  • Intake ports optimized for higher flow
  • Enlarged twin-scroll turbochargers
  • Electric blow-off valves integrated into the compressor housing
  • Redesigned air intake manifold and connection between air ducts for both cylinder banks ensures even pulsation during gas exchange, resulting in higher torque at lower engine speeds
  • Fuel injectors maximum pressure increased from 2,900 psi to 5,076 psi
  • New aluminium alloy increases engine block strength
  • Wire- arc sprayed iron coating for the cylinder walls
  • Reinforced, Grafal-coated pistons and optimized piston rings
  • Viscous damper on the crankshaft minimizes torsional vibration
  • Thermal shielding and the cooling circulation systems undergone extensive modification
  • Upstream coolant radiator helps manage engine's temperature during extremely spirited driving


Transmission / xDrive
  • Eight-speed Steptronic Sport transmission
  • Weight reducing design
  • Newly developed controller adapts shift parameters by networking with Navigation system (for example, controller avoids unnecessary gear shifts between two corners that follow in quick succession, or controller downshifts early when approaching an intersection to use engine braking to slow car)
  • Wider gear ratio spread
  • Optimized hydraulics control for sharper gear shifts
  • New torsion dampers
  • Shift paddles
  • Launch Control
  • Fully variable distribution of drive torque between the front and rear wheels
  • All torque is directed to rear wheels in situations when all-wheel drive is not needed

Suspension
  • Double-wishbone front axle / five-link rear axle
  • Torsion struts on front axle / load-bearing strut on rear axle
  • Independent rubber bearings and additional damping plates at rear axle
  • Special wheel hubs and wishbones allow camber values on both axles to be raised as far as possible
  • Adaptive M suspension standard on all 8 Series Coupe


Active Roll Stabilization
  • Active roll stabilization optional for M850i xDrive Coupe
  • Electric swivel motors on the front and rear anti-roll bars reduce body movement
  • Increases comfort when driving straight ahead by decoupling the anti-roll bar connection between wheels of an axle to counteract road imperfections


Integral Active Steering
  • Integral Active Steering standard
  • Rear wheel steering up to 2.5 degrees
  • Rear wheels steered in opposite direction of front wheels up to 45 mph (up to 55 mph in SPORT or SPORT+ modes)
  • Rear wheels steered in same direction as front wheels above 45 mph (above 55 mph in SPORT or SPORT+ modes)


M Sport Brakes / Wheels
  • 4-piston fixed-caliper brakes front / Single-piston floating-caliper brakes rear
  • Inner-vented brake discs and model-specific brake pads
  • 20-inch M light-alloy wheels in Frozen Cerium Grey metallic with high gloss polished face
  • 245/35R20 tires front and 275/30R20 tires rear


Weight Optimization / Construction / CFRP
  • CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic): center tunnel, optional CFRP roof, other select body parts via optional Carbon Package
  • Optional Carbon Package: CFRP air intake bars, exterior mirror caps, rear spoiler, rear diffuser
  • Aluminum: front and rear supporting structures, roof, doors, hood, front firewall, front axle, wheel carriers, forged control arms
  • Magnesium: passenger compartment bracing tube
  • Lightweight steel: rear axle


Aerodynamics
  • Almost fully covered underbody
  • Active air flap control with adjustable kidney grille slats
  • Air Curtains including Air Breathers
  • Narrow exterior mirror bases mounted directly on the side window weather strips
  • Double-bubble roof (also available in optional CFRP)


Lighting
  • Standard Full LED headlights with BMW LaserLight technology
  • All-LED L-Shaped rear lights


BMW Digital Key
  • NFC technology allows 8 Series Coupe to be locked / unlocked from smartphone by holding it up to door handle
  • Can be shared with up to five other people via BMW Connected App


Interior
  • Standard premium Merino Individual leather with extended leather
  • Decorative contrast stitching
  • Optional upgraded Climate seats for driver and front passenger
  • Optional glass applications - gear selector, iDrive controller, start/stop button, volume button in glass and illuminated '8' visible through glass surface of the gear selector


M Performance / M Sport Exclusive Features
  • M leather steering wheel
  • Anthracite BMW Individual headliner
  • M pedals
  • M driver’s footrest
  • Apecial floor mats
  • Illuminated door sills with M logo
  • Instrument cluster displays M logo


Technology / Driving Assistance
  • 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster
  • 10.25-inch iDrive control display
  • Standard Harman Kardon audio system with sixteen speakers
  • Standard Head-Up Display (HUD) on all 8 Series Coupe with larger projection area and additional content
  • Standard Cruise Control with braking function and Collision and Pedestrian Warning with City Braking function
  • Standard Park Distance Control (PDC)
  • Standard Parking Assistant (can now exit parallel parking spaces also) with Reversing Assistant
  • Standard camera system with Rear, Top View, Panorama View and 3D View
  • Standard Remote Software Upgrade (over the air updates)

  • Optional Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go function
  • Optional Driving Assistant Professional includes Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go, Steering and Lane Control Assistant, Lane Keeping Assistant with Active Side Collision Protection
  • Optional BMW Night Vision system


Intelligent Networking
  • Transmission controller networks with navigation system to adapt shift parameters intelligently (for example, controller avoids unnecessary gear shifts between two corners that follow in quick succession, or controller downshifts early when approaching an intersection to use engine braking to slow car)
  • Auto Start Stop adapts to driving situation based on navigation data and by use of cameras and radar sensors of the optional driver assistance systems to prevent inefficient engine shutdown – for example when stopping briefly at junctions with yield signs. The movement of vehicles ahead is registered in order to determine the ideal moment for stopping and starting the engine.
  • Coasting function efficient enhanced. When traveling at speeds between 9 – 99 mph, powertrain is decoupled as soon as the driver lifts off the accelerator. The switch to this “sail” mode only takes place in driving situations in which it appears worthwhile and which doesn’t compromise comfort or performance. If the accelerator is released very suddenly for instance, the powertrain stays connected in order to use the engine’s drag torque to decelerate.


Premium Upgrade Options
  • Climate seats for driver and front passenger
  • Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System with 16-channel amplifier with 1,375 watts output, and 16 partly illuminated speakers
  • Optional glass applications (gear selector, iDrive controller, start/stop button, volume button)
