10 Things To Know About The All-New BMW 8 Series
It’s officially here! After a lengthy teaser campaign comprising two concepts and a range of teaser shots, the new BMW 8 Series has been unveiled at the 2018 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, to celebrate the M8 GTE taking part in the historic race. The new 8 Series Coupe forms a new halo for the BMW brand, hoping to re-inject dynamism into the German marque once famed for producing the finest driver’s cars in the world. Ahead of its showroom debut later this year, here are ten things to know about the new luxury coupe from BMW.
1 – BMW M8 On The WayBMW hasn’t kept this one a secret, confirming along with the original 8 Series Concept that there would be an M version. As to what’s going to be powering it, expect similar running gear to the new M5, with at least 600 hp being developed by a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8, channeling power to all 4 wheels through BMW’s M-xDrive system. Expect the M8 in its various forms to do battle with the Mercedes-AMG GT four-door and AMG S63 Coupe.
2 – The 8 Series Will Be Available As Coupe and Gran CoupeEven though it’s debuted in coupe form, the 8 Series will get a 4-door coupe version too in the form of the 8 Series Gran Coupe. We already know this will get an M version too, as confirmed by the M8 Gran Coupe concept. The 8 Series will also spawn a convertible. Though BMW has yet to confirm this through official channels, test mules have been spotted showing the convertible with a retractable soft-top.
3 – Production car Was Developed Alongside RacecarIt’s no Ford GT, with a built-in FIA-spec roll cage, but the 8 Series in road-going specification was developed alongside the M8 GTE racecar. It wasn’t just the forthcoming M8 either, but the chassis of the standard 8 Series too, so expect it to be one of the most engaging chassis BMW has produced in quite some time. It also means the 8 Series benefits from lightweight construction thanks to aluminum, magnesium, and carbon fiber reinforced plastic in its construction.
4 – The 8 Series Revives A Nearly 30-Year-Old NameNearly three decades ago, in 1989, the very first BMW 8 Series debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The high end coupe remained in production for 10 years, and was one of the most iconic BMWs ever produced – slotting in higher than the 6 Series and offering greater refinement, luxury, and importantly, performance.
5 – No More 6 Series CoupesIn much the same way as the E31 8 Series signaled the end of the 6 Series, so too does the G15 8 Series. Though it isn’t actually a replacement for the 6 Series Coupe, once again targeting higher levels of luxury and performance, it has however heralded the end of the 6 Series Coupe, Gran Coupe, and Convertibles, with the only 6 remaining being the 6 Series GT – which isn’t anything like the 6 Coupe.
6 – No 4 Cylinders HereThe original 8 Series was the first road-going vehicle to mate a V12 engine to a 6-speed manual gearbox, and it also offered no fewer than 8 cylinders under the hood. The new one doesn’t have a V12, or at least not yet, but you won’t find fewer than 6 here. In a world full of downsizing, the smallest engine the 8 Series will feature is a 3.0-liter straight 6 diesel engine. We’re unlikely to get that in the USA, but the 4.4-liter V8 gasoline motor is definitely coming, meaning the 8 Series is exclusive and uniquely anti-downsizing.
7 – All Wheel Drive StandardThough BMW is famed for its rear-wheel drive vehicles providing exceptional driving dynamics, the 8 Series doesn’t offer rear-wheel drive at all. Both the 840d and M850i are solely available with xDrive all-wheel drive, meaning the 8 Series isn’t designed with smoky hoonery in mind, but rather control and precision. However, it remains rear-biased to ensure the hallowed dynamics of BMW remain in tact despite the extra layer of control.
8 – Latest generation of N63 Engine Built For 8 SeriesBMW’s N63 engine has been a staple for the brand’s high-end machinery for some time, featuring in the 5, 6, and 7 Series as well as the X5 and X6. Tuned by BMW M, the N63 has been used now in two generations of M5. But the latest Technical Update (N63B44T3) for the 8 Series takes a 68 horsepower bump in power (now at 523 hp), while emission performance has been optimized to comply with Euro 6d-TEMP emissions standards. Torque is an impressive 553 lb-ft, enabling a 0-62 mph sprint of just 3.7 seconds.
