The 2018 BMW M2 is a revered member of BMW's performance-focused M sub-brand. It's part of the first generation, introduced in 2016. Under the hood, it hosts a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine producing a lively 365 horsepower, paired with either a standard six-speed manual or an optional seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. As standard, it's rear-wheel drive, enhancing its dynamic driving experience. Only one trim is available, but it's generously equipped with features like keyless ignition and entry, an 8.8-inch infotainment display, Apple CarPlay, navigation, and a premium Harman Kardon sound system. Notable safety features include front and rear parking sensors. Changes for the 2018 model year include the addition of LED headlights and a backup camera as standard features.
