2024 BMW M8: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The 2024 BMW M8 is essentially a carryover from 2023. The only change is that the rear spoiler moved from standard to optional equipment.
About the 2024 BMW M8
1st generation M8 (2020-present in the U.S.), late-cycle year after the 2023 update.
BMW positions the M8 as one of its highest-ranking M models: a very fast luxury grand tourer that blends big V8 power with a rich cabin and long-distance comfort. It is less about stripped-down track focus and more about delivering supercar pace, all-wheel-drive traction, and upscale materials in a polished road car. The body-style choice shapes the experience: the coupe and convertible lean into two-door drama, while the Gran Coupe adds real rear-seat usefulness.
The M8 Competition comes as a two-door coupe or convertible, pairing 617 horsepower with a richly finished cabin and all-wheel drive. The four-door M8 Competition Gran Coupe adds easier rear-seat access, four-zone climate control, and a carbon-fiber roof. Every version has a 12.3-inch touchscreen, navigation, a head-up display, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
