EVO UK FEB 2023- M2 Driven Review

It looks like a review/ drive of the M2 in the February issue EVO UK.

If you scroll down the page, the M2 is still in camo

Friendly FYI, but Barnes & Noble typically carries this magazine. Someone go pick one up and report back.

Yes, incredible news! As I stated earlier this week in another thread, ICE is far from dead at BMW M and it will not be for quite some time. *Full ICE is dead after the G87 though as it has been repeatedly confirmed.

I know a lot of people that have bought into the idea that in 10yrs there will be no more ICE cars for sale. I've had discussions with many friends and coworkers about this and was willing to bet them it was a pipedream. Yes, ICE will slowly be phased out but the challenges to get there are enormous and it won't be anywhere near ready for prime time in 10yrs. Governments know this, but they have to do something to get the ball rolling and so this is more or less a placeholder that's subject to change. They also don't expect every legacy ICE car to be taken off the road once EVs become mainstream, it's just not feasible. Gasoline will be sold for many, many years to come.

So the new engine will be a turbo I4 with electric assist? I hope that question ages poorly.

Awesome short review though. So glad to see new press material on the car.

Thanks everyone for posting. Really exciting.

Man I love my wagons but that M3 touring is really large car. An M2 touring would be a dream.

An m2 hatch????? I wish. I agree the m3t is bigger than I'd like but I know bmw wouldn't make anything similar to the rs3 hatch and the m3t is the best possible option (if it came to the states)
