The BMW M2 has built its identity around compact dimensions, serious power and the kind of agile handling expected from a BMW M car. For 2027, BMW is expanding that formula in a significant new direction. For the first time, the BMW M2 will be available with the M xDrive all-wheel-drive system.
The new 2027 BMW M2 with M xDrive pairs a 473-horsepower inline six-cylinder engine with an intelligent all-wheel-drive system engineered to improve traction, acceleration, stability and year-round usability without giving up the performance character at the heart of the M2. And for drivers interested in experiencing the latest from BMW M here in New Jersey, Flemington BMW is an authorized BMW M Certified Center with specialized M expertise, training and facilities.
What Is New About the 2027 BMW M2 with M xDrive?
Until now, M xDrive hasn't been offered on the BMW M2. The 2027 model expands the M2 lineup by making BMW M's performance-focused all-wheel-drive technology available in this compact sports car for the first time. M xDrive distributes power between the front and rear axles according to driving conditions. It works alongside the Active M Differential, which can vary the distribution of power between the rear wheels.
The result is designed to deliver enhanced traction while preserving the agile, rear-wheel-drive-oriented dynamics drivers expect from an M car. According to BMW, that additional traction also allows the M2 with M xDrive to accelerate even faster while improving directional stability.
473 Horsepower from an M TwinPower Turbo Inline-Six
Under the hood, the 2027 BMW M2 with M xDrive uses a six-cylinder inline engine with BMW M TwinPower Turbo technology producing 473 horsepower. That power is then managed by the M xDrive system based on the driving situation. Rather than simply using all-wheel drive as a tool for challenging weather, BMW has integrated the system around performance. Enhanced traction can help the M2 put its power down more effectively during acceleration while maintaining the responsive handling central to the car's character.

More Performance Without Making the M2 a Fair-Weather Car
Adding M xDrive also broadens when and where drivers can enjoy the M2. BMW describes the new configuration as delivering M performance through every season and in almost any road conditions. That's particularly relevant for drivers in New Jersey, where the same car may encounter hot summer pavement, heavy rain and cold winter conditions throughout the year. The combination of M xDrive and the Active M Differential is designed to provide the additional traction of all-wheel drive without turning the M2 into something disconnected from its performance roots. It's still an M2. There are simply more opportunities to enjoy it.
Why Buy an M Model from an M Certified Center?
A new M2 is exactly the kind of vehicle that makes Flemington BMW's status as an M Certified BMW Center especially relevant.
