2024 marked the 13th consecutive year of record-breaking sales for BMW M, with 206,582 vehicles delivered to customers. Through September this year, shipments are up 7.9%, suggesting the performance division is on track for yet another successful year. What makes these achievements even more impressive is that they’ve been reached without a fully electric M

When BMW said the next M3 would be powered by a “new type of six-cylinder engine,” some outlets jumped to speculate it might be a V6. We quickly dismissed the rumor, reporting instead that the sports sedan would stick with its hallmark inline-six. Sure enough, the “G84” won’t mess with a winning formula. We spoke

ALPINA occupies a special slice of BMW history and enthusiasm. Perhaps no better showcase for the brand is the ALPINA: 60 Years of Excellence exhibit at The Ultimate Driving Museum in Greer, South Carolina.

BMWBLOG spoke with M boss Frank van Meel at the 2025 Japan Mobility Show about the forbidden fruit. Essentially, it all came down to deciding

BMW gave us all wallpaper material in mid-2024 when it unveiled the stunning Concept Skytop. A few months later, the company announced plans for a production version limited to just 50 cars. However, a proper reveal of the M8-based targa beauty in its final form has yet to take place. With no actual premiere seemingly

BMW prefers to keep some mystery around just how exclusive its latest Competition Sport models are. In the past, the M division would disclose production numbers from the outset, but not anymore. With every new CS model launch, we’re told production is limited, yet no exact figure is given. That was the case with the

The “Competition” badge has quietly disappeared from BMW M’s lineup. For years, it signified the sharper, more focused version of an already fast car — a way to separate the purist’s choice from the regular M model. But that distinction no longer makes sense. During our interview at the 2025 Tokyo Motor Show, BMW M
