The BMW M2 is the smallest full M car in the BMW range and one of the most focused driver cars the brand sells. It uses a compact coupe body, a powerful turbocharged six-cylinder engine and a chassis tuned for sharp responses, giving it a more concentrated feel than larger M models. The M2 is heavier and more sophisticated than earlier generations, but it keeps the key ingredients enthusiasts expect: strong rear-drive balance, serious acceleration and a playful character when driven hard. It is not the most practical BMW, and that is part of its appeal. The M2 suits drivers who want a modern performance coupe with genuine M attitude in a relatively compact package.
