BMW M2 G87: ¿M xDrive como opción de tracción total a partir de 2026?
Con el nuevo BMW M2 (G87) , M GmbH ha creado un paquete que inspira a muchos fanáticos del puro placer de conducir: distribución equilibrada del peso, tracción trasera, un potente seis cilindros en línea y, si lo desea, incluso manual. caja de cambios de seis velocidades! Sin embargo, en vista de la potencia actual de 460 hp, también hay clientes que prefieren tener tracción total en su automóvil en lugar de tracción trasera pura. Dado que la tecnología correspondiente en forma de M xDrive ya se utiliza en los modelos M3 y M4 técnicamente muy relacionados, un BMW M2 xDrive sería un ejercicio relativamente fácil para los técnicos de Garching.
Si bien la integración de la tracción total daría como resultado un peso ligeramente mayor, a cambio, los conductores de un M2 con tracción total también recibieron una aceleración considerablemente mejor desde parado y una tracción notablemente mayor al salir de las curvas. Al igual que en el M3 y el M4, la tracción total también se puede desactivar aquí, de modo que el M xDrive se puede cambiar a tracción trasera pura en cualquier momento para divertirse derrapando ocasionalmente al cambiar al modo 2WD. Las consideraciones correspondientes dentro de M GmbH ahora están tan avanzadas que, según BMWblog.com , un lanzamiento al mercado en 2026 es cada vez más probable.
Al igual que con los hermanos mayores, la elección del cambio manual debería ser imposible con la opción de tracción total para el BMW M2, todos los G87 con M xDrive vienen con la transmisión automática de ocho velocidades. El trasfondo de esta decisión es obvio: la transmisión manual está dirigida principalmente a los puristas, para quienes la tracción total no es una opción interesante de todos modos. Sin embargo, con el M2 de tracción total, la empresa con sede en Garching podría abrir un grupo objetivo que antes era más probable que estuviera en la carretera con un Audi RS 3 o Mercedes-AMG A 45 S por razones de tracción y para quienes un M240i xDrive (G42) no ofrece suficiente potencia.
Dado que el lavado de cara del automóvil deportivo compacto también está previsto para 2026, el tornillo de rendimiento también podría girarse con el debut de xDrive: con sus 460 hp actuales, el S58 de seis cilindros en línea biturbo está todo menos agotado y hay muchos indicios. que estamos en el transcurso del ciclo de vida también romper la marca de 500 hp en el M2. Un buen candidato para esto es, por supuesto, el BMW M2 CS (G87) , que ya está en desarrollo, pero que enviará su potencia a las ruedas traseras de una forma muy clásica.

IND & Eventuri | MPACT Motorsport Festival Best In Show Vendor
The world of automotive enthusiasts is one fueled by passion, performance, and the pursuit of excellence. These elements were all on full display this past weekend when IND Distribution took the stage at the MPACT Motorsport Festival held at the iconic Pocono Raceway in PA. The event, a convergence of like-minded BMW owners from all walks of life, marked a significant milestone for our team.
Just days before, and following an intensive collaboration with Alpha-N in Germany, we completed our latest iteration of the IND G87 M2. The last minute process was demanding, involving air freighting parts immediately after they came out of tooling. As is typical in the industry, our race against time resulted in a profound feeling of achievement, made even more special by a visit from one of IND's original founders who traveled to MPACT from LA to see the project's debut firsthand.
Despite any lingering concerns about COVID's impact on the car scene, the atmosphere at the show was buoyant, with a sense of shared enthusiasm pervading the Eventuri booth. The feedback from both customers and vendors was overwhelmingly positive, culminating in our win for "Best in Show Vendor." It was a recognition that meant a lot to us, a nod from our peers in an industry we love.
The Confluence of Passion and Precision
The MPACT Motorsport Festival has become synonymous with bringing together an eclectic mix of BMW enthusiasts, professionals, and vendors under one "roof"—otherwise known as the big open sky of Ponoco Raceway. We saw this event as an opportunity to showcase our dedication to the craft, bringing our infamous Gelbgrün F87 M2, our British Racing Green G82 M4 previous SEMA car, and our latest (and quickly-approaching most extreme) build: our G87 M2. Months of meticulous planning and coordination went into transforming our M2 into the rolling embodiment of automotive excellence.
