The upcoming track-focused evolution of the BMW 2 Series promises to be an exciting entry point into the world of racing for enthusiasts. Being developed by BMW M Motorsport, this track-only model is set to offer race-ready equipment in a relatively affordable package, making it an attractive option for both teams and newcomers to racing.
While the specific name of the car has not been revealed yet, given the involvement of the M division, it is likely to be based on either the M240i or the M2. The design cues point towards a connection with the M2, especially with the muscular body kit reminiscent of the M2 series. Speculation suggests that this model could be closely related to the upcoming M2 CS, adding even more excitement for fans of BMW’s racing heritage.
Featuring a carbon fiber roof panel, a larger rear spoiler, a roll cage, and an OMP racing seat for the driver, this coupe is shaping up to be a true track machine. While details about the engine remain undisclosed, it is expected to be a tuned version of the existing powertrain to meet the requirements of various racing series. With specific upgrades to the braking and suspension systems, the car aims to deliver top-notch performance on the track.
According to Björn Lellmann, the head of customer racing for BMW M Motorsport, the new 2 Series model is designed to provide grassroots racing teams and aspiring racers with access to BMW M Motorsport technology at a competitive level. This focus on customer satisfaction and accessibility underscores BMW’s commitment to bringing the thrill of racing to a wider audience.
More information about BMW’s track-ready 2 Series is set to be revealed in the coming months, with the coupe making its racing debut in 2026. Stay tuned for updates on this exciting addition to the BMW M Motorsport lineup.
