First Look: 2026 BMW M2 CS - Headlight.news

Background: The 2026 BMW M2 CS is a limited production M2 that has been tweaked for more performance and less weight. It has 50 more horsepower and weighs nearly 100 pounds less than the normal M2. It has also had its suspension, transmission, steering, differential, and several other bits retuned to provide a CS-specific setup. In the US, it costs $98,600. It also has 523 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque and weighs 3,800 lbs. The brand new M2 CS has an S58 3-liter twin-turbo inline-six with 530 horsepower and torque is up from 600 to 650. It's supposed to be a bit more of a hardcore car, like a car that you can drive every day, but also take to a track day. The M2 CS goes in 0 to 60 mph in 3.6 seconds and 1/4 mile time in 11.8 seconds and consumes 19 mpg in both the city and highway combined with 16 mpg only in the city and 23 mpg only in the highway all with a top speed of 188 mph. Wow!!!

Where it is made and how it is made: Production at BMW Group Plant San Luis Potosí, Mexico started in August 2025, with deliveries expected to commence in Q3. The M2 CS sends its power to the rear wheels via a standard 8-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic.

Intelligent lightweight design saves nearly 100 pounds: With the M2 CS, BMW M has reduced the weight of the standard 8-speed Steptronic-equipped M2 by 97 pounds. This was achieved through judicious use of lightweight materials, such as exterior and interior components made from carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) and fitting the M2 CS with forged M alloy wheels as standard.

The 2026 BMW M2 CS has a turning circle (turning diameter) of 39.0 feet (11.9 meters). It also has a fuel tank capacity of 13.7 gallons. Overall, it has 9.863 Vishus!!!

2027 BMW i7

Introduction: Here is the introduction about the brand new 2027 BMW i7 Neue Klasse.

Pictures: Here are some of the pictures of the 2027 BMW i7 Neue Klasse.

2027 BMW i7 Gets 350 Miles Of Range And Quicker Charging Thanks To New Batteries

Unique Things and Powertrain: The 2027 BMW i7 xDrive60 is expected to be part of a refreshed i7 lineup, retaining its dual-motor and all-wheel-drive setup with around 536 horsepower, offering strong performance (0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds), a top speed of 149 mph, and featuring tech like the Curved Display, but updated with "Neue Klasse" design cues like split headlights and a rear light bar for an aggressive, futuristic look, alongside an advanced panoramic cockpit experience. The 2027 BMW i7 xDrive60 arrives as part of a significant mid-life facelift (LCI) for the 7 Series, featuring a bold, updated design and a massive interior overhaul and released in April 2026. The updated model is slated to include BMW’s new Panoramic Vision iDrive X interface, potential battery capacity increases, and refined exterior styling with a more dynamic, cleaner front end. The i7 xDrive50 makes 449 horsepower and 487 lb-ft of torque. It goes in 0 to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds and has a top speed of 130 mph. The batteries in both the i7 models have 112 kWh.

Key Expectations for the 2027 i7:

Performance: Continues with dual electric motors, delivering 536 horsepower and all-wheel drive (xDrive), ensuring quick acceleration. The xDrive60 is expected to continue with dual electric motors. It also has 549 lb-ft of torque. 

Design Changes: A face-lifted exterior with split headlights (upper DRLs, lower main beams) and potentially a rear light bar, influenced by the Neue Klasse concept for a bolder look. While retaining the split headlight signature, the front end is expected to look less "busy" with revised kidney grilles. The rear will feature updated LED taillights.

Comfort & Features: Expect luxurious materials, available massaging/ventilated seats, premium audio, and wireless connectivity.

Range: BMW estimates over 350 miles of range in the 2027 i7 xDrive60. 

Platform and Price: While not fully Neue Klasse, it will incorporate elements of the new design language, bridging the gap before the next-gen fully transitions. The i7 xDrive50 starts at $107,750 and the i7 xDrive starts at $126,250. 

Exterior: More aggressive front with split lights; wider, possibly light-bar-integrated taillights.

Interior Revolution: The new 7-Series will add BMW's Panoramic iDrive system, which uses a dash-spanning panoramic display in conjunction with a central touchscreen. The system also offers access to an optional 3-D head-up display. The cabin will move away from the traditional dual-screen setup toward the new Panoramic iDrive X, which spans the base of the windshield.

Availability: Expected to launch with the refreshed 7 Series line, possibly late 2026 or early 2027.

Technology: The vehicle will feature generative AI-enhanced voice assistants and upgraded computing power. The 2027 model is an "almost completely new vehicle" in terms of its digital architecture, bridging the gap between the current generation and future Neue Klasse styling. Despite the updates, the luxury focus remains, with the signature 31-inch rear theater screen expected to carry over.

Negatives: BMW dropped their Level 3 self-driving system entirely. BMW said that regulatory requirements for level 3 got too complex and expensive to keep up with. Instead, they're focusing on Level 2 which costs $1,700 versus the $7,000 level 3 option. You get lane keeping, adaptive cruise, automatic braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear-cross traffic alert, traffic sign recognition, and the full package, but no true hands-free driving.
