last year at the Nürburgring.
After all, May 1st 2022 is the 50th anniversary of BMW M and the E9 3.0 CSL
