BMW M8 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (from 2022) — First Generation Restyling 1
The updated first-generation BMW M8 brings the brand's flagship performance car to Coupe, Cabrio and Sedan buyers, pairing everyday usability with the kind of pace normally reserved for dedicated sports machinery.
Every example here shares the same recipe: a 4.4-litre twin-turbocharged petrol V8 driving all four wheels through an automatic gearbox. That xDrive drivetrain sends torque rearward by default, so the car still feels rear-driven, while the automatic transmission shifts quickly enough for hard driving yet stays smooth in traffic. This BMW M8 engine layout appears across Coupe, Cabrio and Sedan versions.
