the scoop
The Vision M Next concept claimed an electric driving range of 62 miles. There isn’t much info on the EV capabilities of the i8 M, but be sure BMW’s engineers are working feverishly to find ways to eke out more range from each charge. Hopefully, BMW will address one common criticism from the first model: ingress and egress. Sure, it’s a ground- hugging hypercar with butterfly or front- hinged doors, but it was exceptionally hard to get in and out, gracefully or otherwise. As a hypercar, storage and cargo capacity will likely remain limited, but a front trunk (or frunk) may provide additional luggage space. We’re hoping it will be offered as a convertible as well as a fixed-roof coupe, similar to the previous generation model’s lineup. If you’re going to be uncomfortable in a performance car, you might as well have the wind in your hair. The price of the 2026 BMW i8 M is expected to range from approximately $160,000 to $180,000, depending on the selected trim and options. Like its predecessor, the i8 M will be BMW’s laboratory for futuristic styling and materials, serving as a rolling demonstration of cutting-edge features and eye-popping designs.
