Our very own Felix_Page_ wonders if BMW M will stay at the top of its game in the EV era
As BMW details a bold plan to sell two million EVs by 2025 and for EVs to account for 50% of its global sales just five years later, we must reconcile ourselves with the notion that the snarling, popping, rev-hungry M car is an endangered breed.
We've already had our first taste of how M's engineers will set about heating up pure-electric cars, courtesy of the warm i4 M50, and that its first plug-in hybrid, the XM, is also its most powerful model yet should provide some reassurance that potency and pace won't fall by the wayside in the great pursuit of reduced emissions.
Questions remain over just how effectively differentiated M-badged EVs will be from their common-or-garden counterparts – it would take a true expert to discern the standard iX from the upcoming iX M60 range-topper – but for the next few years, M GmbH’s propensity for variety will continue to capture the imagination of performance car fans around the world.
