Sporting a gorgeous silhouette, the BMW 8-Series Concept debuted at the 2017 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este. Minus a few details, the concept should pretty much represent the production BMW 8-Series that is expected to hit markets in 2018. Resurrecting the “8-Series” moniker, an M8 version has also already been announced, with the prototype shown at the ‘Ring.
The month of May shines a bit with fewer recalls recorded compared to previous months. Here’s the list.
BMW gave their entry level coupe/convertible, the 2-Series, a refresh which includes a list of minor tweaks. The refresh applies to the whole range of 2-Series cars, starting from the pedestrian base models all the way up to the fire-breathing M2. A new model, M240i M, is also slipped in to form a link between the normal 2-Series and the M2.
In the month of April, several manufacturers have announced recalls that include passenger cars, electric cars, trucks and even a full-size V12 sedan.
Here are the recalls that occurred during the month of February.
Right after spicing up their 4-series range, it was quite obvious that BMW will turn their attention towards the 3-series. Now they have given the range-topping M3 the same treatment. BMW gave it a refresh quite recently in May 2015 and this refresh gives it nothing but a small nip and tuck.
After spinning off from the sensible 3-Series sedan, the BMW 4-Series range of coupes has been around for a few years now. The whole 4-Series family, which includes the Coupe, Cabriolet, Gran Coupe and the M4, has been given a small refresh for 2017 but you need a BMW-fanboy eye to spot the changes.
The BMW 6-Series is offered in Coupe, Cabriolet and 4-door GranCoupe body styles all of which have been accepted well in the market. As the last revision for the 6-Series range was done in 2012, it was due for an update. BMW has now officially released the 2018 6-Series, although it’s hard to see the changes.
The 5-series is one of BMW’s most popular models. Hot on the heels of the redesigned Mercedes-Benz E-Class comes the all-new 2017-2018 5-Series with a refreshed look and mechanicals, with a new range of powerplants to boot.
Here’s a list of all the recalls for the month of September, some in the United States and some globally.
