The BMW 8 Series Coupé, Convertible, and Gran Coupé feature sharpened exterior design features for year model 2022. Notable exterior design revisions to the front section and specification enhancements retain a blend of performance, refinement, and exclusivity. The update 8 series will continue to be powered by a 333bhp 6-cylinder petrol ranging and the 530 bhp, Twin Turbo V8 4.4-litre, depending on the model variant.
The BMW “Iconic Glow” kidney grille premiers for the very first time on the 8 Series, which is standard on all model variants, whilst the interior ups the luxury ante with the BMW Individual Merino leather upholstery and galvanic controls as standard features.
All model variants continue to be equipped with the M sports pack as standard. As a result, they have aerodynamically optimised body features finished in body colour at the front and rear apron as well as on the side skirts.
The standard equipment of the new BMW 8 Series includes the BMW Live Cockpit Professional. It consists of a 12.3-inch fully digital instrument cluster behind the steering wheel and a Control Display now increased in size from 10.25 to 12.3 inches.
The large lower air intakes at the front are now structured by horizontal struts. The diffuser insert in the rear apron is finished in Dark Shadow metallic. The sportier appearance is rounded off with 20-inch M light alloy wheels in Y-spoke design and fitted with staggered tyres.
The standard equipment has been enhanced to include sun protection glass on all Coupé and Gran Coupé models.
Adaptive LED headlights and the anti-dazzle high-beam assistant come as standard in these luxury sports cars. As an optional extra, the BMW Laserlights are offered via the Visibility Pack together with Shadowline which darkens the brow of the lens for enhanced road presence.
The new BMW 8 Series comes in three body styles, each providing its own interpretation of sporting flair and luxury. The 8 Series Coupé was developed in parallel with the BMW M8 GTE endurance racing car announced in 2018.
The new BMW 8 Series is priced from £72,225 RPP and is available to order now, with the first deliveries due this Spring.
