BMW has recently unveiled the Gran Coupe concept and has released a new set of drawings depicting it in early stages of development. However, most sources believe the new drawings give a clue about the new 2012 BMW 8 Series. Also, new 2012 BMW 8 Series info has emerged recently on the web. The 2012 BMW 8 Series will be a four-door coupe that will enter the race alongside the Mercedes CLS and the Audi A5 Sportback. However, this is still just a rumor and the company has not yet officially confirmed that the 2012 BMW 8 Series will go into production. The 2012 BMW 8 Series could also be designed as a rival for the upcoming Audi A7.
The 2012 BMW 8 Series info available at this moment is purely speculative, but if the new
production model will be based on the BMW Gran Coupe concept, we do know some of its characteristics. The 2012 BMW 8 Series will be 100 millimeters lower than the current 5 Series with a total height of just 1.40 meters. This means it will be a GT and a sportscar.
The 2012 BMW 8 Series will offer a choice between 8 and 6 cylinder engines with the company's new 8-speed transmission.
We'll have more 2012 BMW 8 Series info as soon as it becomes available.
