BMW has introduced the updated M2 on our shores, at a price of Rs 1.03 lakh (ex-showroom).

The updates bring in minor exterior changes, new colour options, upgraded tech and an uprated powertrain.
Here is a look at the updated BMW M2:
BMW M2 Design
The exterior of the M2 remains more or less the same as before. The BMW M2 logo at the front and the rear comes in black with silver surrounds and the kidney grille up front houses horizontal elements.
You get an optional M Carbon Roof, which lowers the car’s center of gravity for better control over corners. The M2 sports 19-inch and 20-inch silver alloy wheels at the front and rear, respectively. The brake callipes are finished in a blue metallic shade as standard, and can also be had in an optional red finish.
Portimao Blue, Fire Red, Sao Paulo Yellow and Skyscraper Grey are the new metallic colours that will be offered with the updated M2. You also get the Brooklyn Grey, and Black Sapphire metallic colours to opt from. The only non-metallic shades are the Alpine White and M Zandvoort Blue options.

BMW M2 Interior And Features
The BMW M2’s interior now comes with a flat-bottom steering wheel which receives an optional Alcantara finish. The curved display houses the 14.9-inch infotainment and 12.3-inch digital driver display. The tech inside has been updated to the latest BMW Operating System 8.5. The M Sport seats finished in Vernasca leather can now also be had in a dualtone red and black colour. As an optional, you can opt for the M Carbon bucket seats for a sportier appeal inside.
The M2 also offers multiple airbags, multiple driver aids, cruise control, auto start-stop function, dynamic stability control, cornering brake control, and dynamic brake control.
BMW M2 Powertrain
The heart of the matter has been tweaked a little and made more powerful. The updated M2 gets a 3-litre six-cylinder turbo-petrol engine which now makes 480 PS (20 PS more) and up to 600 Nm. The engine can be had with either an 8-speed automatic transmission or an optional 6-speed manual.
The updated powertrain is quicker by 0.1 second and reaches the 100 kmph mark in just 4 seconds with the automatic and 4.2 seconds with the manual. In the 0-200 kmph sprint, the automatic version clocks a claimed 12.9 seconds, while it takes 13.7 seconds with the manual. In both cases, it is quicker than its predecessor by 0.6 seconds.
The car’s standard top speed is 250 kmph, but that can be increased to 285 kmph with the optional M Driver’s Package.
