After the M4 CSL, the M division will appeal to enthusiasts with another sports car true to its core. Yes, we\u2019re talking about the M2 G87, which makes a brief appearance in a new teaser video released today. We are being told the blink-and-you-will-miss-it performance coupe is \u201ccoming soon,\u201d but it\u2019s unclear whether before or after the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/05\/23\/bmw-m3-touring-private-event\/\">M3 Touring\u2019s June debut<\/a> at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.<\/p>\n<p>We have extensively covered the new M2 in the past few months, so let\u2019s do a quick recap. Much like big-brother <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/05\/20\/bmw-m4-m-body-decal-option\/\">M4<\/a>, the smallest M car will come with a rear-wheel-drive configuration. The key difference in terms of traction between the two will be the lack of an optional xDrive as BMW will sell the car exclusively with RWD.<\/p>\n<p>As with the M4, buyers will get the choice between a manual and an automatic transmission. It will inherit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/04\/06\/toyota-grmn-supra-bmw-s58-engine\/\">S58 engine<\/a> from the larger coupe, but logic tells us the engineers will detune the twin-turbo 3.0-liter mill. Even so, the inline-six should still make up to 450 horsepower, which is a healthy number taking into account the base M4 has 473 hp while being bigger and therefore heavier.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_422192\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-422192\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><noscript><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-422192\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-830x830.jpg\" alt=\"2023 bmw m2 coupe 02 830x830\" width=\"830\" height=\"830\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-830x830.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-120x120.jpg 120w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of 2023 bmw m2 coupe 02 830x830\"\/><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-medium wp-image-422192\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20830%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-830x830.jpg\" alt=\"2023 bmw m2 coupe 02 830x830\" width=\"830\" height=\"830\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-830x830.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-120x120.jpg 120w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2023-bmw-m2-coupe-02.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of 2023 bmw m2 coupe 02 830x830\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-422192\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by instagram.com\/wilcoblok<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A previous teaser photo showed a camouflaged prototype wearing an assortment of M Performance parts, including a chunky rear wing and the center-mounted exhaust adapted from the M4. With the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/05\/23\/2023-bmw-2-series-idrive8\/\">2 Series Coupe already switching to iDrive 8<\/a>, it\u2019s safe to say the M2 will also pair a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster with a 14.9-inch touchscreen.<\/p>\n<p>To be assembled at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/04\/19\/2023-bmw-m2-will-be-produced-exclusively-at-san-luis-potosi-plant\/\">San Luis Potosi Plant in Mexico<\/a>, the G87 base model should be followed by hotter derivatives. Time will tell whether an M2 CSL is on the agenda or BMW will only do a Competition and\/or CS. The compact sports car could be among the last M cars to do away with electrification considering mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid drivetrains will become the norm in the coming years.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=QOP4ozMCcvA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BMW M \/ YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"THE M2 is on its way.