The Power of Alpha-N Aerodynamics
At the heart of our latest build lies the comprehensive Alpha-N aerodynamic package, an engineering marvel that seamlessly combines form and function. This suite of upgrades legitimately enhances the G87 M2's performance while also making an indelible visual impact. The carbon fiber components are not just eye-catching but have been precision-engineered to optimize aerodynamic efficiency. From the front splitter that channels airflow to reduce lift, to the aggressive rear wing and diffuser/underbody package that both reduce drag and increase downforce, aiding stability at high speeds. Each element serves a purpose beyond aesthetics.
Unveiling at Pocono Raceway
Pocono Raceway, with its historic legacy, proved to be the perfect backdrop for our showcase. As the 13th Annual MPACT Festival, Jaycent and crew are a well-oiled machine at this point so both the setup and roll-in processes were extremely organized and we were grateful to be able to setup Friday evening. We'd also be remiss if we didn't extend a big thank you to Tommy, Jeff, Matt, and the rest of the ACM team. They were a great help in both some logistics planning and throughout Saturday.
As the sun rose on the brisk morning of the festival, the G87 M2 adorned in all its Alpha-N glory stood as a testament to the intersection of art and engineering. There was a steady flow of foot traffic immediately upon our arrival at 7:30 AM. Automotive enthusiasts and fellow vendors were drawn to the Eventuri booth, where the M2 was a centerpiece of intrigue. Spurring several inquiries was our inclusion of Eventuri's re-launched matte finish G8X intake and engine cover, a prototype G87 exhaust from Eisenmann and prototype roll bar from Alpha-N, a full suite of Fall-Line Motorsports components, KW V4 Clubsport Coilovers, BBS E89 wheels, and the finishing touch of M4 CSL carbon front bucket seats and steering wheel.
The Triumph of Best of Show Vendor
As the day culminated in a flurry of engine roars and tire screeches from the activities on the track, both vendors and participants were vying to leave an indelible mark on the event. When the moment arrived, we were thrilled and honored to receive the most coveted "Best of Show Vendor" award. The culmination of months of dedication, innovation, and relentless pursuit of perfection had borne fruit. The award was not just a recognition of a stunning car showcase, but a celebration of the passion and expertise that defines IND's ethos.
The Legacy of Excellence
This recognition stands as a testament to the power of collaboration, innovation, and the unyielding pursuit of excellence. Specifically, our G87 M2 served as a beacon of inspiration for enthusiasts and professionals alike, reminding us that the automotive world is not just about machines, but a fusion of art, science, and unbridled passion.
The MPACT Motorsport Festival at Pocono Raceway will always be remembered as a chapter in IND's journey of excellence. The convergence of automotive enthusiasts, the showcase of cutting-edge components, and the crowning glory of winning "Best of Show Vendor" have solidified this event as a cornerstone in the world of BMW appreciation and celebration. As the engines quiet down and the cheers fade away, one thing remains clear: our journey is a reminder that the pursuit of perfection is an everlasting endeavor, and the road to excellence is paved with innovation, passion, collaboration, and a love for this industry.
Thanks to everyone who stopped by our Eventuri booth; we look forward to seeing our G87 M2 and G82 M4 at the Bimmer Invasion show coming up in LA, followed by a quick trip to the CSF Select M-Powered By BMW event shortly after.

Ideally lowered suspension and spacers would add another element of sportiness, however as a demonstration model the lower suspension would prove to be destructive - way too many speed-bumps out in our neck of the woods for eager test-drives.

2023 BMW M2 By dAHLer Gets 552 Horsepower And Other Upgrades
August 29, 2023
As is the case with just about every new M product, tuners are eager to get their hands on the latest performance car developed by BMW’s go-faster division. The second-generation M2 is no exception as we’ve already seen our fair share of custom builds even though series production of the G87 started in December 2022. In this short interval, the German luxury brand has assembled over 10,000 units, so there are a lot of cars out there ready to be modified.
