BMW has been working on a quad-motor electric performance car for a while now. The all-electric M prototype car has been spied on testing on multiple occasions, with BMW even releasing official images of the same.<\/p>\n
According to the latest media reports, BMW could also be looking at introducing an electric M car with a dual-motor rear-wheel-drive setup. Frank van Meel, CEO of BMW M, stated that the carmaker is considering the RWD dual-motor version, which could be lighter and more fun to drive than the heavier yet faster quad-motor xDrive-equipped M car.<\/p>\n
BMW already has a range of M performance-badged cars in its lineup, including the i4 M50, i5 M60, iX M60 and the i7 M70. However, a full-fledged M electric car is still said to be a couple of years away.<\/p>\n
The fully-fledged electric M cars will be based on the brand’s Neue Klasse platform, which will make its debut in 2025. While the first models based on the Neue Klasse platform will be a sedan and SUV in the 3 Series segment, the first real M car without an IC engine is slated to launch sometime in 2027.<\/p>\n
