M2 battery

Does anyone know what kind of battery the G87 has? Both F82 and G82 have a lithium-ion battery. If the M2 has an AGM, that is another potential weight savings. The L-Ion are much more expensive, so I'm guessing it has AGM. My F82 battery is going on 9 years old and still going strong.

Edit: Given how sensitive modern electronics are, not sure if a swap is doable. This is a good source, though: https://antigravitybatteries.com/pro...es/automotive/

At least here in Spain (Europe) they will be lithium ion, that's what the dealer told me when I asked. They didn't have the car but they showed me the battery charger.

It has an 'A090 90 AH AGM battery'. See post #32 in the G87 M2 - VIN List thread.
