BMW Motorsport is ready to turn heads at Daytona with a significantly refreshed M Hybrid V8 LMDh hypercar.

BMW has confirmed that its upcoming 2027 M3 electric will feature simulated gear changes, joining a trend that began with the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N and which Porsche will likely follow with its electric Cayenne. During a technical workshop, BMW M engineers revealed that the electric M will offer “emulated gear shifting in certain modes”

2025 wasn’t necessarily a great year for BMW, but the past 12 months were even tougher for its main rivals. Munich saw deliveries slip by 1.4% to 2,169,761 vehicles, still enough to retain the luxury sales crown. Earlier this week, Mercedes announced a 9% decline to 1,800,800 units.

The writing had been on the wall for quite some time, and now it’s official: BMW has retired the X4.

Still, keeping manuals alive is becoming increasingly difficult as ever more sophisticated driver-assistance systems tend to work best with automatics. Declining interest in performance cars with a manual gearbox only adds to the challenge. A

These are some of the most exciting times for BMW fans. Between now and the end of next year, nearly the entire lineup will be updated. Some models are switching to a new generation, while others are receiving a mid-cycle facelift. The 5 Series and M5 fall into the latter category, with their LCI models

Traditional auto shows may be past their prime, but they still hold enough relevance for automakers. BMW kicked off the new year by hosting the Asia-Pacific premiere of the Skytop at the Singapore Motorshow 2026.
