evo UNWRAPPED is our new series examining the technical details of some of the world’s most exciting cars.
The BMW M2 aims to be one of those cars in 2016, following up from the wonderful 1M Coupe. Hunter Skipworth takes a look under the M2’s skin – and gets just a taste of the turbocharged inline-six in action.

The production quality. Good lord.
The engine is NOT what makes an M car, that’s the last thing almost – its the feel, aggressiveness, handling and yes the ‘feels’ – these aren’t muscle cars!! How light the car is would our weigh the engine (with-in reason).
i like this series and presenter
Wow , the 1st M car that I love … looks awesome
sweet ass car. the 1M had a slightly more aggressive stance though
I enjoyed that no bs just facts I’m a fan
Should I get the m2 or BMW 335d? Can’t really decide? :/
after watching that I’m left wondering which kidney to sell to get the down payment !!!
I want one!
Looks like a bodybuilder…not very attractive imho…and that scarred face.
Miami blue looks disappointing here, hope it’s just the video
chatty man lol, great review mate!
This video was just sublime. The music, audio levels, camera work, all perfect. The guy presenting didn’t seem exciting at first but as it turns out he was also superb in delivering the information without any issues. Please keep doing what you guys are doing cause this stuff is top notch.
I’d take this over the M3 or the M4…On manual please.
More EVO Unwrapped, fantastic!
these new M cars look too much like a normal m sports model with the optional splitters
What a great new show/sub-brand/awesome idea. Love it
imagine with chip , intake and exhaust
Damn sexy ass thing..
m2>sti/evo
BMW…. snore.
it looks like a clown car.
Yawn …
Fantastic, Evo!
this looks like estoril blue, not LLB.
Beautiful design, but, 365hp? Are u serious? My 2005 350z makes 400 hp… and it costed me 20 k. this is probably like 150 k usd…
Those weird fangs on the bumper are not doing it for me. 🙁
Another fantastic car from the BMW M performance group. LOVE my BMW!!!
Curb weight?
are the m4 turbos sequential or parallel ?
Great videos. Unwrapped is awesome z
And it sounds much better than the M3/M4 as well.
The replacement for my M135i at trade in time!
Notice the M2’s twisted driver’s seat? For cost-cutting reasons, the seat is not perpendicular to the steering wheel. It is set a few degrees pointed to the left. It is noticeable. This alone is a show-stopper for me.
Sounds nice
I dig these videos
I think the M2 is the true successor to the M3 heritage. It is the right size, has the right amount of power, and you can get a 6-speed! Before this car came out, I was thinking the 1M was the true successor to the M3 heritage for the same reasons (they are about the same size, but now the M2 is out and is closer to the size of the E46 M3).If you know BMWs, you know the E46 M3 was the last true M3. It has the amazing S54 engine (pretty much a race engine: individual throttle bodies, piston squirters, headers, etc. making a naturally aspirated 333 hp, 9000 rpm redline, but you can get a tune that makes it put out 354 hp. It won engine of the year awards for like 6 years in a row and is BMW’s most efficient engine to this day when it comes to horsepower/liter. The 3 cylinder turbo engine in the i8 actually beats it, but that’s a technicality.), and the E46 M3 is just visibly the right size for an M3. The new M3/M4 has become flabby, being the size of the V-10 M5/M6 previous generation cars.BMW needs to just set things right and change the alpha numeric nomenclature to what it should be. M2 becomes M3. M3/M4s become the M5/M6s, and the M5/M6s become the new 7 series in sedan and coupe flavors for the M7.
I like the guy, I don’t like the car. Too many gadgets (+/- buttons etc.) Come up with something pure for god’s sake and see us line up.
I really like this car…probably my favorite BMW.
Still I feel like its overpriced. They’ll probably sell well regardless, as this promises to be more of a drivers car than any other current BMW’s.
Nearly perfect, except for those ugly tail lights..
whats the name of the music in the background?
0-60 is 4.1 in the m4 I believe.
fuck mercedes.
