Developed by BMW M GmbH, the high performance division of BMW, the M2 is the motorsport version of BMW’s 2 Series supercar, first showcased at the North American International Auto Show in 2016, commencing production that same year. It’s also the finest example of BMW’s simple but efficient engineering and automotive prowess.
Powered on a 3.0-litre M TwinPpower Turbo six-cylinder engine, the M2 pumps out 370 bhp on a rear-wheel drive system, and can be equipped with either a 6-speed manual or 7-speed dual-clutch transmission with a ‘Smokey Burnout’ mode which, as you can imagine, makes it an ideal car for our Drifting Experiences.
It clocks up some astounding speed stats to boot as well, revving from 0 - 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, with top speeds of 155 mph possible to achieve under the hands of the right driver.
