Overview
- BMW’s US website briefly listed a 2027 M2 xDrive before the page was removed, providing the clearest sign yet an AWD variant is planned.
- BMW has not commented on the listing, as recent reporting revives long-running leaks that an M2 xDrive is in development.
- Production is widely reported to target mid-2026 at BMW’s San Luis Potosí plant in Mexico, with a global on-sale window likely in the second half of 2026.
- Coverage indicates the car would use the twin-turbo 3.0-litre straight-six with an automatic transmission only, with outputs either matching today’s M2 or potentially rising to about 530 hp, both unconfirmed.
- Analyses suggest the xDrive hardware would add roughly 100 pounds versus the RWD M2 and that a rear‑biased setup is expected, with the rear‑drive M2 remaining on sale.