The aftermarket specialists at dAHLer are rolling out their stage 1 kit for the entry-level M car to take its twin-turbo, 3.0-liter engine to new power heights. The S58 inline-six has been dialed to 552 horsepower and 660 Newton-meters (487 pound-feet) of torque, which represents a healthy boost of 92 hp and 110 Nm (81 lb-ft).
Aside from the extra oomph, the latest M2 gets a carbon fiber air intake and a sports air filter, not to mention a stainless-steel exhaust system with quad 100-mm tips and bi-flap control. Give the tuner a bit more time and it’ll introduce a stage 2 kit to bump horsepower and torque numbers further. Meanwhile, the stage 1 program can be complemented by additional hardware and visual changes.
BMW’s not-so-baby-anymore M car can be equipped with a set of sports springs to lower the front section of the car by 27 millimeters (1.06 inches) and the rear by 25 mm (0.98 in). A pricier option is represented by a more sophisticated coilover suspension, providing adjustability in terms of height and stiffness.
You can swap out the OEM wheels (19 inches front and 20 inches rear) in favor of dAHLer’s set with 21-inch forged wheels for both axles. These come wrapped around 275/25 ZR21 front and 305/25 ZR21 rear tires and are said to be lighter than the original wheels fitted by BMW. As a final touch, the M2 can be equipped with a chunky front spoiler lip color-coordinated with the rest of the body or you can have it in naked carbon fiber.

RECORD-BREAKING.
Behind the Scenes: The BMW M2’s record lap on the Nordschleife.
30. Aug 2023
The engine’s running, the driver’s behind the wheel. As soon as he gives the sign, the crew are ready to whip the warmers off the tyres, turn the lever rods of the hydraulic jacks in sync to the left and put the BMW M2 back on its wheels so that it can get going. On a flying start on the Nordschleife of the Nürburgring. To go out and break records.

MONTHS OF PREPARATION.
There was a lot of preparation necessary to get to this sunny April day. From booking the Nürburgring to coordinating the vehicles. Another important point is the logistics – a whole heap of stuff had to be transported from Garching near Munich to the Eifel including wheels, tools, tyre-warmers and lots more besides. The first planning meetings were held months ago. Then, about two weeks before the big day it was crunch time when the vehicles took to the Nordschleife – albeit under bad weather conditions. “We had to keep waiting for dry spells and couldn’t complete a single timed lap”, says Jörg Weidinger. The development engineer is responsible for the overall set-up at BMW M. He’s also a practised record driver and will be behind the wheel today.
Apart from Jörg, there are seven other men on the operative team: a four-man crew who prepare tyres and vehicles and three technical directors. They’re responsible for the technical scrutineering of the vehicles and the coordination of the record attempts.
Four Cars, One Day - BMW M Fast Laps at the Nürburgring.
“100% SERIES VEHICLES.”
Today is all about records for series vehicles, something that BMW M takes very seriously: Even though the team could make changes to the vehicles within the regulations, they don’t. “Generally speaking, our credo for record runs is: We use 100% series vehicles that can be bought just as they are now”, says Klaus Huber, head of Driving dynamics and setup at BMW M. If for example a car goes for a record with a carbon roof and bucket seats, these must also be purchasable for this model. The Track tyres are also part of the BMW M original equipment.
20,832 kilometres
is the official length of the Nordschleife lap with a flying start.
Time to go: All four men on the jacks raise an arm – the sign that the BMW M2 has been set down and the jacks are no longer under the vehicle. The record car is headed for the Nordschleife access. Right behind the BMW M2 is a second M automobile. The striking BMW M3 Touring in the extrovert Isle of Man Green Metallic paintjob is a so-called Rescue Vehicle with two fire extinguishers on board. If there was an accident, the driver would be able to help the record attempt car more quickly than the track marshals on foot.
THE PLACE IS BUZZING.
