A more potent BMW<\/a> M2 could get more power, or perhaps a manual gearbox.<\/p>\n

Production of the G87-generation BMW M2 will continue until July 2029.<\/p>\n

An all-wheel drive version of the M2 CS could be the perfect addition to the range.<\/p>\n

The BMW M2<\/a> CS is a phenomenal sports car, cramming the M3 and M4 Competition\u2019s engine into a smaller and lighter package with rear-wheel drive. However, with approximately two years left in its production cycle, BMW isn\u2019t done with its smallest performance model just yet.<\/p>\n

According to BimmerPost<\/a> member Ynguldyn, who has a solid record for surfacing accurate information about BMW\u2019s<\/a> product plans, a new version of the M2 will be released before the existing car is retired. Details are few and far between, with the only confirmation being that a \u201cspecial model\u201d is coming, leaving us to speculate about what the company has up its sleeve.<\/p>\n

While it\u2019d be easy to think that BMW has pushed the M2 as far as it can, there\u2019s definitely still room for it to be developed further<\/a>. One potential direction BMW could take is to launch an all-wheel-drive version of the potent M2 CS, following in the footsteps of the xDrive versions of the M3 and M4.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Next For The M2?<\/p>\n

A couple of months ago, BMW launched an all-wheel-drive version of the regular M2, producing 473 hp and 443 lb-ft of torque, so it has the hardware to pair the all-wheel-drive system with the more powerful 523 hp and 479 lb-ft engine of the M2 CS<\/a>. The presence of all-wheel drive cuts the regular car\u2019s sprint to 100 km\/h (62 mph) by 0.3 seconds, and it could make an even bigger difference on the CS.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, BMW may look to take the M2 in a similar direction to the M3 CS, launching a version with a six-speed manual dubbed the Handschalter<\/a>. Another option would be for a hardcore BMW M2<\/a> CSL to be launched, weighing less than the CS and potentially having even more power.<\/p>\n

Whatever BMW is working on, M2 fans should be buzzing with excitement that an even more special model is on the horizon.<\/p>\n
