BMW iM2 Coming With Over 1,300 Horsepower

No matter how you feel about its recent styling choices, BMW is still one of the greatest manufacturers of sports cars out there. Cars like theBMW M2 CSare reminders of why a simple recipe of a rear-wheel-drive layout and a six-cylinder engine under the hood is the best. But, as good as cars like that are, manufacturers have had to start considering an electric future, and that includes BMW's M Division. We've heard rumors in the past ofan electric M5, we've seen what an米-enhanced i4might look like, and now it's time to turn our attention to an iM2, orelectric version of the M2.

We first found out about such a vehicleback in 2017, but now there are new rumors and they're really exciting. Next year,BMW M celebrates its 50th birthday, and according toCar Magazine,这一事件将会看到宝马展示一个全新的,all-electric performance coupe called the iM2, and get this - it'll have 1,000 kilowatts. Converted to horsepower, that's a whopping 1,341 ponies. Now we must point out that these rumors and figures have not yet been verified by anyone at BMW, but it is possible thatCar Magazinehas an exclusive story. Then again, over 1,000 hp in a car as small as the M2 seems more than a little excessive.
