Debuting earlier this year<\/a>, BMW has announced the arrival of the M2 Competition with a refreshed look and plenty of new tech inside and out.<\/p>\n

The latest version of the M2 receives a plethora of new equipment including a new dual exhaust system with two electrically-controlled flaps, a new cooling system, new M mirrors, larger redesigned signature double-kidney high-gloss black grille and larger functional air vents in the front bumper.<\/p>\n

Customers can now choose two distinct paint finishes for the exterior that are both new for the M2 Competition; Sunset Orange Metallic and Hockenheim Silver Metallic.<\/p>\n

Inside, the latest M2 is fitted with a leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel, carbon fibre trim, red push-start engine button plus a redesigned dashboard cluster with Black panel technology<\/p>\n

The optional extras list also grows and now includes M Sport Bucket seats with integrated\u00a0headrests and illuminated M2 badge and M sport brakes bolted to each corner with grey paint calipers.<\/p>\n

Underneath the bonnet is a new six-cylinder petrol engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. With a three-litre displacement, the unit produces 410 horsepower and 550 Nm of torque and channels it to the rear end via either a six-speed manual gearbox or an M DCT (M Double Clutch Transmission).<\/p>\n

With that said, the M2 launches from 0-100 km\/h in 4.2 seconds (4.4 with the manual gearbox) before hitting a top speed of 250 km\/h, 280 km\/h with the optional M Driver’s package.<\/p>\n

The M2 Competition replaces the M2 coupe and should arrive in the GCC later this year or early 2019.<\/p>\n