One day before the scheduled record attempt, things really get going. Most vehicles drive to the Eifel under their own steam, just like a real M automobile should: Besides their racetrack capability, they’re also perfectly suited to everyday use and long-distance cruising. Only top-secret models due to be launched shortly come under cover of a trailer. The destination however remains the same: the BMW M Test Centre at the Nürburgring. On record days, the workshop here is the control centre. 24 hours before an attempt the place is buzzing. All the hydraulic lifts are occupied, tool trolleys trundle noisily about, the typical squeal of rubber tyres on concrete floors can be heard everywhere. Final vehicle checks are made.
THE TÜV HAS TO GIVE ITS GO.
Today, the vehicles are not only being prepared for the record attempt on the Nordschleife – the most important item on the agenda in the Test Centre is the TÜV (Technischer Überwachungsverein; the german equivalent to the MoT) approval. The test engineer examines the vehicles painstakingly. His clearance is the precondition that tomorrow’s record attempt is allowed to take place. And the procedure goes a lot further than a TÜV general inspection. The BMW M models are also weighed, the vehicle identification numbers checked and the various different components like rims, suspension and engine scrutinized. The TÜV technician documents everything and takes photos. Before the record attempt can take place the following day, the inspector checks the cars again briefly and monitors the preparations on the track. It’s a closely-meshed procedure to make sure that only series vehicles take part.
Weighing is part of the TÜV approval before the record run.
Equipped with two stopwatches and a light barrier, a notary oversees and verifies the laptime.
The second official and one of the most important people on a day of record attempts is the notary. Before the start, he confirms the TÜV approval, monitors the timekeeping and is positioned at the tourist entrance to the Nürburgring. This is where the lap times are recorded and verified.
The evening before the record attempt: the last team meeting in the BMW M Test Centre at the Nürburgring.
FINAL DISCUSSIONS.
The evening before the record attempt, the whole team meets in the workshop. They form a circle, while two colleagues join them down the line via two laptops on the boot lid. There’s no motivational pep-talk, just the last points that need clearing up along with the final schedule. Now the tension is almost palpable, as the whole record now depends on the one parameter that no-one can influence: the changeable Eifel weather. It has to stay dry.
“The perfect matching of suspension, engine, transmission and co is a series component of our vehicles: We achieve records in SPORT mode which was tuned to suit the Nürburgring.”
Klaus Huber, Head of Driving dynamics and setup at BMW M
The record-hungry BMW M2 and the Rescue Vehicle drive onto the Döttinger Höhe and disappear out of sight. The sound of the engines dies away. The team has watched both BMW M automobiles go and then immediately begun preparations for the next lap. The crew is now in a white trackside pavilion containing more than a dozen sets of wheels, most covered by tyre warmers. 70° Celsius is the ideal temperature for the tyres for most M models. The crew tear open the Velcro fastenings to warm the next set. In between, the quiet hissing of the air pump can be heard. The tyre pressure has to be perfect to ensure all four wheels have the best possible grip on the track.
The tyres are first filled generously, then on the vehicle air is only let out.
That the tyres warm up faster and retain their temperature better they are warmed in stacks.
Warmers keep the tyres waiting for deployment at 70°C.
Wheel guns and torque wrenches are among the most important tools on record day.
RECORDS NEED THE RIGHT FEELING.
The day has begun cold, the temperature was around freezing point. But at 7.30am as the crew starts setting up its base at the Nordschleife approach, the sun comes out. It will however stay a cold 7°C all day long, the lower limit for good lap times on the Nürburgring. “Cool temperatures are basically advantageous”, says Klaus Huber. “They ensure good engine cooling when we’re pushing the envelope. Today, the sun is also warming the asphalt which means it can work well with the tyres.” Towards noon it’s all set: the first vehicle arrives. Until now, it’s been waiting in the warm Test Centre for its cue. Before the first record attempt however the car does a warm-up lap on used prewarmed tyres. “This lap serves to adapt to the vehicle and the track conditions and to get a feel for how the tyres change during the lap in order to define the correct filling pressure”, explains Klaus Huber. Driving record laps still needs experience and feeling.
ONLY THREE RUNS.
