July 2018
It would be reasonable to expect the US-only M2 Racing (new Spec class?) to appear in early 2020 and the worldwide M2 CSL – in mid-2020 as MY2021, for a one year run.
MY2020 G30 530i and 540i and G32 640i will get the updated B46 (no change in output) and B58 (bumped to 335hp) engines as predicted previously, along with the new instrument panel as standard. M550i will move to the new 530hp N63.
F44 2GC will arrive in late 2019 as MY2020. The engines are the 228hp familiar from X1 and X2 and the 300hp we’ll soon see in X2.
July 2018 part deux
Funny enough, F94 X7M was (is?) under consideration.
G24 (next 3GT) has been canceled. Good riddance.
G26 will keep the hatchback. There are hints that it’s been delayed until 07/21.
At this time the only engine planned for G42 2er Coupe is B48.
I20 iNext will have at least two performance levels.
August 2018
G01 X3 and G02 X4 will be getting the new dash next year for MY2020. That’s also when we’ll see the hybrid X3 xDrive30e with the same motor as the upcoming G20 330e, uprated to 275hp.
US G05 X5 xDrive40d (aka 30d in all other countries) is somehow still alive for the release next year.
EOP for F34 and F36 has been moved to 06/21. The former is likely to compensate for the cancellation of G24 and the latter should be seen as evidence of the next 4GC needing extra development time so it can become a more interesting (unusual?) car than its predecessor.
