BMW is celebrating three decades of operations in Mexico with the launch of a special-edition M2, the BMW M2 Coupe 30 Years Edition. Though the M2 itself is less than a decade old—having debuted as the F87 model in 2015—the limited-edition model honours the company’s 30-year milestone in the country, where it has maintained a strong presence.

The M2 30 Years Edition is a locally built vehicle, produced at BMW’s San Luis Potosi plant, and designed by Mexican native José Casas. Only 30 units of this exclusive sports coupe will be produced, one for each year since the first BMW 3 Series E36 rolled off the assembly line at the Lerma Plant in Toluca back in 1994.

This limited-run version comes exclusively with a six-speed manual transmission and will be offered in two matte finishes from BMW’s Individual catalogue: Frozen Portimao Blue and Frozen Pure Grey. Inside, the M2 is outfitted with carbon bucket front seats, offering an immersive driving experience.

BMW memperkenalkan konsep Neue Klasse sebagai pratonton arah reka bentuk masa depan, yang akan memberi impak bukan sahaja kepada kenderaan elektrik tetapi juga kepada model enjin pembakaran dalaman mereka. Menurut Adrian van Hooydonk, ketua reka bentuk BMW, bahasa reka bentuk yang diperlihatkan dalam konsep sedan dan crossover Neue Klasse akan digunakan secara meluas di seluruh rangkaian, termasuk model berkuasa petrol.

Van Hooydonk menegaskan bahawa, walaupun terdapat perbezaan halus dalam reka bentuk antara kenderaan pembakaran dalaman dan elektrik, BMW akan memastikan bahawa kedua-dua jenis kenderaan ini mempunyai gaya yang padu dan moden. Ini bermakna pelanggan tidak perlu memilih antara estetika yang berbeza, walaupun memilih jenis pacuan yang berlainan.

BMW’s Neue Klasse concepts have given enthusiasts a preview of the brand’s future design direction, but it turns out that this influence will not be limited solely to its electric vehicles. According to Adrian van Hooydonk, BMW’s head of design, the design language showcased in the Neue Klasse sedan and X crossover concepts will be carried across the entire range, including combustion engine models.

Van Hooydonk emphasised that both petrol-powered and electric BMWs will adopt these new design cues, with subtle differences in their design elements and proportions to distinguish them. This is part of a broader strategy to offer modern, cohesive styling across all BMW vehicles, allowing customers to choose between internal combustion or electric drivetrains without feeling they are choosing between different aesthetics.