9 – Smaller Than It Looks, Handles Smaller StillIf you’ve been on the internet at all lately, you’ll likely have seen the M8 GTE being compared to all manner of cruise ships owing to its seemingly large dimensions. But the 8 Series is actually fairly compact. Measuring in at 190.9 inches in length, the 8 Series is shorter than several other vehicles on the market, including the Volvo S90 (195.4 inches), the Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan (193.8 inches), and only 8.3 inches longer than the 4 Series Coupe (182.6 inches). There’s also active all wheel steering to help it handle better and maneuver easier at any speed.
10 – Slimmest Headlights Of Any BMW, With Lasers!This isn’t going to really be a game-changing fact, but one to impress your friends with at the bar. The 8 Series features the slimmest headlights of any BMW produced yet. LED headlights are standard, but available as an option are Adaptive LED headlights and BMW Laserlight with Selective Beam, providing a high beam range of up to nearly 2000 feet.

5 Things You Need To Know About The 2019 BMW X5
BMW flew us out to Atlanta, Georgia to drive the all-new, fourth generation X5. While we were there, we filmed a video with the X5 (shown below). Also be sure to check out our full written review on the 2019 X5.
The previous X5 was never one of our favorite luxury SUVs. It wasn't quite as elegant as a Range Rover, nor as sporty as a Porsche Cayenne. With this new generation, BMW has thrown out a lot of what was starting to feel stale about its models, and embraced a new ethos of technology and luxury. Though the changes on the outside aren't drastic, inside the new X5 has taken a huge leap forward, making it feel like it's worth every bit of the $81,000 as-tested price.
After driving the X5 around Atlanta, we came up with a list of our top five favorite features that we think you should know about.
Freaking Laser HeadlightsOne of the coolest features of the new X5 has to be the available Laserlight headlights. We didn't have the chance to drive the car at night, but this new technology is around 30% more efficient than LEDs and can illuminate around double the distance. While this is all very nice, the biggest advantage of laser headlights is that they are fully adaptive and can cut out specific portions of the high beams based on when it detects oncoming cars, thus always producing as much light as possible.
Unfortunately, US regulations do not currently permit the use of fully adaptive Laser headlights, so the X5 simply dims the high beams completely when it detects oncoming cars, just like every other adaptive high beam system in the US. We've spoken to BMW about what would happen if the regulation changed, and unfortunately adding the fully adaptive lights would take more than just a software change.
Glass Shifter And iDrive ControllerInside is where the BMW made the biggest changes with the new X5. Our test model was filled to the brim with luxury including massaging seats. One of our favorite options was the glass shifter and iDrive controller option for a bargain $650. This package replaces the shifter with a beautiful piece of glass, which houses an illuminated letter X in the center. The iDrive control for the latest iDrive 7, one of the best infotainment systems on the market, also feels like it is extremely high quality.
Gesture ControlsBMW's latest iteration of iDrive has some interesting new features including a new virtual display that replaces the physical gauge cluster. We also had a chance to play around with the gesture controls, which first arrived on the 7 Series. The infotainment system can be controlled using hand motions. For example, to change the volume, you simply twist your finger in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction. The gesture controls were fun to play around with on the test drive, but we prefer to use the iDrive control or the touchscreen for most basic functions. Those who like to talk a lot with their hands may also find radio stations changing more often than they'd like.
An Off-Roading BeastOn our first drive, BMW had us take the X5 off-road, where we were shocked at how well it handled itself. Few people will ever take their $80,000-plus SUV through a tough off-road trail, but it's nice to know you can. The X5 easily navigated steep dirt includes and gradients, thanks to an off-road cruise control that crawls down hills without needing to use the pedals. Combine that with a high-resolution 360-degree camera and off-roading in the X5 is extremely easy.
The Forbidden Quad-Turbo Diesel EngineOn our first drive event, we only had the chance to drive the X5 xDrive40i trim, which is powered by a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six producing 340 horsepower. The US will also receive the xDrive50i, which has a twin-turbo V8 pumping out 462 hp. While a plug-in hybrid version is also on the way, the US won't receive the two diesel variants of the X5.
This is a shame because BMW brought the new M50d variant to the launch event. We begged BMW to let us drive it but it was strictly off limits for the US-based journalists. This was extremely disappointing because the M50d is powered by a quad-turbocharged inline-six making 400 hp and 560 lb-ft of torque.