And the dress rehearsal is already a success: Driver Jörg Weidinger senses that he’s beaten the old lap record, but could go one better. As soon as the BMW M automobile is back at the starting point, he jumps out of the car and notes down new tyre pressures. He has three goes for this M model, then all the fresh tyres are used up. Used tyres wouldn’t bring the performance peak needed to make the difference between a fast lap and a record lap. The new tyres are fitted, the tank filled and Jörg Weidinger starts his first attempt at the record.
After a test lap, Jörg Weidinger notes down new air pressures. He defines a different value for each tyre. Tenths of a bar can be decisive.
Final spurt: After the long straight, the finish isn’t far away.
A brief moment of excitement on the Nordschleife approach: The BMW M2 on course for the record is heading for the long straight between Döttinger Höhe and Tiergarten. The crew swarm to the trackside, some whip out mobile phones to capture the moment. In solemn silence, they watch the record vehicle appear, drowning out the birdsong with its throaty roar. It shoots past and disappears into the rise at Tiergarten. Some distance behind follows the green Rescue Vehicle, now turning into the Nordschleife approach. The last section to the light barrier which ends the timed lap has to be covered by the record vehicle by itself.
“We know what the vehicles are capable of. But in the end, you only see on the day of the record attempt whether all the factors fit.”
Jörg Weidinger, development engineer general setup BMW M
ALL-IN FOR ONE LAP.
Today, record driver Jörg Weidinger faces an additional challenge: He cannot allow his concentration to falter, even after several hours at the wheel. He doesn’t have any tricks or gimmicks: “There’s a kind of flow feeling. That enables me to perform at the max all day long”, he says. This flow feeling is felt by everyone in the team. It’s the secret ingredient for success, because every mistake, be it by the driver, in the preparation of the vehicle or in the coordination, could cost them the record.
COOLING DOWN ON EIFEL ROADS.
After crossing the finishing line, there’s a delay before the cars return to the team at the Nordschleife approach. First, the M automobiles are cooled down on a short drive through the Eifel, a step that is as important as warming up the engine before the record attempt. “After a lap on the limit, above all the engine and the brakes need time to cool down slowly”, explains Klaus Huber. “This happens at lower revs and less demanding braking, along with a cooling airflow. Cooling down is not just a must at record attempts, but after every operation on the racetrack.”
Klaus Huber, Head of Driving Dynamics and setup at BMW M, Dirk Häcker, Head of Development at BMW M, Frank Weishar, development engineer for wheels, tyres and driving dynamics at BMW M and driver Jörg Weidinger, development engineer for general setup at BMW M.
A voice can be heard coming from Klaus Huber’s radio. “He’s finished”, it says. Whether this lap was a record or not, no one yet knows. The crew prepares everything for the next attempt just in case, positioning the jacks. Huber is still on the radio when the BMW M2 turns into the car park before the Nordschleife approach, Weidinger parks the car, but remains in his seat to analyse some data. Then he gets out. “And?” he asks. A small group have formed around him and Klaus Huber. Everyone wants to know the result. Huber states the time, and everyone breaks into a smile, Weidinger even does a little jump. They’ve done it, BMW M has set a new record. But there’s no time to celebrate – the next vehicle is already turning into the car park.

Nürburgring a bordo: el BMW M2 G87 establece un récord en la clase compacta
30 de agosto de 2023
Con un tiempo de vuelta notariado de 7:38.706 minutos, el BMW M2 (G87) ha conseguido el récord oficial para los vehículos de serie en la clase compacta. Su tiempo supera al Audi RS 3 sedán, que marcó un tiempo de 7:40,748 segundos en el verano de 2021, lo que le convierte en el poseedor del récord anterior. El Honda Civic Type R, que en marzo de 2023 estuvo a punto de alcanzar el mejor tiempo previsto con un tiempo de 7:44.811, así como el antiguo poseedor del récord Renault Mégane RS Trophy-R, que ya falló en 2019 con un tiempo de 7:45. , también tiene que admitir la derrota. Se midió .39.
No es de extrañar que el nuevo BMW M2 rodara con los mejores neumáticos que se le pudieron pedir durante su racha récord: en los neumáticos delanteros de 19 pulgadas se utilizó Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 en formato 275/35 R19, y Neumáticos delanteros de 20 pulgadas. En el eje trasero motriz, los neumáticos Ultra High Performance funcionan incluso en formato 285/30 R20. Por supuesto, el techo de carbono opcional y los asientos baquet M de carbono, más ligeros, también se utilizan cuando se trata de lograr los mejores tiempos por vuelta posibles.
