BMW has whipped the covers off the M2 Competition, two weeks after the hottest compact M car was leaked on the BMW Australia website.
As we learned on April 9, the Competition will be powered by a twin-turbo version of the 3.0-litre inline-six engine powering the regular M2. Power has been bumped from 272kW to 302kW, and peak torque jumps from 465Nm to 550Nm. That torque figure is a match for the M4 Competition.
The Buick Enspire concept has been revealed ahead of the 2018 Beijing motor show, which kicks off next week.
