Is the BMW M2 About to Get an All-Wheel Drive Option? CarExpert explores the possibility of an all-wheel drive version of the BMW M2, based on a recent listing on BMW's US website. The listing, which has since been removed, confirmed the long-rumored addition of an all-wheel drive variant to the entry-level M car. The '2027' description suggests a launch overseas in the second half of 2026. But here's where it gets controversial... While BMW Australia couldn't confirm the M2 xDrive or its availability in local showrooms, the addition of xDrive promises even faster acceleration for the M2. The current M2 CS already boasts a formidable 3.8-second 0-100km/h claim and a 302km/h top speed. The M2 has traditionally been a rear-wheel drive sports coupe, but the M3 and M4 have offered all-wheel drive since 2021. The M2 xDrive is expected to use the same xDrive system as the M3 and M4, which can send power rearwards, preserving the rear-wheel drive character the M2 is praised for. However, the addition of an all-wheel drive M2 doesn't necessarily spell the end of rear-wheel drive variants. The M3 and M4 are still available in rear-wheel drive with a manual transmission. Higher-spec models use xDrive and the eight-speed automatic transmission as standard, including top-spec CS versions. So, what do you think? Is the M2 about to get an all-wheel drive option?