Es importante que todos los equipos especiales utilizados puedan ser solicitados regularmente por cada cliente y que el vehículo esté fácilmente disponible para todos los interesados en exactamente la misma configuración y coordinación. Este estado del vehículo lo comprueban y confirman no sólo M GmbH y el notario correspondiente, sino también el TÜV.
Al igual que en anteriores récords, M GmbH volvió a poner al volante al piloto de pruebas Jörg Weidinger, que conoce el BMW M2 (G87) desde el principio y sabe exactamente cómo conducirlo a través del Infierno Verde lo más rápido posible. Durante la carrera récord, el Nürburgring Nordschleife se mantiene fresco, con el termómetro marcando 7 grados centígrados. Los calentadores de neumáticos ayudan notablemente en este caso, ya que antes de la salida los neumáticos alcanzan una temperatura de unos 70 grados centígrados y, por lo tanto, alcanzan una ventana de temperatura ideal.
El resultado de una preparación óptima, una vuelta de conducción perfecta y las cualidades del BMW M2 es el tiempo de vuelta oficial de 7:39,706 minutos. Esto significa que el M2 no sólo deja atrás a todos los demás deportivos compactos medidos aquí bajo supervisión notarial, sino que también muestra sus puntos fuertes en comparación con sus hermanos mayores: el M3 Touring no fue cinco segundos más rápido en su récord familiar, que sigue siendo válido. ¡Hoy, a pesar de tener 50 CV más !

El BMW M2 2023 bate el récord de Nürburgring para coches compactos
30 de agosto de 2023
BMW ha resistido la tentación de perseguir récords de vuelta en Nürburgring, pero ese ya no es el caso, ya que el M2 G87 es el nuevo señor del 'Ring entre los coches compactos. Con neumáticos Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2, el cupé deportivo de segunda generación equipado con transmisión automática de ocho velocidades fue pilotado por el ingeniero de desarrollo Jörg Weidinger.
Un total de ocho personas participaron en los esfuerzos de la empresa, incluido un equipo de cuatro hombres encargado de preparar los coches y los neumáticos. Estuvieron presentes nada menos que tres directores técnicos para comprobar que los vehículos estuvieran en óptimas condiciones. BMW no modificó los coches para reducir preciosos segundos del tiempo de vuelta, ya que la división M señala que el M2 utilizado para el intento de batir el récord se puede comprar en el concesionario local.
En un buen comienzo en el Nordschleife de Nürburgring , el M2 completó el recorrido de 20,8 kilómetros (12,9 millas) en 7 minutos y 38,706 segundos. Para la configuración ligeramente más corta de 20,6 kilómetros (12,8 millas) que suelen utilizar los fabricantes de automóviles para establecer récords, el pequeño coche M tardó 7 minutos y 33,906 segundos. En consecuencia, eclipsó a modelos hot hatch como el Honda Civic Type R y el Renault Mégane RS Trophy-R, así como al Audi RS3 Sedan.
Antes de batir el récord, el M2 hizo una vuelta de calentamiento con neumáticos usados precalentados. Nota al margen: la temperatura ideal para el caucho utilizado en la mayoría de los coches M es de 70° Celsius (158° Fahrenheit), Jörg Weidinger solo tuvo tres intentos de batir un nuevo récord, y detrás había un M3 Touring que servía como vehículo de rescate en caso de que algo saliera mal.
Cabe mencionar que el M2 no es el BMW de producción más rápido en dar la vuelta al Infierno Verde, ya que ese título es para el M4 CSL . Sin embargo, hemos escuchado que hay otro auto M aún por lanzar que ha recorrido Nürburgring aún más rápido, así que esté atento a este espacio para obtener más detalles.
En 2024, BMW debería poder mejorar el tiempo de vuelta en el anillo del M2 con el CS , un derivado más potente que se espera que tenga más de 500 caballos de fuerza.
