German magazine Autobild is
reporting that a successor for the M1 will in fact be unveiled in 2016, after
the unveiling of the hybrid i8. The next M1 will be built as a combination
between performance and economy and will be powered by a V8 engine with direct
injection and a turbocharger. This engine’s an output will be placed somewhere
between 600 and 650 HP.The new M1 will be built using BMW’s "Efficient
Dynamics" program meaning that it will come with features like a
start-stop system and braking energy recovery. All of these features will be
combined with a carbon-fiber body and a total weight of 2,755 lbs, which will
make the next M1 a real competitor for models like the Meredes
SLS AMG GT and the Audi R8.
