Looking forward to the G60 5-Series. Probably coming out in 2023.

The first 48V vehicle will be G30 520d, likely intro in 2020. This system will later expand to other G30/G31 models, and possibly even F90. The next likely candidate for 48V is G01/G02.

First news about the next (G87) M2: production 12/2022-03/2029, likely in Mexico.

I'm guessing the 520d would be with the LCI launch?


Is that all M2 and 2 series made globally? Or just ones bound for the Americas? It would seem weird to ship 220d or whatever models from Mexico back to Europe.

This ... "It's possible Spartanburg will not be the primary production plant for their successors [X3/X4]"

ynguldyn I know that your only reporting, but with BMW NA portfolio sales of 60% X vehicles, maybe production shifts to South Africa for the ex NA market to make room for 4 series and 5 series production in Spartanburg to hedge against the threat EU tariffs? If so, the ED program would be history.

@ynguldyn Have you heard anything regarding the X3M/X4M SOP? I don't see them on your list (probably because they are now official). The posted order guides in their respective thread shows SOP as this month however, another user heard from some BMW execs that SOP was delayed.

They did go into production four weeks ago, but I'm not seeing the numbers I would normally expect for a brand new model that needs to go into a bunch of showrooms for presentation. So there could be something going on there.

Interesting. My salesman was only able to get june production. Are the numbers that limited? Better question is - will they switch it in August to 2020 model year with new tech? Or will they leave m cars behind ?

What about x3 m40? It is supposed to get new tech as of August. Will the enigine get new output of 382 hp like m340?

Pretty sure that the X3M/X4M were never going to be considered a 2019 model year, so there would be no switch.

HMM that's even worse than. We know they are being manufactured now with old tech. If no switch in August -it means x3M will stay behind the rest of x3 models
- no I drive 7
- No Assistant drive Pro
- no remote start, etc.

Yes, it will fill the void left by the recently departed 640i.

US product strategy:

1/2 family of products - B48 only (coupe excepted)
3/4 family of products - B48/B58/S58
5/6 family of products - B48/B58/N63/S63 (no B48 in SAVs)
7/8 family of products - B58/N63/S63 (N74 dies with the G12)

And before someone asks if there will be an M7 next generation - I have no idea. But they really should, right?

The BMW X3M and X4M have their World Premiere in Shanghai this week.

An M7 would be cool, although the grill would ruin it, but what engine would they use? The V12 is already in the M760i, and a V8 isn't as cool as a V12, plus they got the Alpina B8 which is the closest they'll ever get to an M7. Maybe they should try and make a V16 again, so the M gets the range topping engine




They should also include the double rear intakes for the radiator as well, I'd love to see how people would react to that!

Shame that BMW is leaving the wagon market in the US for Audi RS6 and Mercedes E63 to conquer.
