M car is officially in the works, with the German firm testing a concept – recently spotted in public for the first time – that will form the basis of its next generation of performance EVs.M50 underpinnings have been adapted, with significantly widened wheel arches.brand new xDrive four-wheel drive systemBMW said this new drive system “opens up completely new possibilities”, with “extremely precise” torque and power delivered to each wheel “within milliseconds”.
It added: “The power and torque of the spontaneously reacting electric motors can be dosed so precisely that the load demand signalled via the accelerator pedal can be realised at a level of dynamics that is unattainable using conventional drive systems.” This means that the driver is able to experience “entirely new performance characteristics” never before felt in an M car.
The new images also reveal bespoke M-badging on the front grille – with what appears to be a hand-written model designation – hinting at the prototype's experimental nature.
